This is a word that some of us embrace and some of us fear. I'd like to think I fall somewhere in between, but I'm not so sure. I enjoy the idea of change as it can lead to something new and exiting, but I love routine and knowing what I need to do and… Continue reading Change

Avocado Sauce
I know the avocado train has been well and truly exhausted, but as a massive avocado fan myself I had never tried avocado sauce before and I realised I was missing out! This is the easiest sauce to make and perfect accompaniment for a variety of dishes such as pasta, salads, potatoes, rice, literally anything.… Continue reading Avocado Sauce
The Progress of a Novice Gardener
I've discovered a new found passion and it's gardening. When we bought our house last July, amongst all the dust, walls being knocked down and fireplaces being created the window ledges were full of pots with seeds. I just couldn't wait to start growing my own vegetables and flowers, much to the delight of the… Continue reading The Progress of a Novice Gardener
5 things Friday
It's Friday, it's a bank holiday weekend and it's sunny - how could you want for anything more?

My first attempt at jam
I never thought the day would come where I would be brave enough to try to make jam, but here we are! Our lovely new neighbours gave us a huge bunch of rhubarb and I thought this is my chance to attempt to make jam. After scrolling through some recipes on BBC Good Food, I… Continue reading My first attempt at jam
Gardening advice wanted!
It's rather grey today isn't it? I do hope we have a good pour down of rain, as I didn't water my vegetables properly last night. I know, tut tut. As much as I love my job (especially as I have swifts constantly screeching past my window and buzzards circling), I would much rather be… Continue reading Gardening advice wanted!
Where to start…
Well to begin with we spent the majority of the weekend in our new house! I'm sure everyone thinks this when they buy their first house, but I just love it so much. On Friday I raced home from work to see my handsome one and Bella at our cottage; after rapidly shoving some food… Continue reading Where to start…
We’ve completed!
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! There have been tears, anger, stress and times we thought we would lose the house, but thankfully it all worked out in the end. Unfortunately, we both have to work today so I am itching for 5.30pm to arrive and I know you shouldn't wish your life away but I'm just… Continue reading We’ve completed!
