0:19:45 > 0:19:50- You can either buy them fresh - or frozen but you need about 300g.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54- Of the entire Christmas dinner...
0:19:54 > 0:19:58- ..I think that this - is the easiest part to make.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01- You can make it beforehand.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03- Many people buy it - but it's easy to make.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08- Yes, and it has a much better - flavour when you make it yourself.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- Bring this to the boil.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15- They can be quite sour - so you'll need to add some sugar.
0:20:15 > 0:20:21- I'm using about 150g - of Demerara sugar.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25- Add the sugar and stir it - until the sugar has dissolved.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27- If you make it beforehand...
0:20:28 > 0:20:31- ..does it need to be kept - in a sealed jar in the fridge?
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- Yes, I'd store it - in a sealed jam jar.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40- It's unlike jam because it - doesn't have a high sugar content...
0:20:40 > 0:20:43- ..so it doesn't keep as well as jam.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48- But I only finished last year's - cranberry sauce in November...
0:20:49 > 0:20:51- ..so just in time for this year!
0:20:51 > 0:20:56- I simply kept it in the fridge - so it should be fine to do that.
0:20:56 > 0:21:00- You could add - a cooking apple to this...
0:21:01 > 0:21:02- ..so it forms a relish.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06- You could also - add onions or shallots.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09- There's so many things you can add.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12- I like an orange flavour...
0:21:12 > 0:21:16- ..so will be adding the zest - of two satsumas.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18- They are the same as clementines.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- These remind you of Christmas.
0:21:21 > 0:21:26- They are at their best at this - time of year and full of juice.
0:21:26 > 0:21:31- I've squeezed the juice out of two - satsumas and there's a lot of juice.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33- It's like a whole orange.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35- Yes, exactly.
0:21:35 > 0:21:40- Add the juice as it gives a great - flavour and bring it to the boil.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42- Here's one I made earlier.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46- You could serve it just as it is...
0:21:46 > 0:21:50- ..or you could add some alcohol.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54- There's an orange theme - so add an orange liqueur.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58- You could use Cointreau, - Grand Marnier or Da Mhile liqueur...
0:21:58 > 0:22:02- ..that's made in Llandysul - at Caws Teifi Cheese.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05- It's great to support local produce.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07- You've used plenty of it.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- That's more than I was expecting.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14- Stir it together - but I add it at the end...
0:22:15 > 0:22:18- ..so you don't burn off the alcohol - and it has a kick!
0:22:19 > 0:22:22- Do you add that - before it goes into the jam jar?
0:22:22 > 0:22:25- Yes, but only if you want alcohol.
0:22:25 > 0:22:30- It's probably best to avoid it - if you have children!
0:22:30 > 0:22:34- We're not suggesting - that you give your children alcohol.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39- Could you mash it up so that there - aren't any lumps for children?
0:22:40 > 0:22:44- Put it in a food processor or - liquidizer for a smooth consistency.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47- Children don't like lumpy food.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49- I was like that - which is why I asked!
0:22:50 > 0:22:52- There's something popping here.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55- Yes, the fruit will start to pop...
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- ..and release - the juices and flavour.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00- Once they start to pop...
0:23:00 > 0:23:05- ..remove it from the hob or turn - down the heat and allow it to rest.
0:23:05 > 0:23:11- Next, I'll prepare the sausages - or the pigs in blankets.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15- I prefer to use - good quality sausages for this...
0:23:15 > 0:23:19- ..so I'm using - a normal chipolata sausage.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22- You can make them smaller...
0:23:23 > 0:23:27- ..by simply pinching the middle - and twisting it.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29- It gives you two pieces.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33- I'd happily eat a whole one!
0:23:33 > 0:23:38- It's easy to do - and these sausages are 90% meat.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40- Oh, these are starting to jump out.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Mind your trousers!
0:23:44 > 0:23:48- Next, we have some streaky bacon - or some pancetta.
0:23:49 > 0:23:53- Wrap half a slice - around each sausage.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56- I like to put - two of these together...
0:23:57 > 0:24:00- ..on a cocktail stick.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04- You can place a bay leaf - between each of the sausages.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07- It adds another flavour to the mix.
0:24:07 > 0:24:11- Yes, and they resemble small kebabs.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14- What do you do to those sausages?
