We had a lovely Christmas, with a Friends & Family BBQ at our home on Christmas eve, followed by a lovely buffet lunch at Villa Italiana at the Casino for Lunch, and a Family BBQ at my Nan's for Dinner!

Boxing Day was just as lovely, with a lovely cold 'Leftover' spread for Lunch with our friends the Wades, and another BBQ Dinner at Broc's Mum's!

A few snaps from the last few days, more to follow later...

I have been a busy little elf, baking and icing away the last couple of days to create yummy treats for our friends and family.  I will be posting recipes and photos of my creations after Christmas, as I want them to be a surprise for the recipients!

One that I will share with you is Peanut Brittle.  It's really quite easy to make, but does take some forethought and patience.  I first found this particular recipe about five years ago, and kept it as it worked perfectly first go!

All of the things I've created are definitely keepers, and I will make them again next year - starting our own Christmas Traditions!!

Creating amazing and special foods for the people I love gives me a real warm, fuzzy feeling.

What food-related Christmas traditions are there in your household?
Do you make treats and cakes as a family?
Is there a special dish you always serve on Christmas Day?

Happy Baking!
