Mmmmm school holidays!

After a hectic weekend at work and the mother of all migraines, its now half term and i need to keep the kids busy (for my own sanity). They had a lovely time this morning playing with some friends......don't think they broke anything, but there were a few spillages! And we grown ups had cake and a catch up, there is nothing like a good old natter with a girl friend! Not sure what tomorrow holds yet, depends on the weather but hoping to get out and about and maybe take some pics that don't have children in them! Thanks to Trina for letting me take a photo for herbs! Have a good'en all.

Last nights dinner!

I decided that i would try a new recipe last night and not having used puff pastry before thought that i would give it a blast. I changed the filling a little bit from the recipe so, its a chicken, leek and mushroom in a cheese sauce pie!I was very pleased with myself (sad i know) but i love trying new things, as i can get so bored with food. Marcus liked it so it was a hit as he is dead fussy! Will defo do it again!

HSMSHS; Crush

Not sure how many households have one of these, it is supposed to be a posher version of a pestle and mortar, and is (if you don't know) a Jamie Oliver Flavour Shaker! Handy little thing.

A little bit of play time......

Marcus was home from work yesterday afternoon which was nice, and with Henry in bed for his afternoon nap Amelia had lots of attention and fun.

Manic day today and am looking forward to a peaceful evening (hope im not tempting fate here!) a large glass of something nice, good food - Antony Worrel Thompson recipe, hope it turns out ok as i have not attempted it before. And finally looking forward to my pjs!
