Blimey, we are at week 50 already! I found out today that this year has 53 weeks and not 52, I thought all years had 52 weeks, I thought it was the rule. Apparently not. There I was thinking we had two weeks left and as if by magic another one appears! Hello week 53 and welcome to 2015.
This week’s Through the Lens Thursday prompt is ‘Packed’. Through the Lens Thursday is a year long weekly project hosted by Greta at GFunkified blog to improve our photography skills using our big girl cameras and not just the phone. I usually just snap away on the phone and I need to keep practicing my ‘proper’ camera skills.
Today I made mince pies with homemade mincemeat which I made from this Jamie Oliver recipe. I packed in the mincemeat for a nice generous filling. Now I am trying not to eat them all!
I hope your Thursday is going well!

These mince pies look excellent, Clare! We are getting a delivery from my mum today!
Mince pies for the win! I need to make more.
I have no idea what mincemeat is… I have visions of what I think it is but if it was, it wouldn’t be very appetizing. It sure is pretty, though, especially with those gorgeous bulbs.
Ha! Mincemeat is made by soaking dried fruit in port (or similar) then it gets put in mini pies called mince pies.
