On a recent market visit we found great bunches of shallots and garlic - now on the wall in our....living room?!? Strung up some chillies and Amber added the finishing touch! Ian has a cunning plan for the kitchen so they will be moving at some point!
'How the other half live' - I went along to the Pattaya International Ladies Club Christmas Luncheon at a wonderful hotel (Amber was told it was the poshest in Pattaya - but that could have been to ensure the kids were on their best behaviour) - it was amazing! Whilst I was lunching darling... The Regents School performed - how funny! Amber was among them - it was lovely and bought a tear to my eye! Lu (in front) did a wonderful job with them!!
Out on the balcony of the hotel - not bad eh?!
This is our tree (slipped in out of order!)
Back to the hotel - an ice sculpture of Father Christmas - yes I was that sad that I had to take pictures at the venue - I was in awe!!!
What a gingerbread house!
The food was amazing!
OK - back down to earth now - this is Chez Lazenbury (Ian got artistic with the trees and tinsel!)
Even with the most cantankerous oven known to man we somehow managed to create our own gingerbread house - if a little burnt on the inside! Yesterday made gingerbread cookies for the tree, I made a wreath a couple of nights ago - got inspired with threading chillies, dried oranges and orange paper?! Oh yes Blue Peter has arrived in Pattaya!!!
Kids had great fun decorating - as you can see - yes - I do believe Christmas is on its way - even in the heat! Happy Festivities everyone!
