Just as I expected Christmas and Boxing Day were over as quickly as they arrived! It was strange not having the Mini Mes for the celebrations, as they were with their dad, but they still opened their presents here on the 25th before they went. I cooked my first ever Christmas dinner (my mum usually hosts) so it was a little hectic in the kitchen but everything went to plan and tasted pretty good, even if I say so myself...
Luckily I have a year to recover!
From Wednesday I will be watching my weight again and counting down to Kefalonia so my meals will vary slightly from the rest of the family in terms of portion sizes.
I'm doing a Ryvita challenge for January where I intend to try different toppings on a variety of flavoured crispbreads each day and hopefully I'll shred a few pounds in the process!
