Martha would be so proud, we were at the market bright and early.

Here’s apples and oranges (just to show Jiff that we started with raw ingredients again, not cans!) for the pie and stuffing and kumara.

Washed and labelled all the dishes so as to be ready and organised for later.

Did all the morning jobs on schedule so we were allowed out for a lunch break to Nikau.

And we’re off – made the list of jobs and timetable over breakfast (free this morning because Gotham said we’re such great customers! YAY!) and the poppin’ cranberries are on the stove for the cranberry sauce. And what a dreadful wet, windy, wintry day – good to be inside cooking.
