Christmas Cake Bake

After pondering staying with the loaf-style Christmas cake model of the last couple of years, eventually decided to go for one big cake again.

Haven't quite decided on how to decorate it - might forego the icing, and stick with the fruit, nut and marzipan option - in the meantime it will be well fed with brandy :)

Ouch!

Someone caught their little toe on a door frame recently.

It's turned a lovely purple colour - and won't bend properly so we think it's probably broken.

Not much to be done about it mind you - strapped it to the next toe, and he'll just have to take it easy for a few days!
