last post for the year

well we had a wonderful xmas, quiet, but wonderful, the dooroo's and aunty S stayed with us xmas eve, and the Cheque cooked us the most scrumptious meal....to start with creamed garlic prawns on jasmine rice, (i dont know how he cooks his rice, but it is always perfect) followed by rib eye, smashed potatoes, topped with baby corn and asparagus wrapped in smoked salmon and hollandaise sauce...yummmo. dessert was meant to be induvitual puddings fruit or chocolate ....mmm choices! with brandy custard, cream and ice-cream, but we were to full and had them the next day!!!

The pinq's have a tradition of always opening one gift on xmas eve, and seeing they couldnt be with us this year we got the conference call thing happening with them on loud speaker and we opened our gifts to each other on the phone, it was heaps of fun, very funny, (and im sure 40mins later has cost a fortune!!!

we were up early xmas morning to see the cheque off to work...aaahhh the glory of being a chef and having to feed the lazy people that couldnt be bothered making there own xmas lunch!! (do it your self next year people....i want my hubby home for xmas...just once...)

we had a lovely seafood lunch (xmas was at my house this year..i have the pool) but i have to say it wasn't warm enough to swim).

Master Dozer didnt return home from his "road trip" with his father till 4.00 christmas day afternoon, so it was a dreary moring waiting for him to arrive home! (we just wanted to open our pressies), but once he was home and the cheque was home from work we were right into it!!! paper flying every where, bows, ribbon and sparkles galore!!! aaah it was great to see...and guess what, i didnt take one blasted photo!!!!! heellooo i hear you all say.... arn't you the happy snap queeen scrapbooker.. well yes i am , but a slack a$$ at the same time!! hehe..

my beautiful husband made me lobster for dinner!!!

Boxing day was spent at the dales, having xmas #2 it was lovely,
and then bright and early this morning... i mean even before the birds had a chance to wake me, (3.30am) we were up, and the cheque and Master Dozer headed off to Sydney, Miss Hiccup and I will follow in a couple of days!

So i am here a 6.15am in total silence, (except for a few crows, and a noisy cockatoo) having a cuppa, chatting away with you.... i may just stay in my jammies all day!!!

so MERRY XMAS...HAPPY NEW YEAR....3 cheers and up ya bum!!!
