Earlier today my brain was not working properly and I could not get new photographs posted on my site. Duh! I was being a ditz! One roast chicken dinner later, and a complaint to my resident expert - it was discovered that I had my browser set to block pop ups [...]
Zoe: Wake up!
D: Wha?!!
Zoe: Wake up, let’s go to the mountains for a ramble. I’ve made the sandwiches, packed the water and emergency chocolate, let’s go!
D, rather unusually, managed to drag his weary arse out of the bed and drive me to the Mountains (Mourne).
Our plan was to go for a small walk [...]
Today is one of those days when I get nothing done. Every bone in my body hurts from the hike D and me went on yesterday. Each time I stand up to do something, I think, ‘this hurts too much’ and sit down again. Only thing I have managed so far [...]
On Saturday I was a little blue - partly due to Ireland’s failure in the rugby.
Not Much made me smile apart from the life and times of the King of Northern Ireland, and Moroccan spiced lamb shanks with a parsnip and potato mash. In fact it was a good food weekend with apple pie, [...]
I love days off work! My house is shining clean and pizza dough is made and rising in the airing cupboard.
I started a new knitting project today - socks made from Regia self-striping yarn. I finished knitting this scarf last night (still a few loose ends to tidy up) and, as promised ages ago, [...]
Once again I have overdone my sugar intake. I blame a work colleague bringing in a bag each of Maoam Stripes. I ate nearly a whole bag. I am truly disgusted with myself.
Did I ever mention that I am a shocking Neighbours fan? In my defence, it is the only soap [...]
I guess Tuesdays aren’t my favourite day. Who could love a day in which Exercises had to be done? I wake up filled full of dread, knowing that later on I will have to stretch, strain and exhaust myself. I hate exercise. It all seems so pointless.
Well, I guess that it’s [...]
One of the first things I thought of this morning was the ‘Selina’ pasta I made last week. And here is the recipe. It is no longer associated with Selina Scott on the Sainsburys site as no one can really remember who she was or what she did. The only thing I [...]
A whole week with nothing written! I am a shocker! You would think that after all that time I’d have some news for you all - sad to say, No. I’ve been enjoying having D home and spending quality time away from the computer.
The only misery in my perfect little life this week has [...]
