Today was a very busy day. Lots to do before tomorrow (which is going to be even busier) and then Christmas Day (also Rob's birthday).
Christmas Rainbow
I spent a big chunk of this afternoon shopping in Cheetham Hill. It was pretty hectic at Manchester Fort today, but literally everyone stopped in their tracks when an already impressive sunset gave way to the most incredible rainbow I've ever seen. It was so vivid, you could make out every single colour, and it was massive as well. I celebrated afterwards with a vegan Turkey & Trimmings Toastie and a Hazelnut Mocha at Costa (because I am a sucker for a festive menu).
Hannah’s Bookshelf Christmas Special
This afternoon was the Hannah's Bookshelf Christmas Special on North Manchester FM, when I talked about a selection of festive books that were published this year.
Christmas Pie
We were able to do one of our Christmas traditions that we had to miss last year... Christmas Pie! It's Christmas, but in a pie. I was so tired from all the preparations that I couldn't be bothered cutting pastry leaves for the top, so I just stuck some holly leaves on there (we didn't eat them though). We watched It's a Wonderful Life and then had salted caramel chocolate tarts for pudding.
