I aint gonna lie. I feel pretty tired. But someday....

The best version of a recipe I have ever seen. By far tops any pretty recipe book or tv series

Business plans; here I come.

Boy o Boy, what a gosh darn brilliant film. The little boy saying goodbye to his mamma at the end in the hospital made me cry.. wasn't he a wonderful wee actor in the making?

A series of single meals rounded off with a sound "family" dinner

Despite a photographic series of lovely meals for one, today was such a beautiful summers day (as summery as a summers day in northern England can be) and the whole family so to speak was in the house.
So making the most of it I Baked some haddock, knocked out a pizza and rocket salad and we all sat in the low sun to enjoy. I will only be in this house for another 4 weeks and it is honest to say I will miss these girls a bunch as well as Millie the dog. But I have declared how I shall be visiting oft' to indulge in some 'family' time and to maintain the small front garden.
