best friends or what?!!

no more than that, best friends and relatives, it jst too much lol!!
what am i talking bout?o.k there so much to write and i wanted to wait until i down-loaded the pictures from our camera bt i cnt im excited and im awake so i wanted to write this right nw.o.k good!!
theres quyite alot of relatives in my dads side of the family, he has three other siblings who each of 3 kids,and atually one has 6 of them.and its gooood because we all get on, i know that there are familys that dnt so i feel very lucky, and i know that some do all get on so i feel nicely nice to be one of them lol!!and considering that one brother lives in texas,one sister used to until a few yrs back live in nepal,and one of his sister lived in norway,and her kids still do..,i;d say we all do pretty dam good too get on lol!in particular though is one set of the sister brother combo and that would be the ex- nepal liuving ones lol, i remeber when we first started hanging out mre,when they came back for one of there long winded vists and we took out my cousin sarah braided hair(IT WAS THE START OF AN UNEASY FRIENDSHIP WITH HER OUT OF CONTROL HAIR)(ITS O.K NW THOUGHT THANKS TO THE JOYS OF STRAIGHTNERS AND T-GEL) and from then on that was it frienship for life lol.

i love my fmaily so much because we are rather old fahsioned and family is the shizzle of the bizzle,itmeans everything, my gran put this inot much practice and it has wathered since she left us all thos yrs ago, she used to get us all together at the huge house and for every sunday meals where she made the most trmendous feasts plus set up the beds,and lunch the next day,oh and us three(me,cousin s and sis) each woke to our sepcial ribena shots outside the door every moringin lol,bless her sole!! and then we allways went to a yrly jounrye usually london to see the circu and stay in the a hilton hotel,i t was great and im glad we had it because from there it gave us friendship an dlove between all of us which has forged so much strenght to get through so much stuff.
and cousin s has been my best friend and not jst cousin since they came back from nepal, we when everyone was nt in uni and growing old!!..., wnet on holidays otgether with her family and did so much stuff, and also s would come and stay with us for long weekends and we would have the best time talking into the wee hrs of the moring utnil we literally fell to sleep in mid convo. we can talk like friends laugh like idiots and jst be totally honest and free,sit and say nothing in quit without feel awkward and make total pricks of ourselves without worrying,she has seen me in many times of need and stuck by me and i hpe i can do the same for her.when she left fo uni we weened a bit on the seeing eacohter which was only to be expected bt yesterday the greates thing happened we pciked her up from the train station and shes here till monday.yes yes yes im lov in it!!
when she got here we bunged the pre-prepared lasagne in the oven and started with the chat that would keep flowing the whole weekend for sure!!then early moring we decided it was time for bed and i helped her lift her suitcase up to her room where she found my delivery.
using all my courage from the biting buggers in my family i snook one of them cupcakes out of the tin from the other day and hid it, it was one of the coffee ones because i new it is s's favourite flavour cake i nthe world,and i put it in a tin for her to find, and when we went upstairs she foudn it and said,'''''hhhhhh my favourite, can i eat it now'''' and it was great seeing the little smile smudge across her pretty face and she devoured my cupcake there standing on the spot. i think she had a dreamy nights sleep that night!!
today was jst as good,we talked for hrs once mre and then i got tot show her(ecause she patient with me and pretends to be interested in all my loves)LIKE FOOD BLOGGINGand she sat there letting me show her the DARING BAKERS blog roll and all other such EVENTS and the IS MY BLOG BURNING SITE it was great and she pretends to be interested so good!!
then we came to what we want totry making, a tradiotn is when she comes we alwyas bake something or another and this time we decide to take head of the daringness we had jst seen and we looked at the 'IT TIME TO MAKE DOUGHNNUTS-EVENT ROUND- UP.' and there is where we found 'tartlettes' krispy kreme valentines day doughntuts and thought o.k her man said they were betr than the origanal so where the hell could we go wrong with them,and after walking away from the screen twice we decided yes man lets go for it and do this thang lol!!and so to it....
you'll have to wait though im going to try and the picture first...i might be back in two mintues because i am simply woooohoooohoooing ovr the success we had and our thanks must go to that wonderful food blogga tartlette she tough us a great thing today and we shall most deffo be doing it again.

