Sharing a video on her TikTok page, 'christmasdisneycrazylady,' she revealed to her 175.8k followers the latest additions to her Christmas food stash.
Explaining her approach, she said she shops throughout the year, buying a few items each week to spread the cost and ensure she's ready by December.
One of the items added to her cupboard this week was apple sauce, which she admits might be a bit unusual.
She explained that although it's traditionally paired with pork, she loves having it with turkey on her Christmas dinner.

In fact, apple sauce is just one of her favourite condiments for the big meal, alongside cranberry and mint sauce.
She added that Christmas is the only time of year she buys it, making it a must-have for her festive preparations.
Next on her list was a large jar of chunky Branston pickle, another item she only purchases during the holiday season.
She said it's perfect for Boxing Day or Christmas Eve when enjoying picky bits and leftovers, making it a staple for her Christmas cupboard.

World's sexiest volleyball star Kayla Simmons goes topless on beach as fans say ‘never been jealous of ocean until now'
KAYLA SIMMONS went topless and swam near sharks in her most Jaws-dropping photoshoot ever. The former university volleyball star modestly claimed she was just "playing mermaids". 19 Kayla Simmons lapped up both the sun and Instagram likes as fans foamed over 'one of her hottest' photoshoots Credit: 19 The fearless star went for a plucky dip Credit: 19 Fans believe Kayla was some-fin special Credit: 19 Admirers were awed by her boldness Credit: But her 1million Instagram followers believe it was more about thrills than gills as she dazzled on the beach and underwater. One admirer reflected: "Never been jealous of the ocean until now." Another fan claimed the social media sensation had "a smile to launch a thousand ships". Kayla's nautical but nice snaps included her lying on the sand in a bikini that was minus its upper half. She was also seen in a short video wading into the sea, still without a top. And once she plunged under, marine lovers might reckon some of the exotic sealife she was snapped with - including huge fish - was almost as impressive as Kayla's free-spirited dip. But woe betide anyone whispering that to her army of enthusiasts. One fan raved: "One of your hottest sets... so stunning Kayla!" Another wrote: "Everything about this is incredible." A third simply stated: "Most beautiful woman in the world." Kayla Simmons films herself in sauna wearing just a tiny bikini as 'world's sexiest volleyball player' sends fans wild And a fourth posted: "I love your natural beauty." A few observers did worry about what looked like sharks just metres away - with Kayla even seen swimming towards one such beast. And when she was asked where the snaps were taken, she replied: "First photo is Hawaii." That Pacific island state is home to around 40 types of shark - but nearly all those varieties are safe to humans, with bite attacks very rare. So Kayla probably felt safe beneath the surface being... "snapped". The part-time mermaid also proved she's a full-time marvel on Instagram - as she rapidly clocked up thousands of likes for her assortment of aquatic pics. A glimpse into her life on dry land! 19 Kayla played volleyball for Marshall University - although usually not in this outfit Credit: Instagram / Kaylasimmmons 19 She has built up a huge following on social media 19 On TikTok and Instagram she has a combined 1.8m following Credit: Instagram @kaylasimmmons 19 Kayla still plays volleyball occasionally and pulled off a trick shot with her bum Credit: INSTAGRAM @kaylasimmmons @outofsystemofficial 19 Kayla revealed how she keeps her peachy rear in perfect shape Credit: Instagram/kaylasimmmons 19 It's not just volleyball Kayla can play as she impressed at Top Golf 19 She regularly wows her fans with bikini snaps Credit: Instagram 19 Kayla 'gave a new meaning to sideboob' in this upload Credit: Instagram/Kaylasimmons 19 Kayla loves the beach Credit: Instagram @kaylasimmmons 19 Kayla gave this dog an eyeful Credit: Instagram @kaylasimmmons 19 And this little kitten didn't know where to look Credit: Instagram/kaylasimmmons 19 Kayla shared a collection of steamy photos to her Instagram from her summer trip around Europe Credit: Instagram/Kayla Simmons 19 Kayla lives a glamorous life Credit: Instagram/Kayla Simmons 19 She shared this seriously busty snap on Instagram Credit: Instagram @kaylasimmmons

Singer and TikTok star Addison Rae changes her stage name
Addison Rae is now going by a new stage name. The singer and TikTok star, who just released her self-titled debut album on June 6, has dropped the name 'Rae' from her professional moniker and is now known simply as Addison. 'I said it in an interview, I was just like, 'Oh, I think I've grown past being called Addison Rae,'' Addison told host Quenlin Blackwell during a June 8 appearance on Blackwell's 'Feeding Starving Celebrities' YouTube series. 'Then the album being named 'Addison' kind of was a tie-in for that,' she added. The 'Diet Pepsi' singer, 24, said there is also a more practical reason behind her decision. 'I just am tired of also signing Addison Rae. It's really long. I just would rather sign Addison,' she said, laughing. 'And then I was like, 'Yeah, it just makes more sense because, like, it's going back to the roots really.'' Still, Addison, who was born Addison Rae Easterling, said she won't be upset if longtime friends and fans still think of her as Addison Rae. 'Whoever knows me as Addison Rae and knew me as Addison Rae will always know me as that,' she said. Addison joins a growing list of celebrities who have opted to tweak their professional names during the past year. Just last month, Angelina Jolie's 19-year-old daughter Shiloh Jolie — who'd already dropped her father Brad Pitt's surname from her own in 2024 — choreographed an original dance piece under the name Shi Joli. Former 'Teen Mom 2' star Kailyn Lowry's 15-year-old son, who was formerly known as Isaac Elliott Rivera, announced last week on his mom's 'Barely Famous' podcast that he was now going by his middle name, Elliott. Meanwhile, Malia Obama, the 27-year-old daughter of former President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama, has been using the professional name Malia Ann as a writer and director in Hollywood. Michelle Obama opened up about her older daughter dropping the Obama name professionally when she recently appeared on Kate and Oliver Hudson's 'Sibling Revelry' podcast. The former first lady said it was natural for young adults — especially those from famous families — to want to 'push away' from their family name at some point. 'You're trying to distinguish yourself,' she explained, adding, 'It is very important for my kids to feel like they've earned what they are getting in the world, and they don't want people to assume that they don't work hard, that they're just naturally handed things,' she added. ' 'They're very sensitive to that. They want to be their own people.' 'Malia, who started in film, and it being her first project, she took off her last name, and we were like, 'They're still going to know it's you, Malia,'' she added with a laugh. 'But we respected the fact that she's trying to make her way.'
