Fell down the stairs with arms full of presents on Christmas Eve night. Presents were ok but I had a nasty bump on the head and woke up the kids who thought it was Santa.

My 12 year old is taking on the Christmas baking this year. As we both have coeliac disease I try to show her that being gluten free shouldn’t mean missing out on good food (even if you have to make it yourself!) Thanks @beckyexcell.bsky.social for this chocolate orange log recipe!
