    I know.I'm very late! But I have to say the best thing I got for Christmas was....The Spirit of Christmas :)

    I can maybe say this now without being lynched!! :eek:

    This was my first celebration of Christmas for 10 years. I had the house lit up like an airport and I got into it :)

    My presents.. I got 15 cook books from friends that I had grumbled at over the years :o (I love cooking)

    My hubby got me a fantastic multi chef thingy. (Ya I feed people :D)

    My 2 most precious, my grown up babies, got me and my partner a week in Slovakia!!!

    Get me out of the kitchen :D:D:D
