I am slowly but surely recovering from Christmas - I ate far too much and suffered for it. I think the amount I must have consumed on Boxing day alone was enough to feed a small army. I have spent the last few days detoxing, sushi, fruit tea and lots of soup. It was really great to finally be home, and back with my family and Miles after being away for the best part of 3 months. I was very lucky with all the lovely presents that I received this year, they were all so pretty - just how I like them!  

My Mum hand knitted me the best scarf ever, I love it. It is over 6 feet and I love that it is one of a kind, she is so clever - I am a terrible knitter! I got so many great things I have so many things to do and make. Miles got the prize for the most innovative present when he found me this unique paint tube door stop from the London Graphic Centre. He also managed to hunt out Rice products in London and got me a fabulous floral oven Mitt and cometic case - too cute for words. I hope everyone else had a great Christmas, also ate too much and was very merry.  Almost the new year, exciting stuff!
