Blogmas Day 6- Pizza Quesadillas

Hey Guys,

So lately I've been loving making the Old El Paso Quesadilla Kits and I saw a pin on pintrest that was pizza quesadilla's, so I thought that I would share it with you all since I like them so much. I cant remember who's board I found the recipe on but they are easy to cook and yummy to eat.

What you will need:-
Soft Corn Tortillas (two for each quesadilla)
Tomato Puree
Grated Cheese
Any Filling
Butter or Oil



Step 1- Put a pan on medium heat and add your oil or butter till its melted.



Step 2- Get a tortilla wrap and put cheese on top of it.


Step 3- spread a small amount of tomato purée onto the other wrap.


Step 4- Put the wrap with the cheese on in the pan till its melted and the wrap has gone brown on the bottom. 



Step 5- Take the cheese wrap out and put the other wrap with the tomato purée on in the pan. 


Step 6- Put the cheese wrap on top of the tomato purée wrap till its stuck together and all hot. 

I know this wasn't to do with Christmas but I hope you like this idea and if you try it don't forget to tag me in Instagram and leave a comment if you have any other cook quesadilla ideas for me. 

Question of the day- what is your favourite winter food?

Xoxo Lucy

Blogmas Day 5- Pre-Christmas Christmas

Hey Guys,

I wanted to share a little family tradition that my sister, her husband and me have created over the past few years and its called Pre-Christmas Christmas, which is basicly a mini version of christmas on the last weekend before December starts or the first weekend of December. We usually go to Bakwell Christmas market on the Saturday and then on Sunday have a mini christmas with a christmas dinner, secret Santa and putting up christmas decorations in her house. So I thought I would show you her christmas tree, my secret Santa gifts and my Christmas dinner!


We decided this year we wanted to fill the tree with as many baubles as we possibly could without it looking silly and I think we did quite well. 


Sorry if you are a vegetarian, but this is meat central! I had pigs in blankets, stuffing, Turkey with bacon on it, roast potatoes and gravy. It was definitely one of the best Christmas dinners I've ever had. 



So my secret Santa match this year was my sister and she got me this beautiful scarf, I've been wanting a new one for a while. She also got me an amazing book that we found in a second hand book shop and it's called Simon's cat. I love this book because it reminds me of my cats so much! 

I hope you liked learning about one of my family traditions if you have any cool traditions then don't forget to leave them in the comments and make sure to come back tomorrow for Blogmas day 6! 

Question of the day- Do you have any christmas traditions?

Winter Essentials

Hey Guys,

I'm sorry I've been rubbish at uploading this week, to make up for it I've spent a while changing my background ready for christmas I hope you like it! Also lately I've noticed that everyone has started to wear winter clothes, such as scarf's, hats and coats. So I decided that it was time for me to do an Autumn/Winter essentials blog post to tell you about some of my Winter essentials and hopefully give you some ideas. 

So here is some of the things that you might need when you go outdoors:-

1. Winter Boots to make sure you don't get cold feet.

2. Leggings are always good as they are cosy.

3. Jeans are a winter essential for everyone.

4. Scarf's are always good to keep you warm and they look pretty with outfits.















5.Gloves to keep your hands warm.

6. A coat to keep you all cosy.

7. Ear Muffs not an essential but are good I have cool ones with built in earphones.

8. Jumpers for the extra cold winter days.

9. Cardigans for the not as cold winter days.

10. A hat to keep all your heat in.














I though I would add some essentials for the Indoors too.

1. Big Cosy Blankets are always good if your a bit chilly inside.

2. Pyjamas are the cosiest thing to wear on a lazy day especially in winter.

3.  I wear slippers all the time in the winter especially slipper boots.
















4. Movies are always good for Wintery cosy days.

5.Hot Drinks are great to warm you up after being out in the cold.

















6. Bath Stuff is good all year round but I feel winter in bath season.


I hope that this post was helpful to at least one person to know what kind of things will be good for them to have this winter. Obviously not all of these are life or death items but I thought they were all items which would be nice to have this winter. Also sorry that I didn't upload last week I had a lot going on. 

xoxo Lucy
