tis' the night before Christmas.....

Don't eat all the ingredients just yet.......mini marshmellows, gummie bears and peanut M&M's - yummo!

Don't get sidetracked either, melted chocolate does set at some stage, so move quickly!


Pheew, all done. Breakfast maybe?

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse!
Well actually, I am the one that is stirring. I am trying to whip cream with a potato masher for my trifle tomorrow.
This year we are spending Christmas with my husband's family, and this year we decided to make a holiday of it. So here we are, in self contained apartments on the NSW coast, for 2 weeks of fun and festivities!
The first activity has been to try and put together a meal for 19 people on Christmas day without an oven. My contribution for the meal is to make rocky road and a trifle for desert -hence the need to whip the cream for the trifle! Of course we only have the basic of utensils in our little kitchenette, so it's turning it into a bit of a challenge to get things made. It's amazing what you make do with, who needs an electric beater! 
Ho, ho, ho
