Goldfish they are great for tea drinkers. I have a boiling thingy under the sink so I let the water sit a minute or two before I pour it over the infuser.  I use a big glass mug with an infuser insert when I don't use my tea pots and I never leave the tea to stew. That makes it nasty for me.

If my thingy dies I would buy that jug.

Hope it is a proper turkey. The ones we have here are just big tastes chickens and nothing like a real grown up turkey and they are outrageously expensive .

Can't believe my oldest child has turned 18 today. Makes me feel old :) actually I don't feel that old because my youngest son is only 7, he helps me feel younger still.
Didn't seem that long ago though that I was on my second last night shift before I went on maternity leave when I went into labour.
Then my 6lb 7oz perfect baby boy was born. :)

I have just finished wrapping all the Christmas presents. :)  Still don't have a tree yet, maybe at the weekend.

Happy birthday to your DS dede.

I hate wrapping gifts so I guess I had better start soon. I usually leave it to the last minute!  I love buying though.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Cleaning and more cleaning. Using old vacuum then new vacuum so don't kill new one straight away.
Changing sheets etc.
 Getting DS's room ready for him. Not finished room though Dh now decided to re plaster..... In the NY! poor lad told him it'd be done... Now only part done.
Last dog walks today, dog goes away to sheepdog school tomorrow for a few weeks.
Right off now round sheep and last walk before dark  >:(
Than must make shepherds pie with leftover lamb from Sunday.
