The Christmas cards and decorations may not be homemade this year, but I will certainly make an effort to do some cooking with my little boy (especially as he has received some very impressive train cookie cutters for his birthday).
Children of all ages love baking and it is a great way to spend some quality time together (and enjoy eating the results too!)
Why not give these Cranberry & Cinnamon Cookies a try? The recipe comes from our fantastic new cookbook Good Food, Fast, which is on sale now.

Even at 35, I still get excited opening that little window each day as the ‘main event’ gets nearer.
My three year-old gets most perturbed when he opens the door to reveal a sticker rather than a chocolate – I don’t think he has quite grasped the meaning of Christmas yet!
It’s time to start preparations in earnest; get those Christmas cards sent (especially with this unpredictable weather), wrap the gifts and cook, cook, cook!
This rich, fruity, nutty Kent Plum Pudding is derived from Sussex Pudding. There are many variations of it found in different regions of the country.

The midweek rush to get a meal on the table can often result in a hastily cooked pizza or other oven-meal.
However, if you prepare ahead a little when time is not so precious, you can eat great food mid-week too.
Try making Spiced Plums for the freezer. You can make not one but two delicious meals from it – such as Stir-fry Pork with Spiced Plum Sauce and Plum Semi-Freddo.

Maybe I haven’t quite grown up yet, but I think I love the magic of Bonfire night just as much as my two year-old!
We enjoyed an organised firework spectacle on Saturday and have our own version this weekend coming – no doubt with spectacularly unimpressive fireworks!
So, I shall be busy making some warming food for us to savour while watching the fireworks fizzle. If you’re planning a Bonfire party give Red Pepper Soup a try. It’s perfect in a mug with a hotdog or cheesy toast on the side.
Don’t forget, you still have a chance at winning a Good Grips Apple Corer/Slicer http://www.dairydiary.co.uk/competitions.html
Ideal for a quick and tasty snack. Try crisp English Cox apples; serve with a couple of crackers and a chunk of your favourite cheese.
