Silk Road Bazaar

Every year my family get a Christmas Eve box, it has a pair of pajamers, a puzzle and chocolate or a bag of sweets so we can sit together and have some good old fashioned wholesome times.

 

I also put in a christmas decoration each, the idea is that every year the tree gets an addition, a memory (usually a fight over who actually got it)  and my hopes are when my children start their own families / christmas trees they will have a small box of ornaments to be their starters.

 

(I told you it was wholesome) while I was looking personally for this years additions, I found the Silk Road bazaar and apart from the fact that nothing has made me giggle more than the Bernie Sanders one with his little mittens and mask the co-operative of the women of Central Asia who need work, skills and income and get it through this programme is what Christmas really is all about ( and a tiny bit of baileys and love actually) just saying.
