Oh I am so sorry that Christmas had sad memories for you.It's always great to start your own traditions.

Thank you for sharing such precious memories. Yes this is why I try so hard to make great Christmas memories too. You know you have reminded me of my mom's trifle and I am going to try to make one this year now.

That trifle is awesome and whoever made it has picked up the mantle - such lovely memories - so bittersweet and I'm sorry for that - but you're right about how they're the most important thing and the fact you don't remember your tree says it all. I sincerely hope you and your family enjoy many more happy ones, particularly this year :) x

Christmas 2010 has special memories for me, because we were all together for the last time before my father-in-law was diagnosed with cancer. We miss him lots, but have a big canvas picture up on the wall of us all around the table that year, smiling and enjoying ourselves. Sounds a bit cliched, but I really do believe in the saying "Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened." Although he's not with us, we like to share memories and have a good laugh about all the fun times.

Christmas should be about family, making memories and traditions. I love the thought of the hostess trolley with the fondant fancies and Tunnocks teacakes.

Some lovely memories there Cass, and some bittersweet. An important reminder that Christmas can be a really hard time of year for so many... I am looking forward to going home this year, and I will make sure I cherish it. Thank you x
