Christmas is coming to Lymehurst

Christmasy feel in the entrance hall in Lymehurst B&B

   Well the weather isn't exactly Christmasy. The Great Orme that we see from the front of Lymehurst was shrouded in mist this morning. That cleared but it's still rather dull but the two guests that have arrived from Leicester have said that it's much better weather here than at home.Apparently they had a really good trip here so is everybody else keeping off the roads?
  Getting more Christmasy here. Have just baked my first batch of 36 mince pies so the guests had some straight from the oven. Now it's on to marzipaning and icing of the Christmas cakes followed by present wrapping. Need to dig out my favourite Christmas CD ( the best Christmas ....ever!) it is unfortunately suffering from being played so much!! It has to be well over 10 years old so might have to be replaced.

   

  So now another job off the list. Christmas cake iced........very simply. I have used roll on icing which  makes it a lot easier .Now for the present wrapping
