Sentimentality means everything THERE are some things of value that simply can’t be replicated in the short term, like generations in business, perfecting an art and working with jewels that take billions of years in the making. Purdeys Jewellers HRD Antwerp advanced diamond grader and designer, Michael Kearney said, “Purdeys Jewellers is a family business which has proudly been owned and established over three generations and with an emphasis on passion, perfection and love. In a consumer society where jewellery can be mistakenly regarded as a volume production commodity, Purdeys’ emphasis is on individuality, which transcends the generations to be admired by family and friends. “Outstanding quality and craftsmanship, along with the artistic and creative expression in each work, allows our jewellery to speak for itself, becoming a talking piece and representation of the relationship from which it was inspired.” The spirit of Christmas is truly alive at Purdeys Jewellers, as they are set to give away thousands of dollars worth of jewellery from their ‘Christmas Bon Bon’ gift tree again this year. From December 1 until Christmas Eve, every customer who spends $150 or more gets to choose a bon bon from the tree, with each bon bon containing a beautiful piece of jewellery, up to the value of $3,000. Michael said, “It really is a fun time for everyone in the store as customers choose their bon bon and discover their watch or jewellery prize.” This really is an offer not to miss at Purdeys Jewellers, 244 Wyndham Street, Shepparton. Phone the Shepparton store on 5821 4679 or visit the Benalla store at 61 Bridge Street, Benalla or phone 5762 6150.

DESPITE Apple products taking the world by storm, it’s not all that easy to find Apple stockists or service centres, especially in rural locations. Data Parts business owner, Adrian Jones is really excited to receive Apple’s recent approval to stock the Apple watch in Shepparton, just in time for Christmas. Adrian said, “We’re delighted to be Shepparton’s only stockist of the Apple watch and even more importantly the only authorised Apple Service Centre for miles around. What customers need to understand when they need help with an Apple product, if an unauthorised service takes place, the product automatically loses its warranty.”

There are designs and styles to suit any fashion and the Series 2 has the most advanced technology yet. With built-in GPS, water resistance to 50 metres, a dual-core processor, a display that’s twice as bright and watchOS 3.

BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE GIFTS TO SUIT ANY BUDGET… Focus Cards & Gifts sales assistant, Nikia Snow and business owner, Peter Dunbabin are enjoying the Christmas spirit. Photo: Alicia Niglia.
A virtual
treasure trove
By Nicholise Garner ATMOSPHERE is everything when it comes to feeling compelled enough to venture into a store and furthermore, to then go exploring. Compelled is how I felt when I visited Focus Cards & Gifts; a sheer treasure trove of gifts to suit any budget. In actual fact, I felt a little frustrated because I could see so many gifts that would be perfectly suited to my own family and friends, but I didn’t have time to play. I saw so many sentimental pieces, unique and interesting gifts, jewellery, candles and diaries to name a few. Focus Cards & Gifts, business owner, Peter Dunbabin said,
“We have inexpensive Kris Kringle gifts right through to some very precious and sentimental pieces. ‘Lost Shepparton’ books would appeal to anyone who’s ever had a history in Shepparton, Tattslotto Christmas packs for those who are difficult to buy for and a huge range of the very popular Willow Tree ornaments along with an excellent range of category specific Christmas cards.” Trust me when I say that Focus Cards & Gifts will have something in store to suit your Christmas list. Visit Focus Cards & Gifts at 181 Maude Street Mall, Shepparton, for friendly service and to get all of your Christmas shopping needs met.

“IT’S GOING TO BE A BIG CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR”… The Adviser journalist, Nicholise Garner was thrilled to interview Santa at Riverside Plaza. Santa said, “There’s a high demand on trampolines this year!” Photo: Alicia Niglia.
What Santa Claus had to say By Nicholise Garner I LOVE my job. I get to meet so many exciting people, but recently I got to interview someone super special! I got to interview Santa Claus!! We met at Riverside Plaza, in the special Christmas photography area. He looked so big and happy, bright and cheerful and had such a cheeky twinkle in his eye. Santa carried a sack full of surprises for the boys and girls and I was delighted to sit with him and have a good chat before he started meeting children who wanted to have their photos taken with him. Santa told me that it has been a really surprising Christmas for him this year, because there has been an unusually high number of requests for trampolines. I asked Santa how he manages to deliver big things like trampolines. Santa said,
“Christmas is a magical time of year and I use a little magic to help deliver the really large gifts to families.” I asked Santa if he had a big, healthy m e a l pl a n n e d b e for e h e ad i n g of f Christmas Eve and he said, “No, no, no, I have to be sure to leave room for all of the drinks and snacks that all of the lovely boys and girls leave out for me. The children also leave water for my reindeer and carrots which actually work to light up Rudolph’s nose for our journey and help us to find our way.” Santa has worked very closely with Dale Wright Portrait Maker over the past five years and loves seeing so many of the same children year after year. Santa will be available for photographs and saying hello to children at Riverside Plaza, 10am to 4pm every day until Christmas.

Fun and festive recipe
Christmas wreath pizza Makes enough for two 10-12 inch pizzas INGREDIENTS
Pizza dough: • 1 ½ cups of warm water • 1 package (2 ¼ tsps) of active dry yeast • 2 Tbsp of olive oil • 2 tsps of salt • 1 tsp of sugar
Pizza toppings: • Olive oil • Tomato sauce (smooth, or puréed) • Mozzarella cheese, grated • Parmesan cheese, grated • Feta cheese, crumbled
• Mushrooms, thinly sliced • Bell peppers, red and green, stems and seeds removed, thinly sliced • Italian sausage, cooked ahead and crumbled • Chopped
fresh basil • Pesto • Pepperoni, thinly sliced • Onions, thinly sliced • Ham, thinly sliced • Rocket
METHOD
Pizza Dough: 1. Pour 1 1/2 cups warm water into a large bowl; sprinkle with yeast and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. 2. Whisk sugar, oil, and salt into yeast mixture. Add flour and stir until a sticky dough forms. Transfer dough to an oiled bowl and brush top with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm, draft-free place until dough has doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. 3. Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface and gently knead 1 or 2 times before using. Pizza: 1. Once you have made the pizza dough, roll it out in a round pizza pan and use
a big, round cookie cutter to cut a hole in the centre of the pizza. 2. Spread the tomato sauce over the base and then sprinkle on the mushrooms, bell peppers, Italian sausage, pesto, pepperoni, onions and ham. (Hold onto some of the red pepper). 3. Top with mozzarella, parmesan and feta. 4. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. While the pizza is baking, cut slices of the remaining red pepper in strips and arrange them in the shape of a bow. Decorate the pizza with the bow made by red pepper, garnish with fresh rocket and cheese and enjoy.
