This week’s picture is from Yarnspinnerr: Merry Christmas Yarnspinnerr!
Times were hard in the village, so it was decided to celebrate Christmas Day at the community hall and each household to bring something for the table.
Geoff at number 4 had the build to play Santa with no padding, and his neighbours dressed as elves to keep the kids entertained. Old Mrs Cross played the piano for musical chairs and other party games and everyone was in good spirits.
Gaily wrapped gifts valued at no more than five pounds were deposited into Santa’s sack on arrival and the ladies from the local WI took charge of laying out paper plates, napkins and disposable cutlery for their feast.
Eileen’s contribution was homemade rather than shop bought and she thought everyone would make fun of her. Simply a dish of puff pastry cut into triangles dipped in honey and dusted with icing sugar, by the end of the afternoon, she had fourteen requests for the recipe.
The kids were content and sleepy, and everyone said it had been one of the best Christmases ever.

Merry Christmas everyone.
A lovely idea.
Christmas as it should be Di, good one.
A Happy Time for all Michael.
Tasty.
I love sweet pastries. Merry Christmas!
Me too. Merry Christmas!

Santa listened to Eileen. No one laughed at her. She was admired and her recipe well sought after. That is called wish coming true.
Those sound really delicious! I hope you had a great Christmas! Great story!
You too. All the best for the New Year.
You also have a healthy, happy, and prosperous New Year!
Thank you. 🙂
You have recalled times past for me, lovely. Merry christmas
I’m glad Michael. I hope you had a lovely Christmas.
I couldn’t identify what kind of puff pastry it was, but yours sounds delicious!
I have no idea if it would work, but I can’t see why not!
What a delightful story, Di. And the idea of celebrating Christmas Day at the local community hall was a really good one. Hope you had a good Christmas yourself 🙂
It was lovely, thank you. We had no running around to do for anyone or planning visits, so could just relax and enjoy the day. Saw the sunrise on Christmas Day which was awesome.
Nice one, Di 🙂 Sounds like you had a wonderful Christmas.
It was lovely, thank you. All the best for the coming year.