*reminder to self go thank her in person on her blog!!*

not impressed

its mothers day this weekend, and we have spent much time getting out of mum what her favourite meal is, this i thought would be easy, i cook for her sometimes daily i buy who her stuff so surely i should no what her fsvourite meal is..bt know my daughter duty fails me there.

i know she loves certian things, like mars bars,marzipan,liquaice,those cnadies with the fondant passing through the middle, cashew nuts, shortbread, vienesse whirls, and n could go on with so many mre foods she jst loves, but if i had to pick a favourite i think i would be quite off as she likes her food as do all my family, not in a bad way i mean they jst appreciate lovely food, so she always gives rave reviews when i cook something new or old, so this subject stunned me into a oh shite i want to do her meal on sunday and hw do i come out and ask her without her knowing. i did it though and got to a lamb roast and lemon mirangue pie, good choice mum and something i love to make. as it tunrs out why i dint jst say to her mum im cooking you a nice mal on sunday what do you want i dont know,because umm how did i expect her nt to see a roast cooking in the oven especially the way i cook with ingredients and stickiness stwen everwehre lol. ehehehe dnt start i clear up jst in my own time thankyou!!
bt it makes it mre special to keep it a kind of secret....
nw onto the nitty gritty im so angry at you people and your dam supermkarkets yet dnt hold me to that comment because i honestly dnt no what i would do without you rant!!
for yrs we have made our lemon pies from the green packets, what dnt you give me the eyes computer you should step out your box and try it it is the pie of pies when done with homemade pastry and mirangue. o.k i have never attemtped to make my own filling bt judging to the recent 'food blog DARING BAKERS chalenge'where others dint have much success i am nt yet willing to go there anyway, bt this one is excellent to us and it is a relied upon sourse of lemon pie and one we will stick to,haha or will we.......it was late at night and mum said 'off t the gym back later' ooooooh i thought lovel timeing to slip out with dad to the shops, the local shops dnt sell the packet(IM SURE ONE OF THEM USED TO BY THE WAY)bt they could be lsightly forgiven since they're only local shops and these things usually come at the big supermakets, bt anyway off we drove to the supermarket, and then it came WAM BAM CAZZAM. they have the greens custard mix, the starberry quick jel(my gosh fantastic stuff too will make a stawrberry flan soon me thinks!!)bt no lemon mirangue pie mix, OH -A -MY-A -GOSH, and by this time dad had gotten to his level of being a man like him and saying i need to go i cnt shop nomore, and even he seached the aisle, bt no no mix,so we went home emplty handed,which would have been mre accpetable to him apart from before getting to the baking ingredient aisle we had shopped and brought loads of other money spending stuff with no reward of the lemon mix. so nw im upset and worried. i ave since looked online and they seel it at the big tesco a few miles away bt that mean getting there befroe sunday jst for this mix, which yes we dshould do she's my mum bt its getting my dads ass into come on off the chair we mst once again step into a food shop no matter hw much you hate it faze!!oh this will be fun!!

To prepare for the fight ahead i will look at this photo of our gsarden swing in the sunshine,get bit dperessed that its too cold to sit in it nw, then this brings anger haha there we have it the strength to lift dad off his bum to take me to make mothers day a great one!!

for ages it as been a dream of mine!!

