What would you like to find behind the doors/windows of your Advent Calendar 2023? 

Starting tomorrow, December 1st, you are invited to tell us what you hope for, with the caveat that, on the 1st Day, your wished for item should begin with A. We'll work our way through the alphabet until we reach the 26th, Boxing Day and the letter Z.  Huh
Hope that's clear?
Behind door number 1

Beautiful hand dyed Aran wool for my crochet projects
Door 1
An Amaryllis bulb to plant in a pot and watch growing through December.

EDIT My wish came true today - I bought an Amaryllis. Big Grin
An Attic Ladder as I now need to go to he top of the garden and retrieve a ladder and bring it in so I can ge into the attic for the crimbo decorations! Rolleyes
Practical door 1 would be Almond Extract as I've just finished my bottle making frangipane & apple tart and some fruit cakes.

Wishful Thinking door 1 would be an up to date aerial photo of our house and garden. I've got an old one from the 70's before we bought the house, a new one would be nice to compare. There is always Google satellite but it's not the same.
Door 2 has Bee keeping equipment behind it.
I don't want much...Beyonce'
I'd like to find Bird food behind the door - the little feathered friends are getting through it quickly at the moment!
A Blacksmihs forge would be nice, save me having to make one! Rolleyes
Door 2 - a bit late. A separate book room (library? ) for all those piles of paperbacks I seem to accumulate.
