Don't panic but it's only........
I've spent the weekend at home so I made the most of it by starting the christmas clean, you know, the one before trimming up. I can remember helping my mum do it all those years ago!
Another thing my mum did at Christmas was make a trifle and seeing as today I was in the mood for trifle, I decided to make one (just like Mother used to make - lol)
I sliced up a strawberry swiss roll and placed it in the trifle dish with some tinned strawberries. Then I drizzled some brandy over the swiss roll (ok - maybe my mother didn't do that but OMG it is so good with brandy!) I then poured a strawberry jelly over it. When it was set I topped it with custard and lightly whipped double cream. To decorate I sprinkled over some crunchy chocolate bits (Asda).
So easy. So good. So 70's!
31 days? :-O Oh. My. God. AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH.

Trifle's an essential part of Christmas here - I have it on the plan for Boxing Day :-)

Yummy trifle Angie, you've put me in the mood to make one, my Husband was only saying at the weekend that it had been ages since he'd eaten a trifle so maybe it's time I treated him to one! I'm putting my decorations up next weekend so I'll do that big clean then, we usually wait until mid-December but fancy putting them up earlier this year. We need cheering up what with all this credit crunch malarkey. Have a good week.