down the road from us there is a house n the corner that has come up for sale..its a cute little thing, right on the cornerand it lks mre cottagie than others in the area nw s its nice.
my mum has lived in our vilage since she was allwed home from hosptial lol so she saw it when it was in a better state(a car drove into it and it fell in on one wall)it was fixed bt it was damaged, when she was a girl it was a tuck shop, selling all the sweets you get in the big jars, you know old fashoined liqurice and pear drops,gummy bears, strawberry laces and sherbets.(there is actually one opned up in a nearyb village and its amazingly popular like stepping back in time with these bag and measures and wall to floor old sweet its great!!) this got me and mum on to talking, which we always do about our dream.
since forever we have always wanted to open up a little place like a cafe/deli or something like that,when kamie oliver comes on tele we alays make some commet or other on why he hasnt bought us a place yet like he did for that guy in one of his series'.
we got so excited and didnt hold back lol!!we planned everything from where we would have seating like in a starbucks alone one side of the wall where the window was,and how we would sell seasonal stuff,opening at breakfast time to sell waffles and baps and those indiviudal packed cereal, fruit salads, smoothies,and as we got mre popular lots mre things like pancakes and stuff with seasonal produce, eahc week we would have a theme or a jst things celebrated whats in season at that point, like stawberry week, with starberry ice cream,cakes, muffins and compots, then easter weeek,and then on to people suggesting what they want to be our main them for the week from warming stews to usa week and chocolate lovers weeks all these things so unrealistic but in our fluttery hearts, then in the summer we would clear all the counters out and seel ice-creams and mre light fruit stuff with baguettes and pasta,salads and things, then in winter warming hotpots and pasties and things, there would always be pastries and cake on sale and sweets and stuff too, it was also about getting people to enjoy food and look after themselves...my mum used to work at the juniors shchool in our area and its such an issue where the kiddies either cnt afford,dnt have time or the effort made for them to eat good stuff or at all so it also came into our minds about needin to help there to by making good food and deals and stuff.
the place also comes with a patio area so we would open that up in summer.
and then as things came on we would get our own little van and deliver baguettes an bread and meals and stuff to people that cnt get up the hill to us,like in france where the bread man as we call him comes round the cmaplsite each day ringing his bell.

you see where our minds go when we let them,we got so excited it was as if we were doing it lol...its sad to come back to earth.

we have always wanted to do this though,in the uk or france or anywhere. we both know it will infact nvr happen, nt jst in the sense that mmm maybe in the future, no we wnt be doing it, we could nvr afford to go at it like we would need,and in our area people arent really focused on that lol,sometimes mre focused on driving the cars into these places!!
bt we can dream, jst like we do about moving abroad, or moving to a lovely place in the country.
its nice to dream isnt it!!..

little things....

it is now a full 24hrs since i finished icing te fish cakes,and they have all gone!!yes a full 22 batch of cupcakes eaten by my family,im sure its compliments in some ways because if they were shit they wouldnt get eaten right,buuuuut my family and sugary cakie things are jst a match made in heaven so they would get eaten if they were infact only bogstandard, bt i try to stay thinking on the good side.

today it was grand designs revisited, last yr me and mum sat down and watched one where this couple moved to the most beautiful part of italy and built a house,basically all by themselves with help from family and friends and produced the most wonderful place,like when i think in my mind of peaceful, amazing magical places this is what kind of thing would pop into my head,a lovely garden,tiles,limestone floors, brilliant whit bricks, archways made of stone,cool crips rroms with a splash of italy and sunshine and a plunge pool to boot,it really was wonderful,and then tonight it was revisited three yrs later,nw mr mcloud the present of the show doesnt hide his love fro some projects and his sure doubt of others!!bt i htink from his very first visti to this place he loved it and you could see his joy when he went back to see it,they have finished and they seemed really happy. it was so nice to see two people doing something so wonderful,working together and being together like that to prouduce something like that through sheer hard graft,and to see all there friends and family rally round them,some people dnt have that and i know some people do bt it makes you miss things wondering about all the things others have and how it makes there lives jst that bit bttr!!and also what we taake for granted!!

i did manage to swipe some cupcakes and take a picture of them,bt havent maged to put them on here yet,and also why does every picture i take make the huge light on the subject so you cnt see any detail jst the flash thing,i cnt work it out,its a digital camera bt maybe you have to have one of those brilliant proffessional camera like the good foodie bloggers have to take good photos..darn.

