Halloumi, in that magical moment before it's time to turn.

Summer is on the way

I love this time of year. I think it's called an urchin cactus but every year I get at least one flower and it tells me that summer is on its way.

Ripstick gave us value for money

When our oldest boy was about 9 years old he out laid a huge amount of money for a thing called a RipStik which was a self propelling skateboard.

13 years later and after our youngest son using it like crazy, the toy finally gave up the ghost. But boy did we get value out of it.

Such an unexpected win.

Homemade minestrone!

How good is this! I bought a roast chicken the other week because Sylvia put it on the shopping list and sure we've had chicken breast for sandwiches and salads all week but the leftover bones and bits ended up being a stock this morning.

And then I thought to myself "what should I do with this stock?"

After finding a recipe for minestrone I spent a little while putting this together and I have fantastic ready to go lunch meals for a week or so.

I love cooking.
