So strange to think you’re having Christmas Eve already! I’ve still got half a day before the last minute panic sets in.
Happy Christmas to you, your family and your feathered friends!
Same to you! Have a wonderful weekend and make lots of happy memories :)
Merry Christmas right back at you! I am so glad I got to know you through your blog this past year, I definitely look forward to the next, and next, and next…
Enjoy the Holidays!
Merry Christmas to you & your family & the chickens too!
Merry Christmas to you all! Have a great time x Joanna
Happy Christmas from Burgundy!!! -2c and wish we had snow instead of very cold rain. Big French seafood feast for the 24th with the 13 Provencal desserts (brought from Nice) and turkey etc on the 25th for lunch.
See you in February!!!
Did I tell you that your girls have 5 French cousins? I can see them from my kitchen window. Anna x
Merry Christmas to you too!
Hugs from the other side of the world,

Merry Christmas Celia – thank you so much for the generosity of your blog – I have very much enjoyed your recipes and tips. Made a quick visit to Harkola yesterday and stocked up on some nuts and figs. On the way out I was thinking I would never have discovered it or Chefs Warehouse without you!!!
I hope you have a beautiful Christmas and can enjoy some delish food with your family and friends.
And many many happy returns Celia and the crew :-)
Merry Christmas Celia! Happy holidays to you and your family.

Merry Christmas to all of you! I hope the chooks get a special treat tomorrow.
All the blessing of the season to your and your family, Celia! And greetings to your chooks from mine. Love the chook Santa! Which one of the girls starred?
I had to consult ‘you’ very early this morning as I tempered chocolate for boozy pudding truffles, it was too hot yesterday to contemplate chocolate.
Merry Christmas, Celia, have a wonderful time together. And Merry Christmas everyone!
Merry Christmas everyone! Thanks for sharing the year with us! :) The photo above is of Rosemary, taken by Mr NQN of Not Quite Nigella. And Deb, I have a few ears of corn which we’ve been saving for the girls – they’ll be harvested tomorrow morning for them! :)
Merry Christmas, my dear friend. I wish every good thing and many, many blessings for you and your lovely family. Your friendship is very special to me, and I hope you have a wonderful day tomorrow. Merry, merry Christmas! (P.S. That photo made my day!)
Merry, merry Christmas, dear Celia! Love that photo!! :)
Merry Christmas to you Celia and your band of merry men.

Happy Christmas to you and the boys Celia! Just making a tonne of shortbread thinking of you – I was planning to give it away but my dinosaur obsessed boy keeps stealing it for his t-rex. Thanks for all the recipes this year.
Thankyou Dear Celia and family. You fill us with light and cheer all year and I wish you all a special time together at Christmas and peace and happiness into 2011.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, Celia! And to everyone else as well!
I think the picture looks cute. Never seen one like that before, usually horses, deer, or elk; a chicken’s a new one!
Finally finished my last gifts, now I just have to make chocolates with the children. It should be fun, I found some chocolate molds, so we’ll try something new. Thanks for the inspiration! I tried several of your recipes, including the Butterscotch Bars. I really liked them. Next year I’ll make more to give as gifts. Thanks for the lovely recipes and other tidbits you share with us all!
Enjoy your holiday,
Manuela
Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas too.
Enjoy the holidays.

Merry Christmas Celia. Now that i have found your blog I hope to be more organised next Christmas and use more of your lovely recipes.
from Queensland’s Sunshine Coast – where it will not stop raining!!!!
Merry Christmas, Celia, Pete and boys. I hope you all have a fantastic day filled with all that you cherish.
Thanks for the treats on Fridays (the jam was awesome Pete), your friendly faces and the wonderful recipes. We are truly blessed to know you.
Have a relaxing break and hopefully see you in the New Year.
Love Roula
I am struggling to find the Christmas spirit at all this year. Long story. many stories. But I do wish you every happiness and thank you for the happiness that you have spread via your blog.
Fantastic photo – glad your chooks are participating in the general cheer. I guess it must already be Christmas Day for you, so do hope you are all having a wonderful time.
Merry Christmas
Happy Christmas lovely Celia. I love your chooks, so sporting wearing a Santa hat too…., in fact I can safely say I’ve never seen a chicken wearing a Santa hat.
Have an awesome day (I went mad last night & tried out your Shortbread…., turned out wonderfully, thanks for such a great little recipe).
Cheers
Anna

Merry Christmas darling! And somehow the Santa hat suits her to a tee! Not quite the schoolmarm in it :P
Hi Celia,
A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to yo and your family, today I am trying the Vanillla Extract and can’t wait until it is ready to use, anyway I was just wondering were you get all your jars and bottles from? I’m on the Central Coast.
Take Care
Tracey
Thank you all! I hope your Christmases were merry and bright! We’re sooo full from all the food! ;-)