this is such a no point post bt hey arent they all enjoy noone!!

i was so scared!!

jst as i was getting ready for my cupcake task, a rumble shoook our house like nothing i hvae evr experience, it knocked stuff off shelves for goodness sakes, i yelped and heard dad jump out of bed and i ran to there room, i was petrified my heart was beating and i think i had a mini panic attack,dad was good though he hugged me saying its o.k its o.k(ITS NT OFTEN I LET MY DAD HUG ME,DRRR ME TO OLD FOR THAT STUFF LOL)whilst mum sat up saying what was that is everything o.k,she cnt sleep through the shouters outside the door yet she can think a earthqake is dad snoring!!
i have never experience an earthqauke no matter hw mini so this was an experience all right, i think i was also scared as i do get about our current state of the planet, that it might be a bomb or seomthing!!i know i know unlikely maybe bt these things come into your head when you crapping yourself!!and here in the uk i know we dnt get any earthqauke happening like in other countries and thoriiughly feel for them, hw do you all manage it i was a wimp at something that probably wasnt even on the rictor scale!!

cupacakes at dawn!!

o.k not dawn bt 1am is close enough and by the time i go back down-stairs and ice them it will be dawn im sure!! i saw on the 'is my blog burning' site an event or two on cupcakes, now some have added ingredients that must be added and some are simply your own cupcake, nw the ones i chose to make are nothing spectacualr as such. bt when tasted and judging by how often i get asked to mkae them they are. and to be honest you cnt beat good honest simply pimple bobs your uncle back to the old days do it yourself butterfly cakes.

my first task is to go and see if i am in time to enter it in this months event, i am always late and feel so bad later posting on here when i havent go it into the main page of events!!

back to the cake. as i was saying it isnt a mix of this or a dash of that or anything lovely caramel added,(which by the way i am not saying these new cakes i awe at every day are bad,i think im simply jealous i cnt come up with a good one!!) bt these have been a firm favouritein our family,though we are boring buggers. anohter reason why it is so hard to enter the events i see around the cyer space,because we are too scared to try new things,when i do stuff it unfer their noses they love it bt actually get it ..oh no there wimps,wimps wimps...
i remember being with gran so much when i was little round at her and grandads house all the time!! from when i can rememebr grnada was ill, he had a brain tumour and was left a different man when he came out of hospital,so he sat watching his t.v and pndering on the new world a dreadful illness had brought him into, and me and my sister and later brother when he was out his high chair lol, baked in the kitchen, its a small kitchen and all of us in there fit perfectly when lined up against the one worktop side by side,passing the flour to measure from the wale scales,and then arguing ovr who stired it, it weird hw you argue ovr things like that,usually the main arugmetn was who weighed the ingredients and then got to stir because each were as facinated as the other so we hd to take it in turs each time,often resulting in one stir each,yes this way took lots of time bt there was no longer a dough fight between us...!!

we made lots of things and seemed to do it all the time, as soon as we entered her door it was 'graaaaaaaan can we make cakes today' and the women always managed to have every single ingredient we needed in her cupbaord times two jst in case of mistakes lol!! gran of course was in charge of the oven and constantly had to remind us that putting our noses up against the glass door was not like putting it againts the window outside as this nasty bugger burnt the nostril off if we tried it!!
the one thing i can always remeber though was butterfly cakes, fairy cakes or any kind of single mini cupcakes, of all varieties, sometimes choc chip,iced,jammed,nutted,fruited, oh the endless poissiblilites with a cupcake,and the good thing with these mini delights is that you can have a different added extra in each haha, MEGGA CHILDS HAPPY HOUR EH!!
the one that was always a favourite is the butterfly cake, oh my these cute little creatures, from the batter half gone by the times me and my ssiter had finsihed spooning one into the paper-case and one into the trough..then the watching the oven(no nose burning included) then the timer that always went on and was exciting because it went ping!!then to the endless hours(so it seemed)of waiting for them to cool,to finally being able to make the buttercream and again half eaten by me and sis!!to gran guiding our hands with the knife(because kids should always be supervised with sharp objects) in a circle to make the whoole in the middle, to cutting the cut out piece in half to form the pretty wings, to filling the whole, to putting the wings delicatly on top squidging slightly for full effect..to sometimes geting angry when you drop a wing in the wrong place and it gets all messed up, to then ending up with a wonderful plate of butterfly cakes,and later an empty one!!what....!!

