Me: It's late. I've had _way_ too little sleep. I put up the decorations on Christmas Eve*.

Also me: But I could at least put on the Christmas table runner...

Let's just say I've earned this late night C-drama session.

I think it is safe to say that as far as Christmas shopping goes, I'm all done. Still got festive food to make, but that will be in my own time, in my own house, without the hoardes of people. #ChristmasPrep

@John it's in the oven now. Only doing 120C because it's fan forced. #food #cooking #fruitcake #christmasprep

Into the oven. One of the times i'm glad it has so much capacity. Had to wait for baked veg to finish in the bottom left oven, then put the 2 loaf tins in there. #cooking #baking #food #ChristmasPrep

Had a kindy nap while boiled fruitcake mix cooled, then lined the pans and poured the mix in. Roughly divided by my "looks about right" feeling rather than measured out. #food #fruitcake #christmasprep

Making 4 boiled fruitcakes today. Not for me - gifts. So hoping they work out. It's a bigger batch than i normally do (2 at a time). Feel like i've run out of time this year though. And Aunty wants an extra one for her friend (she'll pay for the ingredients for that one).
