Thank you @Elsa one thing I loved when I was a child was making paper chains for Christmas, we also helped my Aunt making homemade Christmas crackers for the charity Christmas Fayres. She had the metal tubes for shaping and twisting the ends, and she used to buy kits with crepe paper, card, mottos, bangers, and toys to fill them along with a Christmas motif to glue on the outside. It was great fun making them as well as decorating the boxes to put them in and covering them with cellophane. It just brought the Christmas magic back then so alive.
Thank you @Diamond Lim

Yeap @greddycandy there where those crackers too 🤗 Gingerbread houses are a relatively new to an oldie like me, and like @Elsa I would probably eat or have to nimble the gingerbread 😁 I don't have a sweet tooth, but I do love ginger biscuit.

Thank you @Elsa, beautiful poinsettias and really pretty pictures. Really makes you feel the holiday spirit all around. I love the gingerbread houses - edible houses and all the sweets. Those are some beautiful bells and nice story.

Yummy, I grew up on ginger biscuits, but as I got older I started developing a sweet tooth so anything with chocolate in it became my favourite except chocolate cake I prefer vanilla cake.
