Practice…
… Christmas lunch with your kids. If you have a child who is about 4 or 5 who might be expected to behave and join in at Christmas lunch, it might be a good idea to have a little practice run with paper hats, crackers and a joke-telling – not necessarily an entire turkey and brussel sprouts. If they’ve never really done it before it’s handy that on the day they have some idea of what’s expected of them.
What my Christmas lunch looks like: enough to frighten any toddler
Listen to…
… The episode “Fiasco!” by This American Life. If you’re not aware of This American Life already, give it a try. It’s a 50min-or-so podcast (available on iTunes), like a sort of very long edition of… I don’t know… Woman’s Hour or something, on a different theme every time. Great fun – and Fiasco! is just absolutely brilliant.
Perve over…
RoCo terrariums, if you are a terrarium fancier. Just… breathtaking.
Love the door in the first pic and the wonderful Christmas decorations and the men – well they look like all our men a bit grumpy and annoyed at any photo shoot hehe x
I *love* Fiasco! I don’t know how many times I’ve listened to it now but it makes me cry laughing. Perfect for when you need cheering up…
