End of 2014 round-up

Here's a bit of a visual round up of what I got up to in the last part of 2014, before it is forgotten altogether.

In December I graduated with a Masters degree in history, got totally excited about my Lucky Dip Club cat-themed box, enjoyed a lot of hot chocolate with home-baked cookies and made some rather delicious cheese twists...

I made matching Christmas stockings for the whole 'family', and the cats enjoyed their first Christmas - Crumpet loved to climb the tree, while Pancake is here looking very maniacal trying to steal the decorations as I put them up...

The tree was a bit mismatched with lots of odd decorations like little Robin there, and with no real colour theme, but those are the best kind. We also went to the Christmas markets in Manchester and enjoyed lots of ice skating, which I can *almost* say I'm not too bad at now!

Just after Christmas comes my birthday. My boyfriend got me the tartan blouse on the right as I love tartan on everything at the moment, and I treated myself to the beautiful orange and black fox print satchel from Disaster Designs. We had a nice afternoon in the city and had tea and cake at Home Sweet Home in the Northern Quarter - I went for Rocky Road, but I can tell you their other cakes are insanely massive, this is a great place to go if you like a huge sugar overdose!

That's it, 2014 done!
