It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

I wish I could attach a link to the smell of fruit and brandy! So tonight I put a bit of Christmas Michael Buble on, gathered my ingredients and after a little dance around the kitchen, I got started on my Christmas cake. I sound like a pro, but I am not. Last year I went to Christmas cake school...and this year my Mum is overseeing my efforts!

First phase tonight, soaking the fruit in brandy. Smells amazing....
