Recently I’ve been cooking lunch instead of buying sandwiches at work partly to save money and partly to eat fresher foods. Eating fresh does make a difference and real foods have quite a different taste to those with additives and colourings. Also having to create different recipies each day is a way of discovering new [...]
This last weekend was pretty perfect! It started on Friday morning with a trip to the Medieval Fayre! Although it wasn’t totally what I expected, it was quite interesting going around all stalls looking at all the different crafts. The traders were dressed up and there was even a proper hog roast (with a full [...]
I am quite conscious of the fact that I haven’t been blogging very much recently. I can’t say that it’s really because I haven’t had the time because I’ve had some time (although perhaps a little less than usual).

Further to my Mince Pies post of yesterday, I am pleased to inform you that they are still all there!! This morning I woke up with Wisdom tooth pain which isn’t at all wonderful! However I have taken measures to reducing the pain which seem to be kicking in a bit now which is a [...]
I’ve got some mince pies on my desk for a celebration in a few days time and yet they are calling my name! Agonising … I shall do my very best to resist temptation. I’ll let you know the outcome tomorrow!!
I’m going to make my niece jealous! I’m having pad thai and beer for tea. Well, ok perhaps she won’t be jealous of the beer but I expect the pad thai might make her a little jealous!! Am out in the garden again. It’s so much nicer out here when the whether is good, plus [...]
