"POP" goes the...crackers!

Remember the good ol' days of "popping" the christmas crackers during christmas parties? I always looked forward to popping one so that I could get my hands on those cute little novelty items inside.

I took this picture of some really old christmas crackers which my mum kept all these years since when my brothers and I were little kids (it's more than 20 years old believe it or not!!). Its was so pretty that my mum decided to keep them and made sure that we did not lay our hands on them. And it's still looking good.....if only I could peek in and see what's inside.... :) Feliz Navidad!

A new kid on the blo-g

Yeah yeah.....I know blogging has been around for ages....so what if I just learnt how to do it? It's always never too late to learn new (errr...quite old actually :P) things right? Anyway, I owe my thanks to shabbyblogs.com because it is from this blog that I learnt many things about templates, buttons, borders etc etc. and it's all FREE!!! Thanks so much Keren! Thanks for sharing......I am also inspired by the daily spiritual thots that she puts in her blog as well. Blessings to you!
