Happy New Year’s Eve
Gráinne got a lovely present for Christmas, which she wants to share with Tipsy!
.
.
First she chopped up some fruitcake with her trusty cutlass…
.
.
Then she and Tipsy crumbled it into crumbs…
.
.
…and added a dash of rum (and some melted chocolate which we didn’t photograph since it was very hot and we had to mix it quickly!)
.
.
Two kinds of coatings were prepared…
.
.
…and a cooky sheet with parchment…
.
.
…then little balls of mixture were formed and then rolled in the coatings…
.
.
We made lots!

It’s going to be a fun New Year’s Eve party tonight with all these tantalizing treats!!
Happy end of 2024 to all, and love from the Quimper Hittys and their human.



















Happy New year to you too and to your family including the Hitties. Enjoy the treats.
We will (and did!) Happy New Year to you and yours!
Thank you. So far so good!
Adorable. Hope 2025 is filled with joy
Thanks so much – and we hope you enjoy some joy too!
Happy New Year to you and yours, and may 2025 be a wonderful surprise with unexpected delights and happiness and goodness and kindness and loveliness!!!!! ❤
We hope for all the delights for you too, kindness given and received is the best golden rule!
Thank you and yes, it is indeed! 🙂
What a clever human and little accompanying dolls there are at the QH household! May blessings abound in 2025 for you and your kin.
The human fruitcakes were a little scorched around the edges…this was a really good (and delicious) way to salvage all the work, even though it meant more work!
Yum!
blessings to all, human and wooden and the very best wishes for peace, love and fun in the new year. Can’t to see what the Hittys get up to in 2025.
We like peace, love and fun! We hope the same for you and the gang up the hill from us!!
what a clever use of fruitcake crumbs! And it looks so tasty. Always love seeing Grainne in action….wielding her sabre!!! And to see her in an apron…my goodness, how versatile she is.
Gráinne is proud of her skeleton apron, even if it is only fish skeletons. She says it reminds her of Davy Jones’s Locker! She is our resident Rum Ball expert, so we were glad she was in the mood to cook today! She says they taste much better than weevily biscuits!
So beautiful, Thank you dear Hitty Lady, Happy New Year, Love, nia
Cutting the fruitcake with the cutlass made me laugh!
The treats they made for the party look delicious 🙂
