In Today !

Well we weren't going anywhere today so we stopped in. Makes a real change from last year which was appointments all over the place. They have gone right down, and just have the odd one now, at least any that I can't avoid.
Did some ironing this morning to begin with, the Christmas linen, tablecloth, napkins and mats etc., so they are done and all put away for next year. That's it really. Vin was doing the lights in the garden this morning because the weather isn't too bad today, not raining anyway. He is a bit annoyed because the solar lights aren't working, and they are ess than a year old. he says he will take them back..he keeps the receipt for everything! good for him..I just lose them.
Biggest decision today was which coffee to have from our tassimo machine. I do have to say that was the best deal of last year by a mile. The discs/pods are gorgeous and the coffee is really good. i ended up with a Cafe crema today, and Vin had a Capuccino, which he did with a dinky little star in chocolate on the top.  Considering the machine was only £30 from a costa Coffee website it has been worth its weight in gold.

The Christmas table..all but a distant memory now.  It was a lovely Christmas this year though, and we really enjoyed having Jane home too. Got our last christmas card this morning from America, must have been delayed. from our Professor friend in Texas.

Tonight we are having:
Pasta bake with mushrooms
butternut squash to go with,
A bit of garlic bread for Vin.