infact for my mums 40th(yes mother the world no longer believe you twenty)me and gran did a tiered fairy cake extrevanganza lol!!where we got a wedding cake stand idea,made of foil wrapeed cake bean tins for the stnads!!(blue peter eat your heart out)and then the silver cake boards and millions of butterfly cake all tierd to the top where there was one traditional fondant iced cake!!oh mum loved it and we were so proud,and now almost a decade later these tiered fariy cake stands are quite the trend(gran we so did it before anynone)

and now cupcakes are a must in our house on the favourite list, for some awful reason i have gotten into only making them every time we go to our fmaily places on the beach in wales, its a tradiotoin to mkae a big batch for the journey to go with my grans tradition of bacon butties,(and of course sam tradiotn of still needing a macdonals with a whisper in my ear as i got to the toilet 'get me a mclfurry pleaaadse kate' i love him so i do and his smile is all to perfect to ignore when i hand it to him without dad being aware(we have this art down!!)so tonight i thought hey mums on lnet so she cnt have the choc biscuits and bars we keep having to buy for my teenage,thereofre hungry brother and its mothers day very soon so lets start the loving mummyness and jst because it was 1am and wanted to bake my little heart out,
i made a batch of mixed butterfly cakes, a few coffee flavoured, a few choc,and a few plain yet glrious vanilla faloured,and later they will be filled with buttercream of course,oh and coffe flavoured buttercream for the coffe ones!!then when they wake up and slob around getting ready for work they can see these little buuuuties and hopefull feel a bit bettr,or it will make there days go longer coz they want cupcakes hmmm..!!
love you family!!

i tried it!!

finally i got the courage, actually twofold courage.guess what i did come on bring it on you'll nevr get it!!..

firslty i attempted at a current food blog avent haha goooooooo me!!o.k you got me it was infact a event that had been and gone,bt i still did it, and the other bit was that i did it with a thing i fear mst, yeast,yes yeast, as i read through the event round-up it seems i am nt alonein this one, bt after using it from the first hit when i mixed it lovingly into its snuggly warm milk to get it juices kicking until it went a bit gloops as i poured it into the base mix and then the smell as it mixed into the breaded recipe oh oh oh i nw love the stuff,and have already put it on mums list to get me mre.(allthought my mum is as me and dad have discoverd quite the proffessional ofsomehow nt seeing anything on the shopping list that isnt written in her scrawl..hmm how odd)

o.k nw i've come back down to earth from my yes i did something courages yesterday i mst admit in some ways as in they came out fine,rose fine, cooked fine, didnt burn,overcook or ruin in any way,and the cinamon and sugar coating worked fine and the smell from that ooh yes good stuff too!!yes that allworked fine,bt if you were looking for a success in the sense of did i make a doughnut, mm deabeatable, oh and also i cnt spell so telling you bout it will prove difficult bare me with me mr blog we cnt have it all u no!!

i suppose im nt a doughnut no-it-all so i cnt say whether they were a doughnut of sorts, for one i say i made doughtnuts and had courage i dint have enough to actually fry them, i know i know i felt like crying as i dipped in and out of the oil cupboard and i so wanted to,it was the fear of getting splashed scoulded,oh no if i got a good set of doughnuts so be the burns, it was the simple fact of i dnt have a thermoometer so had no idea what the oil temp would be so i wimped out, bt i will do it one day dnt you worry about that.
bt the fun was there, i love doing it all and yes they came out looking like bread rolls and they i thnk(i only smelled the hot things) would be mre able to a ham and butter sandwhihc type thing(therefore i left some plain)to let the fmaily decide, but i think they were doughnuts all the same,and i wnt have anyone piss on my parade.

