I actually quite like home made shortbread but I once spent months at a job in Edinburgh where we had nothing to do except eat the Walkers shortbread in the kitchen and it spoiled it for me (well I did do some work but there was a lot of boredom)Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-20221687123296985602014-01-16T00:02:50.545+11:002014-01-16T00:02:50.545+11:00Thanks Celia - I have seen those sort of bread sta...Thanks Celia - I have seen those sort of bread stamps and consider buying them every now and again - I think Sylvia would love them.

We are way behind the UK but they show it every week so will catch up soon enough. I can't stand those candy canes either - what a waste of perfectly good sugar. You don't like shortbread? What is wrong with you GGG? Still, I will overlook this foible and continue to read throughout 2014.

They kids loved it, and I reckon your Sylvia would too if you ever saw anything like it again. Your vegetable scrubber is very, very cute, as are the pink straws. I agree with S, I think most drinks taste better through a straw! How nice that you had your family over for Christmas!

I’ve heard about The Great British Bake-Off, but I haven’t watched it yet, but I’m watching the Taste at the moment now! The vegetable scrubber is adorable…I need one like this! I agree with the lovely packaging on these straws, so floral and elegant!
