Christmas cooking win!

This Christmas we decided to make some gingerbread cookies for our friends and neighbours. A nice, cheap present. (I was about to type 'easy' just then, but it definitely wasn't easy!) The Prince had to help me roll out the gingerbread because it was hard from being in the fridge, but here's the finished product!

And yes, that is a mince pie dipped in icing at the back of the photo! I blame the Prince!


All wrapped up:

See, I can cook, sometimes! Now if only I could think of something for dinner...

Chrismas rose

Rose: A Christmas that wasn't too expensive! We put spending limits on our presents, and came out very well in the end I think.

Christmas wish list

Forgive this rather self-indulgent post! But as the Stretchy Princess blog is partially just my personal spot on the web I thought I'd post my Christmas Wishlist here for easy access to the Prince!






So here we have, in no particular order, things this Princess might like for Christmas:

• CDs: classic jazz, Oud music or cello music ($5 bargain bin would be great here!)
• Big Bang Theory DVDs
• organic rosehip oil (this is a beauty product - available at Chemists & beauty places - $30 and up)
• recipe box from safeway -light blue. Kath has one
• cute hairclips. Bobbypins with bilas! ;)
• red sparkly nail polish
• Plants: kaffir lime tree. Avocado tree. 
• herbs: chives & basil

Fav TV show atm.

What's on your wishlist?

(and don't say things like peace and love etc - we all want those! This is a *practical* list! ;)
