Countdown to Christmas: Day 15


Another day of celebrating the countdown to Christmas!

Lizard



And another day of our festive Cornish getaway.

Grapefruit Shower Steamer



Today, my shower was scented with grapefruit!

Coastal Path Walk




We went for a walk from our cottage to Lizard village along the coastal path this morning. It's not a long walk, but it's very pretty.

Mince Pie at Twisted Lizard



We popped into Twisted Lizard, a quirky little gift shop that's opened since the last time we were here, to get a couple of Christmas gifts, and we got mulled wine and a homemade mince pie!

Ann’s Pasties



Our main reason for walking into Lizard (apart from the lovely scenery and the Christmas shopping) was to get a couple of pasties from Ann's Pasties, our favourite Cornish pasty shop!

Christmas Tree Cake



We also got these gorgeous cakes!

Abominable Books



As always, I've been saving my latest Abominable Books subscription box for a treat. I opened it this afternoon, and I got Feast While You Can by Mikaella Clements and Onjuli Datta, Marginal by Tom Carlisle, a festive flapjack and some other horror goodies.

Surviving Christmas



Tonight's Christmas film was Surviving Christmas.

Hotel Magnifique



After the film, I read Hotel Magnifique by Emily J. Taylor. What a gorgeous book this is! I absolutely loved it!

Advent Tea



Today's tea from my Bird and Blend advent calendar was Mulled Cider!

Advent Model



And today's model from our other advent calendar was a little snow plough!
