Christmas ain't Christmas without...

 ..traditional trifle. 

Note: this is my last post on Christmas!

Two weeks ago I attended the service at my church, St Mary's Anglican Church in Winterton. Because I often clean The Bunker on a Sunday, I don't regularly get to church in town. On occasion,  I have managed to attend the Turning Point, charismatic church service, pastored by my friends, Ray and Rene Mattig, as it's held  in the Champagne Valley, just 1km from the Bunker. 

This particular Sunday after church, my friend, Jenny Hall was the hostess serving tea. Along with banana bread, sandwiches and Romany Creams, she had a plate of boudoir  biscuits. Seeing these, reminded me of how we mothers in the mid-70's gave these to our babies when they were teething.

It also reminded me of the traditional Christmas trifle which Grant and I made every year . I decided there and then to buy the necessary ingredients and make trifle. 

Which I did on Christmas morning after returning from opening gifts at the neighbor's house. 

It was a LARGE trifle and perfect for me to enjoy over the Christmas weekend.

Which is what I did...

Christmas Trifle - it was delicious

  3. It looks delish. You deserved it after your busy holiday festivities. I'm truly way behind reading blogs.
