When the Christmas Shopping is over…

…it’s time to settle down with a hot drink, a tin of delicious biscuits and a good book.
 Christmas shopping can be stressful. Hoards of people, heavy bags, the panic and bickering over what to buy who. To warm up and wind down I cosied up with some hot chocolate (I’m not a tea or coffee drinker!) white chocolate and lemon biscuits from Crabtree & Evelyn (isn’t the tin lovely?) and had a read of Love Letters of Great Men.

And relax!

    this is how I prepare for Christmas shopping, a book, a mug of tea… relax before facing the crowds at the mall 🙂

    This is the perfect antidote to the christmas crowds! I do love shopping for pressies, but at Christmas a re-fuel/recovery programme is definitely needed 😛 x

    This is a great article. I love Christmas shopping but I defiantly enjoy it when its all over. It can be hard trying to find every gift and making all your family happy. Also, you mostly likely spend a lot of money. I know the holiday season can be rough for some families with financial issues. However, there are always ways to receive a lump sum cash that people can look into to help them through the holiday months.
