Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas my lovely readers!! I hope you've had a wonderful Christmas surrounded by loved ones and filled with great food and lots of pressies.

I had a quiet Christmas lunch and gift opening session at home with my family before going to D's. We had a cold lunch of ham, prawns etc with pavlova of course to finish! Then I headed off to D's for dinner with his family. D made Singapore chilli crab for everyone and some roti to go with it but as I can't eat crab I had oysters mornay mmmmm.


D's sisters friend made some yummy creme brulee for dessert too!


Some pressies from my family and a friend. My sis had ordered the Deborah Lippmann Get This Party Started set for me but unfortunately it didn't arrive in time. But I have something to look forward to after Christmas at least!!!


Pressie from D =) I have Benefit Watts Up YAY!!!!!!!!!!


I'll leave you with some pics of our gingerbread house. The sis and I decorated it (next year we're going to bake our own!) very late one night last week and we reckon we did a pretty damn good job if I do say so myself! We're super proud of it lol. We look forward to doing it every year and it's an awesome sisterly bonding session for us too xp

    @maquillager: Thank you! We actually picked it up from Kmart in a kit! The kit included the gingerbread base, icing and some lollies. We made our own royal icing though and added other lollies and decorations. Ikea also sell a gingerbread base too.

    You should DEFINITELY try one! I hope you had a lovely Christmas =D
