Because Everything’s Political

Bliss

Ahh, Saturday. Bliss. And it is a beautiful day, going against the forecast, here in Barnstaple. We have a mission for today, only one, but it is a big call. Baking the family Christmas cake! Last night we mixed up all the dried fruits, ginger and citrus peel and juice and it has been soaking over night. We have chosen undyed glacier cherries and they actually taste nice! Hopefully we will not mess up with the cooking!!!

Chicken also has a free range locally reared chicken to cook, brought from the local produce market at the Pannier market yesterday.

We also got our Christmas booze yesterday, the sort of stuff you don’t drink the rest of the year (i.e. Baileys) and the staples (cider for me and Carlsberg Export for Mr C!). This was after a quick trip to Swimbridge to see our wedding venue, which looks excellent.

After our busy weekend last week we intend on doing very little else this weekend! It is time to chill… Bliss.