and so simple too i dnt know why i was so worried, i think the time it says it takesto rise and looking at that on a piece of paper automatically fills one with dread of whats to come,bt i did it.
im nw wondering whether because of all the actually faults in the end whether if i had made a successful doughnut it would have been mre of an challenge for me, but i followed the recipe down to the T..AND so it mst have been a success,bt the recipe i had alos dint have apicture so i cnt compare.

bt i will try and take some pitures later and pst them.i would have loved to have got the courage sooner so i could have entered the event it would have been fun to have others mock my creations(lovingly of course)

and i must blog bout mothers cooking spree too and to smother her in te grace and awe of her cooking brilliance and abelness she oozes.hehe so many foodie words to use so little time!!

poo one mre thing!!

if i say somethin that isnt 'pc' for computer or blogging rules i am really sorry im nt quite with this lingo yet..haha you see i said lingo for one.so sorry bt it isnt intentional!!right a bit of home and away action is in oder i think.. hoping rick has had his hair cut so got to watch with much attention.loving the new neighbours onfive it seems to have got its zing back it went a bit full on,and nw it seesm to be getting back to the drama/comedy/sometimes a bit silly and weird gnenre i love so much.must get with the new times though i missed yesterdays and became fully aware i could not watch it today at twelve like i usually do wqhen i miss home and away...

i must rmemebr to post about my adventure from 1am last night until 6am this morning, making a valentines/motheres day cake which got some lovley remarks which mad eme feel quite nice, bt will tru to get a picture nw..hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh and carry on the hhhhhhhh i have jst gone down ready with the searched for cammera and the cake is gone, one day and a full sized 30cm cake is all gone.WO...hold the phone...sit up straight and drop the jaw, that is a conquest for even my fmaily,that was a fully fledged sponge with smattering of jam,smotherings of buttercream,follwoed by sugar rush to the head heaven thickness of fonants icing on a cake,decoared with precise brushtroke food coloring(red of course)hearts,all gone....GONE.

*SHOCKED THE GIRL AT HER LAPTOP SLOWLY PUTS DOWN THE COMPUTER IN ORDER TO CALM DOWN TO WATCH HOME AND AWAY AND LET THE SHOCK OF HER FOODAHOLIC CHEEK OF IT BECAUSE I CNT TAKE A PICTURE FAMILY*

they make no sense!!

if anyone does happen to read any of my blog, please it makes no sense, there are spelling mistakes one reason being because my keypad is being a bit tricky on me..and its all a lot of nonsense, bt it is for me,jst a place to ramble out nothing and do jst that talking nonsense with no meaning or sense..so my request would be if there are comment to be left, please dnt have a go at how crap it is and isnt worthy to be on the web, i am aware of this fact, bt it jst wanted to try this out, get stuff down sometimes..so thanks!!

already!!

imgine the scene, your on a slump, you enjoyed all the christmas baking has to offer,there is the bit of turkey being randombly chewed on straight from the fridge,and the odd extra xmas pudding being pulled out the cupbaord for some much needed 'i want xmas back already' comfort...and you tkae the first step into the local shop...there arent that many locals in the uk im sure you can guess which popular one it might be, and your gald because there is room to breath in here today,..because as we all no the shops are jammed round chrsimtas..and with the last of the buy one get one frees and the reduced for quick sale on all the chocolate santas and such abandoned delights , on the shelves it is nw pretty much bakc to nomral pace..which is maybe even slower as,come on hw can anyone be expected to move with half digested food still ,illing in there bellies from the xmas splurge.

