It's starting to look and feel a little like Christmas more and more each day. For those of you participating in the advent swap you only have a few days before you are able to open your first gift numbered "25".Hopefully we are all busy planning gifts and writing up "To Do" Lists. I always do quite a lot of festive baking and have been looking around for new recipes. If I find any nice ones I will be sure to share them with you. Like this one for Chocolate Nut Truffles.
