Day 20 -Christmas Crackers
It dawned on me yesterday, while competing for the christmas goodies in Marks & Spencers and remembering I already had some crackers, that I have not seen ANY crackers mentioned on blogs, in digi-kits, or even in digital Lay-outs. I assumed therefore that these are a purely British tradition, but a Wikipedia Search revealed that…

Easter Eggs in Tescos in January – it’s just wrong!

Looking forward to your next photo and post!
