Joining in with the ‘Making Winter’ project started by Silverpebble and Thriftyhousehold I thought I would bring you some photos of the things that have been making my winter so far. Going through my photos I was surprised by how many began with the letter C!
Firstly Candles, an absolute essential at this dark end of the year!
Cakes, of all shapes and sizes, these are rock cakes but there have been many varieties.
Candy Canes, mmmmmm!
Chilli, not terribly festive but warming all the same and most definitely vegetarian!
Christmas trees (this is just one of three) and Christmas Cards the number growing by the day!
Cookery book and Cat journal, a lovely giveaway win from Poppycock & Other Creative Nonsense blog. Thank you Sally! 🙂
Charlie the Cat, my gorgeous little man. 🙂
And finally Christmas Crochet, well I couldn’t do a post like this without squeezing in a bit of crochet now could I? 😉
Have a look here for links to more blogs taking part in ‘Making Winter’ and check out the Making Winter Flickr Pool too!
Thanks as always for visiting me here this week, have a wonderful weekend and for those of you waiting for Santa only 9 more sleeps!!! 🙂

YAY 🙂 Christmas crochet! That chili sure does look yummy.
You are absolutely right Vivienne: the letter ‘C’ does feature enormously around this time of year and you have managed to capture it beautifully with these photos. Perhaps you should write a children’s alphabet book or something similar? 🙂
Lovely, lovely Christmas C’s Vivienne! My favorites are cats, candy canes (I could eat hundreds) and candles. Cards we’re still happily expecting a few more and cookies…mmm…
Have a wonderful weekend!
Yours,
Mia
Your chilli looks yum! I’m going to try my hand at another christmas “c” craft this year- candy! Fudge, toffee, and, even, homemade boiled sweets! Can’t wait to get started 🙂
Candles always make for a cosy home this time of year, and with such delicious things to eat too I may be popping over to yours before you reach mine………………..congratulations on the bloggy win Vivienne, have a lovely weekend.

What a lovely post Vievenne, it certainly makes Winter fun. Obviously there had to be C for Cat there and C for Christmas…my 2 faves. Have a wonderful weekend, the last before C day!
Keep warm, it’s freezing here and I had to walk to work in the sleet this morning…yuk!

Charlie is the best ‘C’ of all! Have a lovely weekend Vivienne! x
I loved all your pictures for your wonderfully festive ‘C’ theme today, Vivienne. You can count me in to those things too….especially the cakes and candy canes! I hope you are enjoying a very cosy, Christmassy weekend!

Love the face of your little cat – beautiful! Cakes and candy canes must be two of my favourite “C:s”..! 🙂
HI Vivienne, what a lovely festive post, oh what scrummy food and cutesy Charlie! Happy new week x
I think all the best things must start with the letter C! I didn’t realise so many good things started with the letter C! Marvellous! Vanessa xxx
All of the C pictures look very cosy….my favourite would have to be Charlie the cat!
