    Awwwwww lovely silver wear, the cake slice is particularly nice. Don’t be too hard on yourself Helen, we all have limited patience, specially at this time of year , you’ve been so busy and done a great job for your family, plus sharing it all with us. Honestly, I do feel that men do have it easier. My husband still puts things in the wrong cupboards, on the wrong shelves, in the wrong drawers or asks the same questions that Rob does, and we don’t have time to go into the rest 🤣🤣🤣. We’re just hard wired for organising things, you’re not alone my lovely . You can relax now and enjoy. Happy Christmas to you all. ❤

    I liked all your shopping purchases Helen. My favourite like a lot of followers is the individual spoons for bread sauce etc. It feels so good when Christmas shopping is completed. Thank you Helen.

    Hi Helen.
    The spoons are a lovely find.
    The bread sauce spoon shape is exactly like my mum's tea caddy spoon, 💖💖 brings back memories, thank you.

    Hi Helen. It’s hard to stop when it comes to Christmas shopping but usually, my purse tells me when enough is enough !! I really liked the selection of spoons and Christmas markets often have such individual items and it’s great to support small, independents. I think Christmas stockings are such fun. I remember waking up on Christmas morning and loving all the small gifts inside.I think us ladies have a lot of stress and pressure at this festive time - we have to do the majority of planning and purchasing and it’s quite exhausting. Nice to see you on Monday!❤️🎄🥰

      @@HelenmaryjoI had the audacity to tell my ex that the least he could do for his children ( my step kids) was to pick up some wrapping paper since I’d bought special for my kids the year we did the different coloured papers and no tags to fool them. He didn’t but he did wrap the two gifts he got me in newspaper and put them under the tree by everyone’s prettily wrapped gifts ,there was nothing in my stocking that year except a few bits of candy that everyone got as well. Now it’s just me with my kids and grandkids and I get what I want 🤣😂🙋🏼‍♀️

      I agree on one level, but equally there are lots of bargains to be had... and no-one 'has' to do any of it.

    Thank you Helen for taking your time to fill us in on all the bargains to be had👍🌲i love love love watching you as you are so down to earth and open about everything. And yes blooming men can be really trying you can have done something for years and they ask how we want done😤😫😤😫 annoying and funny at the same time…. I find it so hard to STOP buying as long as the shops are open I just need to get one more thing. What’s really annoying is when you see something and do not get it as hubby is saying you don’t need it, then I get home wish I had got it go to get it the next day GONE😫😫😫 Happy Christmas to you and your family… looking forward to watching more from you. Dee xx 🌲🌲

    This was a late surprise for me Helen I watched your M & Co earlier and then spent a couple of hours writing cards. I was squinting at you on this... I've had a swollen cornea for about 10 days. Quite painful. The eyedrops I've to use during the day are ok but at night it's a gel which tends to blur my vision. I had to have the screen practically on my nose to see what you'd got so early this morning. It was a lovely surprise to see (well nearly see) you twice in the one evening. Men! If yer man here says one more time, did WE send a card to so and so, I tell you he'll be on thin ice!! Grrr!!! ❤
