~Liebster Award - a hug from other Bloggers!~
I feel so lucky to be given the Liebster Award from 2 lovely bloggers!
I only discovered what this was yesterday. I thinks it's like giving a *hug* and encouragement to fellow bloggers, spreading the word about us newbies with less than 200 followers who may be writing about stuff of interest to other lovely folk...It means dearest or beloved. And so the love goes on....I shall display it proudly thanks to lovely, lovely Anne at Marmalade and Catmint (who will get an extra slice of cake when she visits my tea event in February) and also Emma at The Log Cabin . Thankyou ladies x
Poppycock & Other Creative Nonesense Sally is an East Yorkshire artist, very clever lady. Makes beautiful art and sends me encouragement and support.
Life on The East Coast Dawn has a lovely blog. She lives in beautiful Suffolk. Fab way with words, very honest and inspirational photos.
Daffodils & Snowdrops I also love Em's photographs and write-ups of thrifty, retro and vintage places to visit.
Vintage Jelly Linzi makes me laugh out loud with her posts. Brilliant. Another blogger who loves fabric, crafting, being thrifty and growing your own.
Your Handmade Home Melissa is a clever lady making a living from sewing and crafting lovely homewares. She also has a teapot and vintage crockery obsession (like me).

~Christmas Foodie Treats~
Just wanted to share a couple of my favourite foodie treats that I bought today for Christmas. I visited Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, where I love the Little Delicatessen, which stocks deli food, local produce and local brewery ales (Sam Smiths & John Smiths breweries are in Tadcaster).

This is so gorgeous if like me, you love cherries...
Organic cherry fruit beer.
I bought a few bottles as Christmas day table gifts. How lovely is the artwork on the label too?
And Tracklements Chilli Jam....

Despite making my own Chilli Jam, this was the first one I ever bought years ago, and it remains top of my list. See Tracklements range here. Here it is in front of my Kitsch kitchen Christmas tree, and yes I have already had a spoonful! Hopefully there'll be some left for Christmas Day!
