Christmas capers...

Hello folks!

Whether you're spending the festive season in the UK, Italy or somewhere else in the world, I trust you're enjoying yourself, and most importantly, eating LOTS. I certainly am, here at my parents' home in the Midlands.

I spent Christmas day and Boxing day eating, drinking, eating, playing silly board games and eating a bit more. Part of me was eager to see what an actual Italian Christmas day was like, but I've got to be honest... I don't think I would have been happy without the traditional roast dinner and Christmas pudding :D 

Here are a few Christmas snaps for you, taken both in the run up to Christmas (in Italy) and Christmas day here in England.Enjoy!

Is this an Italian or English tree? Clue: look out for the panettone at  the bottom... ;D

  1. Love the pictures. The nativity scene is definitely an Italian tradition during the holiday season. The meal in your pic, although not Italian, looks delicious!

    Happy Holidays from the US
