During the festive season, I have been up to lots of Christmas baking and crafting. In the last week of school, I made a cool wreath out of fabric strips and a wire coat hanger.
As a gift, I have made up a batch of chocolate fudge and have presented them in origami boxes made out of 5 inch pieces of origami paper. The recipe is here.

Yesterday we decorated some Royale Biscuits to look like mini plum puddings – we got the inspiration from It’s All About Us.
Tonight as a yummy treat I made some Candy Cane Frappes for the family, out of candy canes, ice cream, milk and ice. I presented them with a candy cane and a festive coloured straw.
We have been given loads of awards over the past week or so. Thanks so much to
