It's Rudolph!

Like last year, the Christmas tree and decorations in The Winnock Hotel are looking very festive, but this year they've managed to get Rudolph himself to oversee proceedings. Apologies for the poor photograph.

After lunch with friend Alison I came home and baked a batch of chocolate brownies and shortbread, both vegan, in anticipation of Lulabel's homecoming. I'm still so full-up from lunch that I haven't been tempted to test the results!
