The dreaded question….
The dreaded question has now been asked - the one that I knew was coming but was dreading all the same: Mam, you know how I'm sensible and stuff and I'm almost grown up, well, I think I'm ready to walk home from school myself. Is that OK? Actually no, it's far from OK because I'm not ready for it myself yet.What I wanted to say was this: I like knowing that when I drop you off at breakfast you can't escape until I come and get you and then I bring you home so there's no danger of you getting lost / run over by a car / approached by strange people / attacked by a dog / … [Read more...]

Eating veggie for a week….
This is a bit of a back to front meal plan because I'm going to tell you what we ate last week instead of what we'll be eating this week.....Seeing as last week was National Vegetarian Week we decided to have a (mostly) veggie week which was great for me because it gave me a bit of an excuse to cook a few different things as I'm a bit stuck in a rut with our meals at the moment. I've got back into the habit of cooking the same old meals which is not only boring but it also makes me feel a bit bleugh about cooking so I'm more tempted to not stick to the week's plan.The veggie meals … [Read more...]
