How early is too early?

I'm all for easing in gently - taking your time and getting prepared without all the hustle and bustle. Otherwise, the stress takes away from the fun that can be had.

But I have my limits!

I took this photo in ASDA on...wait for it...5th August!

That's the middle of the summer holidays - in fact, it was before we'd even been on our family summer holiday.

What's that all about?!

When do you start preparing for Chrimbo? Where is the line between getting a head start and ruining the whole season by making it last half the bloody year?

Lights! Camera! CHRISTMAS!

It would seem that not everyone realises there are still some 23 days until Christmas. Take Rio de Janeiro for example. Not at all easing into the season - oh no - they just leapt in with both feet.

And it was spectacular!

As you stand in the drizzle around a spindly fir, waiting for the mayor/minor local celeb/local newspaper competition winner to switch on the much-anticipated 27 fairy lights, try not to be jealous.

#GetYourFestiveOn however you can. We can't all be Rio!

Wo! Ho! Ho!

I'm doing it. I'm going to attempt another month of daily posts and, as it's December, things are about to get festive.

Today I put together an afternoon snack to combat my incredible sleep deprivation. And it looked like this. All I needed was a sprig of holly on my tea and it'd be Christmas on a plate.

Epic.

Join me for a ride on Santa's sleigh straight to Christmas Day and #GetYourFestiveOn

 

Easing you into the season, one mince pie at a time
