I always remember feeling so special as a little girl that I got to celebrate two Christmases every year. I have to admit, I still have that exact same feeling now.

For me, Diwali and Christmas are all about joy, fun, laughter, celebrating with those you love and of course lots of delicious food!

I’m still pretty shocked I still have all my teeth…

…considering all the Indian sweets I had the pleasure of eating for years, and of course still treat myself to every now and again.

There’s always so much colour and sparkle on these occasions too, which I try my best to retain throughout the year with bright outfits and spangly jewellery!

So here’s to the first of two fabulous festive celebrations.

I have that giddy little girl feeling in my tummy already.
