It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas …

The older I get, the faster time flies by. I still remember planning my Easter break a while ago, and now

it’s that time of year again when shopping malls are filled with holly and lights and you can hear the lady at the till humming along to Boney M.

From our family to yours, a merry Christmas and a happy new year! And we hope you enjoy our fun-filled Christmas issue. It really does contain something for everyone: crafts and DIY, yummy recipes, great gift ideas, summer fashion trends and much more.

Have a wonderful festive season!Warm Regards, Tenille (AWSUM Editor)

We wish to thank our loyal clients and suppliers for their continued support and wish them all a wonderful festive season

The real toffee apples A delicious treat for the kids, and one which they can help make too. Be extra careful with hot caramel and little fingers. Makes 10

Here is what you need:10 wooden skewers10 small Granny Smith apples500 g granulated sugar1 cup water5 ml vinegar45 ml golden syrup5 ml red food colouringPreparationPlace a sheet of baking paper onto a baking tray. Insert a skewer into each apple, arrange the apples on the tray and set aside. Here is what you do:To Make the toffeePlace the sugar, water and vinegar into a saucepan over low heat and stir until all the sugar has dissolved. Then add the syrup and bring to the boil. Boil until the mixture reaches 150 °C on the sugar thermometer (this is the temperature test to follow when making hard crack caramel).If you don’t have a thermometer, test a little syrup by dropping a teaspoon of syrup into cold water. If it sets rock hard immediately it is ready. Remove from the heat and place the sauce-pan into a sink of cold water to cool the mixture. Once it has stopped bubbling, add the red food colouring and swirl around untilfully incorporated.

Dipping the apples:Dip the apples into the toffee syrup and swirl around until they are fully coated. Remove from the syrup and place onto the baking paper. Set aside until completely cooled and the toffee has hardened. Author’s tip: Wrap coloured twine or tie ribbon around the skewers and place the toffee apples on a wooden board. If you are using them for a party you can make little flags to glue onto the skewers with the child’s name written on them. © Sarah Dall For the love of Baking

SWARTBORD-KERSFEESKRANSKan jy dit glo: Kersfees is weer óp ons! En daar is báie dinge om reg te kry, en selfs méér om te onthou ... Nou gaan ons ’n

raam maak wat jou met al die onthou sal help – nommerpas vir Kersfees, en baie prakties. En nou kan jy, omdat jy mos ’n stylvolle mens is, ál jou Kersfeesdinge stylvol onthou. Of jy kan bloot iets moois daarop skryf

– dit is tog nie elke dag Kersfees nie! Jy benodig:● ’n Basis vir die swart-bord-Kersfeeskrans. Ek gebruik sommer ’n stuk ou kartonplank (“hardboard”)● Metaalkleurige verf met ’n “textured” basis ● Kouelym of Mod Podge™ en vernis met ’n waterbasis● Blomraam (op karton gedruk) ● Verfkwas● Skêr

1. Trek ’n ligte sirkel waar die twee kleure mekaar ontmoet – dit is daar waar jy die blomme gaan plak.2. Verf die eerste laag. Jy kan énige verf of agter-grond gebruik. .3. Wend die swartbordverf met ’n sponsroller aan. Ongeveer drie lae sal voldoende wees en ’n mooi soliede dekking bied. 4. Rangskik die prente

sodat dit ’n mooi sirkel vorm. Knip dit uit ... en plak! 5. Wanneer die gom droog is, wend dan ’n lagie waterbasis-vernis oor die papierblom-krans aan om dit te beskerm. LET OP! Verf versigtig rondom die blompatroon se randjies. Jy wíl nie vernis oor die swartbordverf hê nie, aangesien dit die swartbord-effek belemmer.

6. Nou kan jy die swartbord-Kerskrans ophang. Of dit op ’n rak sit. Of dit neersit waar jy wil, en dit rondskuif soos en wanneer jy wil.

DISARONNO, the world’s favourite Italian liqueur, will be back on Christmas wish

lists this year with a glamorous new look, designed by Versace. The luxury fashion

house has dressed the iconic bottle in the decadent style for which it has

earned its reputation worldwide.

collaboration: “For the second year running we are so

proud to be partnering with another of the world’s finest

Italian fashion houses. To be able to include Moschino and

Versace amongst our list of collaborators is a real

honour.” The project supports the charity

‘Fashion 4 Development,’ sponsored by the United

Nations. DISARONNO will once again donate part of the

proceeds towards the development of this unique

project in Africa.

The exclusive limited edition will be available in most reputable

liquor stores and bars nationwide until stocks last.

The suggested retail price is from R220 per bottle.

It’s a dilemma facing every family with a child eager to get behind the wheel. Parents already own three-quarters of the vehicles they designate for kids. But a lot of these vehicles may not be appropriate for teens.

A third of the vehicles that kids drive are more than 10 years old; a quarter are sports cars or other small, zippy models.

When parents think about cars for teens, they rightly emphasize things like fuel economy and reliability. But they need to give top priority to the vehicle’s safety. Only about 20% of parents in a recent survey said safety was the most important factor when selecting a vehicle for a teen.

Teens crash cars four times more often than people 20 and over. That’s partly why we give our kids junkers, so they can bend fenders that have relatively little value. By going the cheap route, though, you could miss out on recent advances. Cars today are the safest we’ve ever seen. Accidents among 18-year-olds (the highest-risk drivers) fell 40 percent, due mostly to better vehicle design and safety features.

Whether you’re considering a vehicle at a dealership or one already parked in your driveway, here are a few questions to consider before buying:Big or Small?Basic or Loaded?

New or Used?Dull or Dream?

Obviously these decisions are also budget related. So why not contact one of our dealers on this page to give you expert advise on this big decision.

Happy Holidays
