Ladybird Toenails
To herald what will hopefully soon be the onset of Spring I thought I’d go with little – well actually quite big when you think about it – Ladybirds on my toes for a while. I hope you like my ladybird toenails?

Is that the Spring that I See?
I don’t think anyone would deny that we’ve had a fairly awful winter so far this year. It hasn’t been cold yet, but it’s just been wet, windy and miserable. There does seem to be hope on the horizon though. There’s a brief respite in the stormy weather today, the wind has gone and it isn’t raining at...
Kathi Rolls
Another nice new recipe for us thanks to thespicery.com. This time it was courtesy of a free sample that came with my last monthly box for Kathi Rolls, also known as ‘Egg Rolls’ or ‘Frankies’. Usually when making a recipe for the first time I follow the instructions as close as possible to the letter...
The Return of Jobs
I may be an Apple Fan Boy but I’m not referring to the return of Steve Jobs, I’m actually talking about a TrainerRoad workout called ‘Jobs’. It’s one I tried on January 23rd and came away from it annoyed as I didn’t manage to complete it. In fact I came nowhere near. The workout only consists of...
Order in the Cutlery Drawers!
This may go down in history as the least interesting blog post ever, but I’ve just spent the morning clearing out the kitchen cutlery drawers and sorting things out so that they make more sense! I’m sure we aren’t the only ones to keep things that you just don’t need and for some reason much of...
Looking Forward to A Spicy Valentines Day!
It looks as though Anna and I could have a Spicy Valentines day this year!! We have to admit that we don’t usually do anything for Valentines Day simply because we can’t afford presents and bought cards are a rip off. We might sometimes make each other something but that’s about all. This year however Anna...
Work Induced Injuries and Over-Eating.
I’ve always said that ‘work’ isn’t good for you and once again I proved it yesterday by tweaking a muscle in my back whilst moving a carpet for someone. I’d been painting and decorating at their house and now had to move an old carpet out of the room so that a new one could be...
Singapore Noodles
We got to try out our latest pack of spices from thespicery.com yesterday, and once again we were impressed. What’s in the Box? The pack arrived last Friday and contained a whole host of spice sachets and recipe cards. In the little box was: A recipe kit for Singapore Noodles, along with a sachet of sauce...
Ynyslas Sea Wall
A couple more photos from our beach photo walk on Sunday. This time of the sea wall at Ynyslas. Kind of sums up the slightly bleak but still beautiful part of West Wales that we live in. It may not be to everyone’s taste but we like it here and especially like the drive from...
Ynyslas Groynes
Just some pretty pictures of the Groynes at Ynyslas from our beach photo walk on Sunday, I hope you like them. We should get out for photo-walks in the local area more really as it’s always nice to spend time outside and to get some good photos for the weblog in the process. It’s surprising...
