DAY 24 and 25: These two things go together, rightβ¦?! π Gorgeous little mug and a tipple Iβm saving for New Yearβs Eve!
Thanks so much, @melindahaunton.bsky.social!
Thatβs #YayAdvent over for another year - thanks @gazpachodragon.bsky.social for organising and Merry Christmas, all! π
Lost the #YayAdvent box again in the massive unpacking before Christmas so had a big catch up after tea. We enjoyed a close game of the trivia (12, 12 and 16 points) , heart bauble joins the sproat on the tree and i'm old enough to remember the library reader cards...
Printed label saying βitβs Christmas!β
Stress ball shaped like a plump gingerbread man
Happy Christmas! Final #YayAdvent is a gingerbread man stress ball - so far not necessary but time will tellβ¦
Huge thanks to @gazpachodragon.bsky.social for organising and @superteadrinker.bsky.social for the gifts, hope everyone has had a great day β€οΈβ€οΈ
Ah I shall not spoil my final #YayAdvent as I think @bethanywindsor.bsky.social is right and it should be passed along for next year's delectation. So I'll simply thank Bethany and @gazpachodragon.bsky.social for making this December such a joyful one. Merry Christmas, both!

Didnβt take #YayAdvent to Inverness at the weekend so catching up again! Day 19 is seasonal Haribo, day 20 is festive paper cups (should I use instead of my fancy glassware y/n?). Day 21 is an ice cube tray to dream of warmer weather with and today is little festive pegs.
Lots of #YayAdvent goodies. Pencils, a Christmas making fortune fish, beautiful flower brooch and today's cute mug hug!

Apologies for the #YayAdvent silence. I took some on holiday and then failed to photo them. Anyway, here are 18-20, 2 of which will work together most enjoyably.
Three presents: a Molton Brown body lotion, a grey felt zipped purse in the shape of a flatfish (I wonder if I can get my cards in it in fact. I need a card purse). And a wooden badge (magnet back not visible) showing an entirely empty jar, labelled "Ye olde Jar of Fucks". Glorious work.
#YayAdvent though is unqualified joy. Body lotion so nice I put it straight on my dry hands and forgot to take a photo. Then a funky fish purse for yesterday and today? A magnificent fridge magnet. Fresh out, I am.
Days 18-20 of #YayAdvent. Butterfly friendly wildflower seeds for the garden, fudge (which I shall be hiding from small people and elves), and a really lovely soap.
