Re: Show me your Christmas Tree (and other festive tit-bits! 128Dec 27, 2010 7:44 am Just checking out your photos, the girls dresses are gorgeous!!! How was the salmon? I'm definitely going to try that recipe! We ended up with 13 of us for lunch, with another 4 dropping in later in the day. It was a great day. So exhausting! Re: Show me your Christmas Tree (and other festive tit-bits! 129Dec 27, 2010 8:30 am thanks I think they are the cutest dresses ever the salmon was delicious! It was done in a mango glaze sounds a bit like your mango chilli salsa, had coriander in it too, and ginger, white wine vinegar, honey & soy sauce mmm. there is still a bit of it left, wonder if salmon is ok 2 days after, or would that make it salmonella???

Re: Show me your Christmas Tree (and other festive tit-bits! 130Dec 27, 2010 2:45 pm Well done everyone! All your decorations look fabulous! I've finally had a chance to take photos of mine this year (been a crazy last 3 weeks), but I didn't bother with the front door, as it looked better last year! This year, I used the same lengths of ribbon and the same bow, and they have faded somewhat!

Re: Show me your Christmas Tree (and other festive tit-bits! 138Dec 27, 2010 7:37 pm kiwi next year I am coming to your house!!!! it looks so lovely and I bet you have nice christmas music playing too..... LOL! I'm not doing Christmas for the next 2 years, since I did it twice in a row! I'm Christmassed out! Yes, we did have some nice Chrissy music playing! Pebbles WOW Stormy ... beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Did you have a message on your bon bons? The little rolled up piece of paper were actually really bad Christmas jokes we found online and printed off! I didn't want to spend over $50 on Christmas crackers/bon bons with a silly plastic novelty toy and paper hat that all gets chucked in the bin, so I did something different...but still had the silly jokes! It went down well! kek Lovely, Stormy! I love the plain gift wrapping with the fancy ribbons and string. Cheers Kek! The fancy string came from Kiki K (I had to wait several weeks and was beginning to think they weren't going to get it in time for Christmas!). Aaron & Erin You put me to shame Simply stunning Stormy... looks like straight from the pages of a magazine! Cheers Erin! Your table was beautiful, and I loved the lights and the lanterns under the marquee! LeanneR Wow stormy so creative! Looks great! On side note what colour are your walls? Thanks Leanne! My walls are Bristol "Nomadic Ivory" Full strength. If you do a search on the forum, they come up quite a bit, and there is an identical colour by another paint brand (can't remember who it is) that someone was looking at recently! brb_654 Stormy, WOW, Gorgeous Thanks Barb!