0:24:14 > 0:24:18- I've got a sage leaf with a - whole sausage on a cocktail stick...
0:24:19 > 0:24:21- ..that's wrapped in bacon.
0:24:21 > 0:24:25- I was going to show you how to carve - the turkey but I'm out of time.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29- With gusto!
0:24:29 > 0:24:30- And enthusiasm.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33- Thank you and we'll try that now.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37- You can see all those recipes...

0:27:22 > 0:27:25- Elen van Bodegom - has joined us in the studio.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28- Welcome to the programme.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- Huw would say - that it's all very tasteful.
0:27:31 > 0:27:35- Yes, but reasonably priced or items - found in your home or garden.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39- When should we put up - the decorations?
0:27:39 > 0:27:42- Everyone knows - when to take them down.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46- This week is the best time - to put up your decorations.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49- These decorations - are great for any lounge.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51- Elin put hers up a fortnight ago.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54- Elin put hers up a fortnight ago.- - You put yours up three weeks ago!
0:27:54 > 0:27:56- I haven't put mine up yet.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00- There's some great ideas - so we'll start in the corner.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04- It's a cake stand - with baubles in the middle...
0:28:05 > 0:28:08- ..holly from the garden - and branches from the tree.
0:28:08 > 0:28:14- My Christmas tree is against a wall - or window and one side is hidden...
0:28:15 > 0:28:19- ..so I take cuttings from the back - and put them to good use.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21- It's very effective.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23- Yes, and it's so simple.
0:28:23 > 0:28:28- Place the baubles in the middle and - scatter the branches around them.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30- The next one is a wine glass.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34- Yes, it's a wine glass - filled with cranberries.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37- You might buy them - to make a sauce for Christmas Day.
0:28:38 > 0:28:39- I love cranberry sauce.
0:28:39 > 0:28:44- They are topped neatly - with some red carnations.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47- If this is the size - of your wine glasses...
0:28:47 > 0:28:50- ..then I'm coming to you - for Christmas!
0:28:50 > 0:28:52- It's a whopper of a glass.
0:28:52 > 0:28:56- It needs to be big enough - so that it can be filled.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00- I've used the red carnations again - but with hydrangeas.
0:29:01 > 0:29:02- They grew over summer...
0:29:03 > 0:29:08- ..so I let the flowers dry before - spraying them with silver paint.
0:29:09 > 0:29:13- They don't have to be silver - as you could use a gold spray paint.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16- I love candles - but they can be dangerous.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19- They create a great atmosphere.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23- These candles are in the middle - of a cake stand...
0:29:23 > 0:29:26- ..with berries and holly.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29- We've had strong winds recently...
0:29:29 > 0:29:33- ..so everyone bought more candles - in case there's a power cut...
0:29:34 > 0:29:36- ..so they are in people's drawers.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40- Yes, and everyone has greenery - in their garden.
0:29:40 > 0:29:42- Go out and take some cuttings.
0:29:43 > 0:29:44- It would be a lovely centrepiece.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46- It would be a lovely centrepiece.- - I'd have it on my table.
0:29:46 > 0:29:51- Next, there's more wine glasses - but used in a different way.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54- Place them upside down - on a mirror...
0:29:54 > 0:30:00- ..fill them with leftover baubles - and place candles on the top.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04- The mirror creates a reflection - but you can buy those easily?
0:30:05 > 0:30:08- Yes, these are readily available - on the high street...
0:30:08 > 0:30:13- ..such as The Range or Dunelm and - found where they store the candles.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17- It's similar to something - you'd have at a wedding.
0:30:17 > 0:30:21- This is another lovely centrepiece - and it's so simple.
0:30:21 > 0:30:25- It's important - to have them in a cluster.
0:30:25 > 0:30:28- Are you artistic on Christmas Day?
0:30:28 > 0:30:31- I love it - and have to refer to the next one.
0:30:32 > 0:30:36- I got married at Christmas - and had similar table decorations.
0:30:37 > 0:30:38- I loved them!
0:30:38 > 0:30:41- It's simply a jug - that I found in my home...
0:30:42 > 0:30:44- ..and filled it with greenery.
