Dobbing, Dabbing, Snowdrops and Quilts

In addition to the soup post today, I thought I would give a bit of an update on the kitchen, and other things. As you can see from the picture, there was some ‘dobbing’ and ‘dabbing’ going on today as DP and SIL to be lined the new part of the kitchen with...

Airbourne, Divi & progress

Yesterday morning, we set out to watch the Eastbourne Airbourne. It is 17 miles, but we allowed extra time as it would be busy. Several roads were shut for resurfacing and the traffic was horrendous. DP made one mistake by not parking in the park and ride, he wanted...

Rust, dust, concrete and bears

An Approved Food order

Oh dear, I've been tempted! Approved Food tempt me every day with mega cheap offers and this week I did an order. I spent £66.97, including delivery, which is quite a bit. We had some of the spelt spaghetti this evening with tomato sauce and Parmesan and a big bowl of...

Kitchen Plans

Edit: How extremely annoying. I posted this last night and Wordpress for some reason decided to chop it off right at the beginning, and I can't access the Revision copies either. So I've had to re-write what I could remember. Goodness knows what you thought I was up...
