Thanks to my Boots, Superdrug and Debenhams Beauty Cards I was able to get a few bargains plus I had a £20 Boots voucher.
And because it's almost Christmas I've been in the mood for baking. I'm not the best, I'm probably the worst. The only thing I can make (that is edible) is pavlova. My cakes and buns are similar in weight and texture to that of a brick so I've given up in that area but I LOVE shortbread and am determined to make some for Christmas. I've tried a few times and they either end up like rubber or concrete but I'm not giving up just yet and bought some cute cookie cutters to atleast make my feeble attempts look nice.
If you have any good shortbread recipes please let me know in the comments.
I love home made baking at Christmas. For me, Christmas is home made mince pies, sausage rolls and cheese straws. Not traditionally Christmas food, but it's what my family make every year. Plus everything tastes 10 times better when it's home made. I'm sure your shortbread will be yummy! Plus those cutters are super cute :)

Let us know how the Christmas Eve candle smells, I'm obsessed with Christmas smells at the moment! Good luck with the baking! xx
ReplyDeleteChristmas Eve is lovely but it doesn't smell like xmas to me. I expected it to smell spicy like cinnamon or like a real xmas tree but it's quite a light fruity scent.
DeleteThanks, I'll need all the luck I can get! haha

Oooh the Christmas eve yankee candle smells lush! I really want to get the volumizing Loreal spray! Let us know how you get on with that one! :) xxx
ReplyDeleteI was going to get the volumizing spray but went for the straight version instead as my hair is a curly mofo! Haven't tried it out yet but I'll try it out this week. :)

I got some Christmas candles last week, I got the Cherries on Snow one, just because it sounded like my blog name, and the Christmas Cookie one. Can't wait to burn them!
ReplyDeleteI was burning Christmas Cookie last week, it's lovely. :) I'll be burning Cherries On Snow tomorrow, it smells so nice through the packaging.

ReplyDeleteI love it too. Was really impressed the first time I tried it but the scent really annoys me.

I'm really not a fan of the scent but it seems to be working. I want to try a few other things from the Deep Sleep range now.

Wow fab haul! I really want to try Rose Jam Bubbleroon - it always smells so great whenever I see it in LUSH xx

I'm very rarely in LUSH but I'm a bit rose obsessed at the minute so had to get it. :) Smells gorgeous but haven't used it yet.
