However, a police officer was at the property taking further details about the theft – and arrested her when she came around.
Mitigating, Gordon Stables said Miss Athersych had only drunk the amount she had because she had attended the funeral of her best friend's mother – who she regarded as a "second mum" – that day.
Recorder Felicity Davies told her she was lucky not to be spending Christmas in prison, before imposing a four-month jail term, suspended for 18 months.
Six months' supervision and a three-month curfew were also imposed.
