Christmas photos

Finally I've gotten around to uploading them. Wellington put on a gorgeous day for us. The best kind of day for eating, drinking and reading books in the sunshine.

Christmas breakfast - bagels and fruit salad
The tree

Our kiwiana angel

On the reverse side, the real Angel :-)
Pommy flatmate got all the ingredients for trifle. A not so subtle hint...


Argentine wine and Julia Child. I am easy to buy for.

She's moving out so she got stuff to start her own garden. Whether she wanted it or not.

Nibbles in the backyard.
Being our day off we had to do the washing and a bit of gardening too.

Buquebus didn't miss out. We gave him wrapping paper to tear up.

BBQ dinner. How kiwi of us (except for that pom - those are soy sausages...) Check out that salad plate.

The queen of pims cups. Just the thing on a hot day.

Didn't she do a good job?! I still can't believe they buy trifles from Tescos in England. Nothing like homemade.
When I got home to the farm a few days ago I got some other awesome prezzies - very spoilt this year. Annabel Langbein's Free Range in the City cookbook, NZ gardener garden diary, a knit your own boyfriend kit (thanks to my cheeky niece), a couple of good books and babushka measuring cups (red ones!).
