Christmas Spice and all things nice.

I am spicing things up this Christmas...I made some Chilli Jam yesterday.


It's really easy to make and tastes delicious with cold meats, cheese or just about anything. I love the combination of sweetness with the fiery chilli.
I used Nigella's recipe. All you need are fresh chilli peppers, red peppers, jam sugar and cider vinegar. I like mine extra spicy so I didn't deseed all the chilli peppers.
These are the jars of gorgeousness, looking all glowing and festive! They make great gifts too.




I finally got round to making some Christmas cards. I used scraps of fabric sewed together on my sewing machine and then made into Christmas(ish) trees, using wadding and backed with calico. (I don't think I'm explaining this very well, but hopefully you'll get the idea from the photos some of which are a bit blurry because it was very late and very dark when I took them with my iphone.)







Wishing you a very Happy Christmas, filled with joy, laughter, spice and all things wonderful, glorious and nice.
With very much love,
