Hello Everyone!! I'm back after a short festive break and I thought I'd show you all you nosy parkers (like me) what I got for Christmas! Santa was very good to me this year and I am so happy with all my pressies!

Morphy Richards Soup Maker - This was from the other half's mum and dad! I had been wanting this for ages so I can make lots of tasty soups to take to work! I like that this does the cooking and the blending for you, so less washing up!

Hairy Bikers Cookbook - My auntie bought me this book as she knows I've been following the Hairy Bikers diet cookbooks recently. I cannot wait to try out the recipes in this book. There are some amazing looking things in here!

Yankee Candle Wax Tart Burner - This was a present from my other half! I recently bought the matching tea light holder and I was desperate to get my hands on this! Also I don't have a wax tart burner so this is a great present! He also bought me 10 wax tarts to get me started. I got 5 baby powers tarts and lavender, black coconut, christmas cookie, icicles and sweet apple ones too! 

Cat Cushion and Small Jar Yankee Candles - This was a gift from my best friend (along with some highly inappropriate chocolate willies!) As you can see, she knows me very well! The scents she bought me were snowflake cookie and cranberry pear, two which I've been dying to try out! And how cute is this cushion?!

Kitten T-shirt - My parents brought me this back from Thailand. It is a lovely long top which will be perfect for wearing with leggings and boots!

Sequin Love Heart Jumper - This jumper is so fluffy and cosy! I've just started getting back into wearing jumpers again so this is a perfect addition to my wardrobe.

Leopard Print PJ's - Of course you need to get some new PJ's at Christmas. These were from Primark and they are just so soft! 

Tartan Leggings - My mum knows my style so well! I've had my eye on these for ages! I already have the matching top and skirt set and the colours are so lovely so these leggings will be well worn! These have gone in the New Look sale so you can grab these at a bargain price now!

Lush Goodies - I had been banging on to my other half for ages that I hadn't managed to get my hands on a bottle of snow fairy yet! Everytime I went into my local store, it was sold out! It was still sold out when he went in to get me some so he bought me this lovely gift box which contains a small bottle! He also picked up the other limited edition shower gel, hot toddy which smells so christmassy!  He also bought me a tub of the famous Lip Service lip balm!

Teddy Bear - This bear is wearing a t-shirt with I love Ed Sheeran on it! That says it all really ha ha! 

Stocking fillers from my parents - I always get a second stocking to open at my parents' house! They bought me this beautiful travel journal which I plan to fill with photos and keepsakes from my travels! They also got me this cute cat keyring and coin purse! And of course a giant tube of mentos! 

These were all gifts from my other half! 

Nashville DVD - I had watched the first season of Nashville on NowTv but they have not put up the second season yet so my other half bought me the DVD so I can finally see it! 

Ugg Slippers - These babies finally made their way into my life! I will now have cosy toes forever more! Just love them!

Husky Sled Ride - How amazing is this! I am desperate to get a husky puppy but we just don't have room for one in our little flat so my other half bought me a sled ride so I can see them at work! You get to spend 2 hours playing with the dogs too which I am so excited for! 

And finally my auntie bought me this giant bottle of Nando's sauce! The other half and I had an argument one night over a bottle of hot sauce and she bought this as a little joke! I'm sure this will be well used in our house since I absolutely love Nando's! 

So that is the majority of my Christmas presents! I will also be writing a little post about the 2 blogger secret santa's I took part in very soon, so keep your eyes peeled for that! 

I hope all my lovely readers have had a wonderful christmas! I'd love to see what Santa brought you, so leave me your links below!

Lush Bath Bomb Review

If there is one brand I can't live without, it has to be Lush! 

I was babysitting my little cousin a few weeks ago and I had nipped into Primark to grab some hair clips so my other half took my cousin to Lush to get out the rain! 

Whilst in there he treated me to this lovely bath bomb! (Direct Link)

 

It is probably just as well I wasn't with him at the time otherwise I would have bought this plus the rest of the shop! 

Anyway, I was feeling particularly stressed after a long day at work and uni the other day so I thought I would run myself a nice bath and try this out! 

 

From the appearance of the bath bomb, I totally didn't expect this lovely purple colour! 

It smelt great too! It was a very rich, fruity smell! The bathroom smelt amazing for ages after! And there was no stains on the bath after I let the water away either so my landlord can't complain!! 

The scent of the bomb stuck to my skin for at least 12 hours after which I would say is pretty good! Normal shower gel scents don't normally last anymore than 15 minutes on my skin!! 

I would definitely recommend trying this bath bomb! I am definitely adding these and other Lush items to my Christmas list! 

Have you tried any Lush products lately? I'd love to read your posts! Drop me a comment in the box below! :)
