Wherever you are, I hope you’re having the best Christmas. Most of my family live overseas, meaning that when we do Christmas we tend to celebrate a week or so in advance. Which is exactly what we did last night. Between the David Bowie-topped Christmas tree to the sparkling new Tardis in the backyard (um, did I mention that my Aunt is probably the coolest person in the entire world), it was a goodie.

Now, I’ve been a solid vegetarian for fifteen years (over half my life, yo) but I can certainly appreciate when a meaty dish looks good. Roast chicken, paella topped with octopus and salmon topped the table, although I was more than satisfied with my chickpea and almond salad paired alongside oven roasted onions and vine tomatoes. What can I say; when my family decide to do Christmas, we go all out.

It seemed like a great opportunity to really put my DAILIES TOTAL1 contact lenses to work – after all, a late night was inevitable and I had gotten up quite early. These babies kept my eyes feeling really, really good, with no excessive blinking and not even the faintest trace of dry eyes. When I got home, I simply washed my hands before quickly removing my lenses and dumping them directly in my closest rubbish bin. Nice and easy for the gal on the go (the gal who had downed several glasses of champagne, might I add!)
