Twelve days stretching into many ...!

Because of my trip to Paris, I didn't open my 12 Days presents for Days 4 and 5...So they were late! But they were:

Day 4

was a lovely little zippered bag, some shiny glittery gold ribbon (which you can see used on some cards over at The Teapot ) and some chocolate coinage.

Day 5

 was this lovely little recipe book, some more chocolate coinage, and a Cadbury's hot chocolate drink sachet! The book is full of lovely recipes, most of which I could happily make for myself, never mind for gifts! I'm definitely going to try the elderflower cordial, I really like the sound of grape jelly, and some of the other chutney and jam recipes, and there are lots of baked goodies too - fudgy coconut brownies,chocolate-chestnut cupcakes, and loads more! Not so good for the healthy eating kick though!!

Day 6...well, I actually forgot Day 6. And Day 7! I didn't open anything yesterday and it is only as I type this that I realise I haven't opened one today!! I'm really stretching this out aren't I ?!

I'll let you know what else I've got in a couple of days!

I almost forgot - I need to welcome Flourgirl and Trudie.

Trudie's blog is over at Trudie's Cottage but I don't have a blog to link to for Flourgirl...do let me know if you have a blog, Flourgirl. Thank you for following mine!
