In reply to Linda Martin. Hi Linda So glad you enjoy my blogs & apologies for the delay in replying - our reverse advent calendars are all finished now and hopefully raising smiles on people’s faces. I have Snow in Love in my lounge, on the dining table and at my bedside at the moment! I’ve just got some new Skechers trainers with arch supports which are really comfortable and are supporting my ankle. I’m getting there...but slower than I’d hoped On a happier note we’re all well thanks Love Julia x

Hi Moira
I’m so pleased you decided to do a reverse advent calendar – like you, I did a mix of staples and Christmassy treats and hopefully our boxes will bring smiles to people’s faces
Love

Hello Tina
I’m so sorry it has taken me a while to get back to you and really saddened to hear your awful news. It’s going to be a tough Christmas for you, but hopefully your friends will rally round.
Did you get yourself a little rescue dog? Having a cat certainly helped my mum after my dad died.
Much love

Hi Joyce
Apologies for the late reply. My reverse advent calendar has gone off to the food bank. Thanks for the suggestion for a few Christmassy things along with the basics – good idea.
I’m glad you like my recipes
Love

Hi Julia I do enjoy reading your blogs and I love the idea of the reverse advent calendar and will start one myself. Like you Snow in Love is my absolute favourite from Yankee Candles but must say I was tempted to get the Christmas Magic which comes a very close second but my favourite won out can’t wait for it to arrive. I also bought the Skechers Chugga boots I adore Skechers and have quite a few pairs of their boots but needed a new pair of ankle boots and these were just the ticket. I hope your foot is now well on the mend and you and yours are keeping safe and well.

Hi
I always read your stories on QVC. I think the Reverse Advent Calendar is an excellent idea. I have started ours today
with 6 items, I am going to do a mix of staple foods and some Christmas goodies.

Kind regards
Moira

Hi Julia, Its been quite a while since I have been on line. The past few months have been horrendous. My husband passed away in September after a very short illness. I am still reeling by it all. I nursed him at home. I don’t know how I would have coped the past few weeks without some very good friends. One of them I have known since senior school. So we’ve known each other for over 50 years. She has been truly wonderful. I have been meeting her nearly every day for a walk with her little Yorkie called Poppy. I know its still early days and this time of year is making it even harder. I am on the look out for a little rescue dog myself. Hope you are keeping well.
Best wishes Tina S.

Hi Julia You always have really interesting blogs, the reverse advent calender idea is brilliant!! Can I just say, in case anyone else is thinking of copying your kindness, most food banks have lots and lots of beans, tomatoes, pasta and rice. It may be worth ringing your local centre and asking what they are short of. I did a similar box last year and tried to include “Christmassy” things to help, especially for children. Keep up the good work and more recipes please–I’m not vegetarian but I’m always ready to give a try to a tasty dish!!