0:30:44 > 0:30:49- There's greenery from the garden, - stilby, gipsofilia and berries.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51- It's so easy.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54- Cut the greenery - and place it in the jug.
0:30:54 > 0:30:58- It creates the essence of Christmas - without flowers.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01- It's very traditional - for Christmas Day.
0:31:01 > 0:31:05- This can sit by a fireplace - as opposed to your table.
0:31:05 > 0:31:10- Next, I've got something - from the house that can be recycled.
0:31:10 > 0:31:15- It takes more time - but these are simply jam jars.
0:31:15 > 0:31:19- You can use any - leftover wrapping paper...
0:31:19 > 0:31:22- ..and stick it to the jar - with some PVA glue.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26- Spray it with glitter - and allow it to dry.
0:31:26 > 0:31:31- I've tied leftover ribbon around it - and filled it with greenery...
0:31:31 > 0:31:35- ..because the patterns - are already very busy.
0:31:35 > 0:31:40- It's more personal - because you've made it yourself.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42- You can keep it for next year.
0:31:42 > 0:31:48- Don't spend a fortune on a vase - but recycle items you have at home.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51- Does everyone come to you - for Christmas?
0:31:51 > 0:31:53- No, not at all.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56- They won't have any wine glasses!
0:31:56 > 0:32:01- Every year, I make something - for everyone in my family.
0:32:02 > 0:32:03- This is lovely.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06- All the items here are from my home.
0:32:06 > 0:32:10- We've all got a vase, - cake stand, jar or jug.
0:32:11 > 0:32:12- I like that tray.
0:32:12 > 0:32:16- Yes, and I've used sherry glasses - this time.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18- You like glasses!
0:32:18 > 0:32:21- They are a more sensible size - than the wine glasses.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24- And there's a candle in middle...
0:32:24 > 0:32:28- ..that's surrounded - by some crystals.
0:32:28 > 0:32:32- I've used the gipsofelia - and trimmings from the tree again.
0:32:32 > 0:32:36- There's more cranberries - but with roses.
0:32:36 > 0:32:39- Cut them to the size of the vase...
0:32:39 > 0:32:42- ..and fill it with cranberries.
0:32:42 > 0:32:47- They are both a deep red which is - a great colour for Christmas.
0:32:47 > 0:32:50- And finally, I've got some branches.
0:32:50 > 0:32:54- There's also pine cones that you can - get in the garden or buy them.
0:32:54 > 0:32:58- I've sprayed the branches - with some fake snow.
0:32:58 > 0:33:04- You could either hang some baubles - or the pine cones from the branches.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07- "Coed y Moch" - is a great name for pine cones.
0:33:07 > 0:33:13- My husband won't be happy as - we'll have more items in our home!
0:33:14 > 0:33:17- Those were some excellent ideas.
0:33:17 > 0:33:22- We've already seen Elin Fflur - stuffing her Christmas stocking...
0:33:22 > 0:33:23- ..with an array of CDs.
0:33:24 > 0:33:28- It's time for Heledd Gwyndaf - to stuff her Christmas stocking.
0:33:28 > 0:33:33- She's got an array of Welsh books - that have hit the shelves.
0:33:36 > 0:33:42- Books and books everywhere and - a good read can make my Christmas.
0:33:42 > 0:33:47- There's no limit of books this year - but what do you buy?
0:33:49 > 0:33:53- You might think North Wales - is a quiet place but think again.
0:33:53 > 0:33:58- John Alwyn Griffiths' - detective novel, Dan Gwmwl Du...
0:33:58 > 0:34:00- ..will quell those thoughts.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02- Norte by Jon Gower...
0:34:02 > 0:34:07- ..is the novel for this Christmas - with its epic story.
0:34:07 > 0:34:12- Dewch at Eich Gilydd by Meg Elis - takes us to the melting pot...

0:39:10 > 0:39:16- Every high street shop, even Marks - and Spencer have sequin skirts.
0:39:16 > 0:39:20- On Monday, Sioned, - who is modelling for us later...

0:39:29 > 0:39:32- We've got a picture of Patricia - in her skirt.
0:39:32 > 0:39:36- Patricia's sparkly skirt - is from H&M.
0:39:36 > 0:39:40- There's movement in the colour.
0:39:40 > 0:39:45- Let's see Patricia in the same skirt - but with different accessories.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47- It looks totally different.
