Start of Christmas

Actually it is not the start of Christmas, but only the start of preparations for it.  Our tree is ordered from Caulders and is arriving week of 10th December, at which point the decorations go up.  No Christmas food and drink will be consumed in the house before 18th December which is the first day of Mousemas.  This is by order of the cats who also take charge of the blog for that period.

Here is the first batch of goodies.  The Celebrations and Prosecco are going into hiding.
