Christmas Eve

rimturseParents fed and given left-overs to take home, presents exchanged, Lia being an attention-seeking pain in the butt, Murphy and Orlando being lovely, playful and cuddly and now we're alone again.
Evening went well, food was good, company was good with no mother incidents at all.
The only mishap was that I burned myself AGAIN on those *รง%&****!!!! caramelized potatoes (on the pan this time, not on the sugar) and spent the first 3 hours of the evening in pain with an ice cube wrapped around my little finger. It's finally stopped hurting, but with all the burn-marks my right hand looks as if I've given it a triple small pox vaccination.
EDIT: C did give me the item on my wishlist! A LaCafetiere stovetop kettle, so that I no longer have to use a small pot to boil water for tea. :)
He also gave me something I had almost given up on owning, because as he says "We have enough kitchen machines as it is" (and he's right), buuuut now we have one more: a pasta machine!
Our presents to each other (I gave him a book about whiskeys and a brunch/sandwich cookbook) really reveals what little food and drink piggies we are. *grin*
