When the Cheshire emerges...

Day 23: more work, more tiredness. We survived this Christmas on Tracy and her mum's biscuits mostly, but Viki's contribution is noteworthy. The shortbreads below may look innocent but they were laced with at least double the necessary amount of brandy essence. Her mum read the recipe wrong - or did she? Think we all know what Viki was trying to do here... getting us drunk at work, tsk tsk...

Day 24: Christmas Eve. Presents were starting to pile up under the tree after I got the ball rolling...

Day 25: the big day. Spent with family, and then with friends at night, but the best present of all was Mum unveiling the Christmas ice cream cake. Still have some in the freezer, soooooo good.


Day 26: Boxing Day. Avatar 3D. The film was awesome. Just found out it's the fastest ever to reach US$1bn (guess out of three films it's not that hard but still). But what caught my eye was the new confectionery selection outside the cinema. Yum.

Day 27: The sales. Had about 90 mins with the intention of buying some black flat sandals. End up with all of this... but for under $100 I did well.

Day 28: Holiday for SA, chilled day. This is Anthony, and for some reason my camera didn't like him here.

Day 29: Sitting right here typing an email and the doorbell rings. My passport arrived. Fair quick too considering so I was all the more excited. It's new and pretty and I love it. I can travel!

Day 30: So I tried putting the abovementioned shoes away. Didn't go down so well. Shoe cupboard now full.

Day 31/32: New Year's. Really quiet this year which was good. Found it interesting that at 12:03am everyone's heads were down - not in thought, but checking their phones. And so began 2010.

Can now say I have page 62 completed after having taken a photo for every day of December. Woo!
