I'd pick Christian Bale to be my butler
but make him say everything in his ridiculous Batman voice, which would terrify and amuse me in equal measures.

The worst thing about December is the weather. The only acceptable type of wet and cold is snow, and it almost never snows at Christmas. The best thing is presents and mulled wine and family and christmas trees and fairy lights and food and booze and...well, the list goes on, really.

I have never had or even seen white mulled wine
I've had white wine sangria though, which was lush.

Can you not just buy cheap red wine and a sachet of mulling herbs?

(berk, Thu 1 Dec 2011, 10:15, Reply)

God I don't know. I could probably just make a sachet myself and do it that way.
I shall have to try this closer to christmas.

I'd send you some, but I think Aus customs would be a bit weird about that
I've heard they get weird about many, many things. Also, they probably wouldn't arrive in time.

yeah we are a bit funny about what goes through customs. Herbs and spices are usually destroyed.
gaz me your recipe for it and I'll use that instead!
