Christmas // What It Looked Like At My Home x

This year I hosted Christmas at my home for the very first time. It was such a beautiful day filled with family, love, enjoying the new outdoor entertainment area my partner Dale built himself & of course the amazing vegan menu I cooked for my loved ones!

I don't agree with how frenzied Christmas time can become, so I ensure I gift my family with heartfelt, usually handmade presents. And instead of buying different ornaments, I enjoy styling my table, & home, with items I have made myself or foraged for in the forest behind us. I find pieces like pine cones, gum nuts & native plants work so well as they are already dried or dry nicely, so you can use the same adornments for a while. I then like to reuse them for different season events such as equinox's, Halloween etc.

The Food

The menu, & my house in general is completely vegan. Living beings do not have to suffer at the hands of my food. Pumpkin 'Mac & Cheese', Tofurky Roast, & Roasted Vegetables with a cashew cream dill sauce.
