mini Peanut Butter Cup in mineGrin

I've given up on cat ones - my cat always half sucks those green catnip things and leaves the sesulting slime in my duvet - I just give her a treat I've sneaked out of a bag when I open a window.

A "Singing Carols" Yankee Candle tealight. Yes, I love Yankee Candles and I don't care who knows it. It will be lovely to have one to burn every evening.

A teaspoon ( Bonne Maman ) presumably to eat all the marmalade to follow.
There's jam too in today's Bonne Maman one. It's a double door!

I'm feeling sorry for myself these days that no bugger notices me so I'm going out to buy myself a lindt one today.

Fridafever · 01/12/2021 08:49

The paperclips are from the cult pens Japanese stationery calendar. I’m so excited about it

ThePlantsitter · 01/12/2021 08:49

I got an exit game one. So I'm stuck in an underground ice cave and I got a clue to open December 2's door.

A little candle - I have the Rituals one.

And
A picture of the Annunciation with Gabriel and Mary, in my lovely Milan Cathedral calendar.

I’ve got a Lindt one as well to open later, it’s too early for chocolate for me!

OMG! DD opened the 'nice traditional' advent calendar this morning and it's only got bloody bible passages in it instead of pictures!!!
