CHRISTMAS
The weekend before Christmas I finished up wrapping all my presents!
I turned up my Christmas music, sat at my desk, and laid out all my decorations, presents and wrapping paper and put on some candles.
I pretty much built up a Christmas workshop.
I bought some candy canes to put them under the bows and shopped of some fir branches from my garden. This year I chose pretty plain wrapping paper because I wanted to go all out on the decorations.
At NANU NANA I picked up different sizes and variations of bows and ribbons, which makes all the difference and is probably the easiest way to decorate.
I also bought some chalk board stickers, which are amazing. They came with some chalk and you can reuse them or you can erase and write again and don't ruin the wrapping paper.
I figured that a hot glue gun comes very very handy when decoration, cause then you can literally stick everything that comes to your mind on there!
xx Merry Christmas
See ya'll next year <3

EASY COOKIES
So I already have all my blog posts done for blogmas and it's Tuesday evening at the moment. But I made some amazing cookies this afternoon and wanted to share the recipe with you, and it also matches the other Day 11 post so here you go!!
What you need:
200g butter (at room temperature)
300g caster sugar
1 large egg
325g self raising flour
a dash of milk
200g of any chocolate you like (you can choose however much and what you like)
Let's go:
-Preheat you oven to 200C (390F)
-whisk butter and sugar together until it's creamy
-crack in the egg and mix it through
-add the flour a bit at a time
-break up the chocolate (I chose Milka luflee) and add it to the mixture
-grab the dough from underneath and spread the chunks
-shape the mixture into 10 balls (amount depends on how big you want your cookies)
-put on baking tray covered in baking paper
-bake for 10-12 minutes (mine took about 9!)
-let them cool
(I took half the ingredients and made 4!)
