After my first Christmas gift show last Saturday, I'm really getting into the Christmas spirit! On the train home I started to think about our Christmas menu and decided that when I got home I would start to experiment with the starter….
Here’s what I came up with - a gazpacho base with a white crab meat centre, topped with avocado guacamole and deep-fried Japanese bread-crumbed king prawns. It's then finished with a drizzle of mango vinaigrette with groundnut oil, ginger, chilli and lime juice. What do you think?! There's a photo on the right, but it's not that clear sorry!I tested the recipe out on my son Ali who gave the thumbs up. I'll let you know how the menu progresses!
In the meantime if you fancy a fashion fix catch the Fashion Gift show at 12 o’clock tomorrow - I'll be with you with some Style Inc and also Deerstag slippers. Also look out for the Pure & Simple Pashminas as they make fabulous Christmas gifts for loved ones.
I'd love to know what you'll be cooking over the festive period, let me know what you're doing and we can inspire each other!

Hi Glen, could you do me a BIG BIG favour when on your fashion shows doing shoes would you please make a point of stating the width of shoes , I need at least a EEE width and having ordered some styles thinking they would be ok only to find they have to be returned, Im ok in the summer with my Berkenstocks but would love some winter boots and smart flat shoes, would really be grateful for your help, Im with you on the Centigrade coats have three beauties now just love the quality and glamour of them.Thanks for all the tips, looking forward to your help on this, Best Wishes Margaretx
