The Forest has come to the Narnia!!

OK, we now have a forest of 16 trees in front of the house, Santa's Sleigh and Reindeer. Won't be lit up for a while, Thomas is working on stringing the lights now; we shall need more rocks to weigh down the stands as well as more lights, preferably on sale and white ;-)it is a nice day outside, warm for this time of year, the sun is warming up the air and the ground;
not much has been done inside, except the Christmas clock, without the carol chimes on; a wreath on the door and the Christmas mugs and cups out (the Halloween mugs and cups put away for another year); I have put a string of Christmas lights at the entrance to my bed-sitter, and have the decorations out for sorting; but mostly I have been preparing by re-arranging the freezers, getting at the left over cooking supplies from last year, and organizing the recipes; one new recipe will be a banana, apple, carrot nut cake, with some having Christmas peel; will be based around a banana bread, so perhaps it should rightfully be called a Banana, apple, carrot, nut bread ;-)
