NCT Christmas Party

Today we've all met for our NCT Christmas party! As we are such an international group, we all brought a festive dish from our own countries. Mark and I had made a HUGE Jansons Temptation and meat balls.

It was really lovely and yummie food. We had Brazilian cheese bread to start with, followed by a Polish cheese quiche and sushi. For mains our Swedish food, plus gammon, cabbage and Chinese pork. For dessert Scottish Cranachan and Brazilian chocolate sweets. I had also brought some gingerbread men, but we never got round to those!

We also had a secret Santa where we each had bought a present for one of the babies. This was Vera's first Christmas present that she got to open and she received a book with nursery rhymes, it's plastic and actually sings the rhymes and there's music etc. Cute, but I'm sure we'll get used to hearing it!

Now we're home and very full, so just chilling out for the rest of the night.
