hello.december

it's the most wonderful month of the year?  you could hear the song singing already in anticipation of the festive season.  the weather has turned cold certainly.
santa babe came early this year, tonight you received a parcel from australia. it's not entirely a surprise in fact you know a parcel is coming your way as you participated in a festive gift exchange with a few talented bakers around the globe.
feeling excited for the month of december. the last two years, you celebrated chirstmas in your warm homeland.  although you're warm and sweaty in the tropical country, you did miss the cold and the coziness at home.
this year you're staying put, so some baking will start hopefully after your final business trip of the year this week.
