Midnight!

This bead was a creation of miss fortune! I had picked up black instead of phyce!!! I decided to carry on anyway and I actually think it turned out well, today I want to make another one with phyce and see how It should have turned out!

We don't have snow, but we have had a good thunderstorm this afternoon !
I am really looking forward to going to the South coast, we will be away for 2 weeks starting on the 26th:)
I think before I am in the Christmas mood it wil be all over!

You know it is quite difficult to create a Christmas atmospehre when you are swimming in the pool, I have't put up our Christmas tree yet, I really must, perhaps I'll get in the mood then. I just took out my recipe books today and put some things together which I know are good! I have a bad habbit of wanting to try new things and sometimes they backfire on me;) 
Let me know what you guys are making.... perhaps we can share some ideas!
One of the desserts I want to make is Orange flavoured Chocolate mousse cake, it is devine!

The Sun is back in all its glory, the rain and the clouds are all gone, the sky is blue without a hint of what we saw for the last 5 days as if it never happened!
If you listen carefully you van hear the lawn growing........;)
