Merry Christmas Eve!
I am so excited I can barely contain it...and even more excited about the fact that I still love Christmas as much as I did when I was a kid!
I was feeling a little funny about Christmas up until a few days ago. I feel like I'm in that weird transitional period where I'm not a kid anymore and neither is anyone in mine or Josh's immediate family, but we don't have kids of our own yet. Enter, the weird "grown-up Christmas".
And then I realised that I should be excited. This is the time that Josh and I get to start making our own traditions, things that we will do with our kids and families for the next LOTS of years! Cue excitement. And Christmas cookies!
These came from Annabel Langbein who is somewhat of a domestic goddess in NZ. And they are DELICIOUS! And make the house smell oh-so-Christmassy! (Recipe below)
I can guarantee I will be making these next year. And having them with a big glass of eggnog, sitting in front of the tree that Josh cut down while I paint my nails with Christmassy colours.
...Ok, it turns out we have a few traditions already!
Merry Christmas everyone =)
