One of my favourite ‘easy to make but looks and tastes more intricate’ dinners You need: chicken breasts, Pancetta bacon (or regular works too), Philadelphia. cocktail sticks, and whatever veg you want to go with your dindins. Pre heat your cooker to 180-190 degrees. Slice each chicken breast down the centre with a sharp knife. Spoon about three heaped…
Previous wedding story posts: the week before and the morning of and the ceremony. As we came out of the church it was drizzling ever so slightly, but it didn’t dampen the mood at all (ba-boom cha! haha) and stopped after about 5 minutes. We just kind of stood in a daze with people taking pictures and congratulating us, till…
I wanted to have another weddingy post up now but I have the flu, and this is the first time I’ve turned my laptop on for a few days,and already its made my headache worse so its going right back off again in a minute! Doctor cant give me anything to help as I am pregnant, and the only…
Previous wedding story posts: the week before and the morning of. I cried a little walking down the aisle. I didn’t expect to but embarrassingly I couldn’t help it, although I am not a crier generally. I think it was the fact that ALL the people who knew and loved were in one place (staring at me) and was hugely…
Maternity dress: topshop (via ebay) bump at 16 weeks ish (the pictures are a few weeks old as I’m 18 weeks now) Boots: Barratts (they were in the sale but I cant find them online anymore!) Nails: Revlon ruby red matte. I adore these boots and the faux fur lining goes all the way to the toes…
I woke up at 5am. I didn’t want to be awake at 5am but there was nothing I could do to make myself fall asleep again, my brain was whirring with thoughts, I think I eventually drifted off again by about 6.30 but was up properly by 7.30 anyway! Emily and I had breakfast (a proper full English with cereal…
Do people really care about other peoples Christmases? I’m never sure but I am going to shove a few pictures and words together for posterity anyway. My Christmas was a relaxed affair, the 24th was spent baking and cooking (truffles, brownies, pie filling etc!) Then this year my mum and I went to a friends for Christmas day…
And in case you eve wondered what happened to the kids from the movies… wonder no more!
So now I’ve finished work for Christmas (I worked Saturday) I can relax and feel a bit more festive (although I am the manager ‘on call’ for my hotel and 5 others so fingers crossed for me that I don’t get a call, or worse have to go and help someone out with something drastic!) and my mum arrives for…
I turned 16 weeks pregnant this week (I still can’t get used to the whole x weeks and x days thing, maybe I will by the time the avocado arrives) so thought I would update you on my experience so far, I can also look back at this myself when I want to remember what it was like! (or compare…
I must admit, I have a shedloads of apps, but actually only use a handful. I know not everyone has an iphone, or even a smart phone (if you’re my mum you cant even cope with a phone with no buttons and get shocked when a phone has a colour screen!) but I thought i’d share my favourites with you…