then to my suprsie i look up to say a fond farewell to the last lindt choc raindear and maybe get him for my brother, my eyes do nt pear into his sad unwanted eyes but into the milky bar kids happy clappy one. a slap in the face is far from what occured,YOU ARE KIDDING, IT IS JST GONE CHRISTMADS AND NEW YRS AND THERE IS ALREADY EASTER EGGS ON THE SHELVES.my next thought come to gosh im do hpe chocolate keeps aswell as they say,and my thoughts after that goes back to the first, im shocked utterly shocked, i am sure it nvr happened this early before.

ovr the yrs it seems people need to plug the nxt celebratory event into our minds whilst we are still in the previous one as to make sure we dnt foget easter is in four months.


and now here we are in febuary and the eggs are in full swing and 'oh what fun it is to ride.'.ooh sh** watch- you see us slower paced peoplecan still remembr xmas-these eggs are fantastic though and i watch more people walk by tranfixed, yes we moan about what people do to seel there products,how they get them bigger and betttr every yr, i am nt one of these people, seeing the new 'extra special belguim truffle' or the mars selection, or quality street eggs is far from depressing its genious!! and nw there are newer things to go to the shop and jst walk round feeling like a freak bt nt caring about!!there the one thing that until last yr i was a slight blonde too though!!..i would ordinerily be ahsamed of my stupidness bt since i am writing to noone who cares....ls yr it finally dawned on me that creme eggs seemed to come and go at this time of yr, there is a sliht excuse for my behaviour as they do come in shops so early i nthe yr andleave late being sold off to get rid of them. but still i nvr got the cream eggs were infact jst about at easter. i found myself saddened by this even though it happened every yr knowing it made it..mre unpleasant. these little wonders have been around for so long, they were one of the eggs i always got... you no certian relatives get you the same eggs every yr, creme egg was my nxt door neighbours, aero from the parents, and something like a flake or terry's from the others, of course there came a point they gave up on getting different for the grnapkids and peeps because we were older and cleverer and clearly new that a snickers was infact 'granpa nt the same as a twix so why does my sister get that one even though i like this one better anyway egg'(kids are so weird its fab eh?!!)

the thing i will say is that creme eggs have mst certianly got smaller, there are ceritna things in life i can make excuses for this.....like when you are little ur paddling pool is clearly the ocean yet nw you cnt lie in it lenghways and then there the slides at the playground,when your smally they go on forever bt it doesnt have the same effect when you can litterally sit on it, with your ass on the top and your toes on the floor with parents saying 'dearest do you need us to call ur nurse to take you home' all around. bt my hands have not grown that much na-a-a i will nt accept it, they have got smaller the EGGS HAVE GOT SMALLER.and its not on. bt wedo have mre of a selection i guess, like the galaxy one, and the caramel,truffle,smarties and im sure much mre to come, so the have got there excuses, as my good friend say ' but why do i no suck out the middle of the creme egg out and get that suggary tingle comeing into my forhead at the sweetness of it all' then the pndering look at the egg and then..' and why do when i finsih spooning the rest of the middle out with my finger out and sitcking the whole shell of the choc egg in my mouth do i no have to open my mouth to chew it down,and get antoher rush ' more ponderin and then alook of shock comes on her face and she says in an almost lost girls voice ' i know why, listen its because there smaller, there smaller....i'm writing to them...im gone ..get me a pen...this is not on' and then i can nt bare the poor girls shock and am scared of PTS so i wip out another one(its by one get one free at the bottom..yes i know BECAUSE THERE SO SMALL THEY CAN DO THIS...,and she slips this one into her mouth and calms.as the pen goes away and the colour comes back into her cheeks and the wolrd is safe again..for now.

bt yes my dear friend is right i have checked the avidence i have got other sources,familymember friends to hold the egg in there hand and look too and yes we all agree, these like so many things days....mars bars,twixs,digestive biscuits,the amount you get in a crsip packet,the amount you get in a mutlipack of sweets or chocolate bag,oooh the sheer diabolickle amount you nw get in the mini eggs bags..i mean half the packet is spare, and many mre thing have got smaller in size.its isnt on bt what can you do..take full advantage of the buy one get one free is all there is too it im afraid!!

