Celebrating the Festive Season



December 2, 2014

Celebrating Christmas seems like a lot bigger affair in England than it ever really did in America to me. Sure Christmas is a big deal, but the lead up wasn’t as exciting in America.

I will dream of the garlic mashed potatoes and truffle mac and cheese until I have them again. Everything was delicious except the sticky toffee pudding wasn’t anything to write home about, so grab the creme brûlée instead. Go with a friend who will share so you can try more dishes!

So this Christmas season was a pretty special one but also draining as there’s so many emotions swirling round this time of year that no one talks about. 

Here’s to more adventures in 2023 and hopefully some more calm moments!
