Tis the Season to Be Merry

 

Out of all the magic that comes along with the festive season, the one aspect that holds the most charm is finding yourself sitting at a table surrounded by other beings that make you smile. 

Last night I hosted a small but intimate dinner party in our home sweet home. I woke up early and visited the Sydney Flower Markets to stock up on some greenery for the table, I polished some brass cutlery that my Mother-in-law had leant us, and I made some flower petal ice-cubes. The night ended with a roast dinner, a delicious dessert and empty wine bottles aplenty — what a merry little Christmas indeed!