but it is coming and im anjoying it, i ave nt receive easter egg for a few yrs nw,confusing story one which is mre boring the this current topic so i will nt share it with you and destroy you lol!!

bt hmm mre baking could be required, like chocolate nests, those are a fmaily tradiotoin every year choc,cornflake nests with a mini egg on top must be made,oooh excitment..


last yrs choc nests...woohoo..gone within the hour!!

For no reason!

i read and read all these blogs on the internet, each one capturing me and making me want more and more,to start one for myslf. easch time i see click to make your own blog i chicken out. all the world wide bloggers know exactly waht to talk about and know exactly how to say it, plus somehow seem to lead such extrordinary lives. I have spent many a time thinking jst pretend, write some exciting crap, make life interesting, but no that jst wont do!! so i thought out of all the blogs i have save in my favourite bar, oh gosh its shocking the amount i have and my computer if it could speak would curely be groaning under the pressure of them all, bt i cnt stop adding them..'what if i nevr find them again or something happens to the internet' all these scary notions speed through me and i must keep clicking add. some time soon if nt already i am sure there will be a support group for weening off the blogging hemasphere, until then i must get my fix and so i must keep clicking...ooh back to the point, yes i may have put so many in my favourite bt i am sure i have nt even made a dent in the billions out there, and so who in the end would wander through cyber-space across mine, and if y some mistake they do who will continue to read and then after waking up the next day-keyboard inprinted face to boot- after falling asleep at the sight of my blog,who would continue to read it..none!!so why nt jst write random oring crap, i enjoy jst rambling about nothing,and it gives me something to do.


i have always wanted to write, always get jealous of writers who jst sit and write books, ideas nvr come to me i can nt get anything off the ground, so rambling is the only writing skill i have.


my blogs in favourite bar are i have to admit probalby all bt a few food blogs.cooking is my passion, i read blogs, i am subscrier to good food, thanks mum, and i buy olive when it comes out, if i wasnt such a stingy b**i would most certianyl uy them all, i spend my tim eon the internet scoping the wolrd of food blogs, looking at google images, at every food site i can find,and i have my own recipe binder on the good food website.

its hard because i would love to do what my fellow cooks do on here and,post every/most days aout the wonders they are cooking,seeing and all the restaraunts and markets,and all the foodie travels they all get up to,with amazing pictures of the concoctoins to boots...bt to my dismay i can not. a few reasons why, i simply am banned from the kitchen some days ecause mum gets bothered y me takin gon the cooking all the time,and they would all be clinically obese if i kept aking and doing what i sowish with my buttered fingers!! so i am rastioned to one baking adventure a week or sometimes shock horror one per two weeks, anohter reason is that as we all know the cost of food is going up and we already have a big family, two of which are men with appetites and we simply cnt afford to keep buying all those baking/cooking product,bummer!!there is also the fact when i cook my fellow residents here do nt quite appreciate my obsession so are nt interested in waiting until i photo the food before they have licked there plates and gone back to scrape the pan!! and the digital camera often is taken y one family member or aonther and so is nvr around to take the pictures. all in all you see my dilema. so i will jst write about it.haha yet anohter reason why noone will read this blog because no matter hw old we are we are always attracted y pictures,and scrolls of drivvle with no pictures like this,will jst nt fit the bill!!

bt this is my first evr post and it took lots of courage to do,being brave enough to post to noone is harder than one think you know!!

i did get two great pictures up, in this cold winter weather our heaters are on and we are snuggled in scarfes,dressing gownds and other fluffy garments. and this is where i would rather be at our little place by the sea oh how i miss it!!thought right now the weather on the beach, wind soaring up to our place on the edge hmmm ...mebbie nt!!