0:39:48 > 0:39:52- These sparkly items - are not just for the evening...
0:39:52 > 0:39:55- ..but can be worn - with items of daywear.
0:39:55 > 0:39:56- Patricia loves this outfit.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58- Patricia loves this outfit.- - She's like a film star in disguise!
0:39:59 > 0:40:02- Patricia is just like - a film star anyway.
0:40:02 > 0:40:07- The hat and the cape - make for a very creative look.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10- It borders on being a designer look.
0:40:10 > 0:40:14- It isn't overpowering - as there's only a line of sequins.
0:40:15 > 0:40:19- We can change this - as there's many wears to wear this.
0:40:19 > 0:40:22- Patricia can remove the cape.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24- I'll take the bag off you.
0:40:24 > 0:40:27- We'll replace the cape - with a waistcoat.
0:40:28 > 0:40:31- Put on the waistcoat - and we'll lose the hat too.
0:40:32 > 0:40:37- It transforms the look and proves - you can wear it with many things.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40- We've also got a classic bag.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44- This could take you from the day - to an evening party.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46- Time is against us so who's next?
0:40:47 > 0:40:48- It's Sharon.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50- Can I give this to you, Mari?
0:40:51 > 0:40:53- Sharon is next.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56- Let's see how Sharon looked earlier.
0:40:56 > 0:41:00- It's a beautiful skirt - from Marks and Spencer.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02- Sharon looks wonderful.
0:41:02 > 0:41:06- We've transformed it - so she can wear it in the day.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08- I like the colour.
0:41:08 > 0:41:13- This navy skirt has been teamed - with a classic double-breasted coat.
0:41:13 > 0:41:17- There's a cashmere polo neck top, - the skirt and boots.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20- This is ideal - for the end of the week.
0:41:20 > 0:41:25- You can meet friends after shopping - and enjoy a drink at 5.00pm.
0:41:25 > 0:41:29- This outfit would be perfect - for that kind of day.
0:41:29 > 0:41:34- Let's call in Sioned who was - the inspiration behind this item.
0:41:35 > 0:41:39- I'm sure many would have asked - the same question as Sioned.
0:41:39 > 0:41:43- She wanted to know how to wear - this skirt after her party.
0:41:43 > 0:41:45- She didn't know what to do!
0:41:45 > 0:41:50- We've kept it simple - and opted for an adjustable top.
0:41:51 > 0:41:56- It's a silver skirt so be very - careful with how you accessorize it.
0:41:57 > 0:41:59- Sioned can change quickly.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01- I'll take the bag from you.
0:42:01 > 0:42:05- It's a simple change - and we'll team it with a camel coat.
0:42:05 > 0:42:08- Has Huw answered your question, - Sioned?
0:42:08 > 0:42:09- Oh, it's stuck!
0:42:09 > 0:42:10- Oh, it's stuck!- - Sioned's stuck.
0:42:10 > 0:42:16- These cheap models aren't a patch - on Christine and Margaret.
0:42:16 > 0:42:17- It's hard work.
0:42:17 > 0:42:21- It's good to save a few pennies - at Christmas.
0:42:21 > 0:42:24- This is another simple look.
0:42:24 > 0:42:28- You can use the same bag - as we had earlier...
0:42:28 > 0:42:30- ..and it transforms it again.
0:42:30 > 0:42:35- It looks great despite the coat - being different to the silver skirt.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39- Sequined items will reflect - the colour that you're wearing.
0:42:39 > 0:42:45- If you have a blue top, - it will be reflected in the sequins.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47- The same is true here.
0:42:47 > 0:42:51- Sioned looks like a film star, - just like Patricia.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54- Can we see all three ladies?
0:42:54 > 0:42:58- Patricia's here but I think - Sharon's hit the Irish cream!
0:42:58 > 0:43:02- She found the bottles - we had behind the counter.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04- Oh, here she comes.
0:43:04 > 0:43:07- She can't walk straight but is back.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10- There's still some of the drink - on your lips.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12- It's gone.
0:43:12 > 0:43:14- Our thanks to all three of you.
0:43:14 > 0:43:20- Huw has answered Sioned's question - about how to wear her skirt.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25- Everyone looked wonderful.
