Inspired by my dear friend Allison, I took up the challenge to take a photo each day in 2011 to document my life. I embarked on this with some trepidation (I was not sure I would remember to take a picture every day), and with some curiosity: I didn't have a plan for this project and I was excited to see how it would evolve. What would my life look like, day by day, throughout one year?

Well, one year on, I am addicted to this project. I already took a lot of photos of my children but I have loved the way the 365 challenge has disciplined me to think about and appreciate EVERY SINGLE day - and the precious moments in every day that in the past have flown by unnoticed... I am thrilled to continue with this blog in 2012 - although it really should be retitled: Day by Day 366! Looking forward to a new year...

Day 276: Christmas Cakes (part 1)

I don't know if I will have a photo for every stage of the Christmas cake process (there are at least four stages) but here is the first: mixing the dried fruit and soaking it in alcohol for a few days. This year, I used rum. I usually start making Christmas cakes at the end of September so I am a few days behind schedule but they need to be done in time for our Christmas bazaar on November 12th.
