• Christmas Eve... (Picton style)

  ...it's Christmas Eve!

  
  

  I've just got done making 'chocolate salami' for the kids as there Christmas day treat.

  
  

  WFT is chocolate salami I hear you ask.

  
  

  (Well, at least that's what I said when I was asked to create it.)

  
  

  It's basically, plain vanilla biscuits crushed up, mixed with butter, orange juice, cocoa powder and Nutella, before being rolled into a salami-sized-log, and put into the fridge to set. Once it's firm, it'll be coated in toasted almond slivers and viola! Chocolate Salami.

  
  

  Yum.

  
  

  After lunch, my brother and my nephew are going through to Blenheim (the next big town - approx. 20mins drive) to take the nephew to have his new glasses fitted and to pick a Christmas present for his Mum (my Sister-in-Law).

  
  

  After that, we will be picking Ross up from Koromiko airport!

  
  

  Hurrah!

  
  

  He's currently on the 4hr flight from Melbourne to Wellington.

  
  

  I just hope he still loves me when he finds out the plane he's booked to fly from Wellington (in the North Island) to Picton (in the South Island) is only a 12 seater.
