I have no enthusiasm...

...for Christmas, however after stopping for a chat with friends in the supermarket where one thing led to another and before I knew it I'd bought the ingredient for a Christmas cake...with a heavy heart I soaked the fruit...My reward was the family jumping around the kitchen rubbing their bellies with eyes sparkly and slobby chops - they didn't think they'd get one this year and its made them feel all Christmassy and excited!!! My lot are so easily pleased.... warmed my heart too...might have to make a start on some shopping now...
