It's Coming Back...

No chance of a lie in for me.
My wind chimes were banging together.
Downstairs for a cup of tea..↓↓


Listened to Sounds of the 60's....
My favorite song came on...
Turn it up up up Alexa↑↑↑
After I wrote out the shopping list,
Took a cup of tea up to a sleeping hubby.
As we are off to a Craft Event at the NEC tomorrow.
So shopping was being done today.
Once hubby and kids went to do the food shopping.
I made full use of a empty King Size Bed for an hour.
My Bake Off pack arrived...
 Now for coffee and read the latest Lidl mag for offers...↓↓
 When hubby came back,
It started to snow...
 Once its stopped.
Time for a ride out.... 
 Going to enjoy a walk about in here..↓
 Coffee time↓↓
 Newspaper and coffee↓
The snow is coming...⛄
 Gets back home....
Chop chop time.
Whips up....↓
 Pittas with beef, spinach, onions, black olives.
Then we watched countless episodes of
Bullseye from 1983 ↓
 They couldn't get rid of the star prize of the speed boat...
They were showing them until 7am tomorrow morning. We taped the rest, and finally torn ourselves from the television just after midnight.
Looked out of the window.....
The Beast From the East is back! ⛄☃

Thinking Too Hard

It's finally arrived!
*The Friday Feeling*
 Had the caffeine kick...↓
 Sorts out bills for the month.
Chased up non payers as well!
After all that maths...
Liquid refreshment is needed!
I have being doing a lot of thinking lately
(Too much time on my hands I think!)
Got through looking through some cooking mags for ideas for meals...
Watching House MD helped!
Got some ideas for chop chop...
The final result...

Asparagus, tomato and Mozzarella tarts.
 Yum yum...
Now to enjoy more of this Friday Feeling...

Shaking The Tail Feather

After not feeling too well for the last few days.
It was time to shake the tail feather.
First coffee of the day...
The apron goes on..
 I got the slow - cooker out.
Chop chop time.
Beef in Red Wine with melting onions.
Slow cooker was put on medium.
Now to get Kenny out for a quick play.
No room for him in the kitchen...
 Rolled it out and added it to the oven.
While everything was cooking.
A bit of light reading...
 Biscuits were ready..
 Then the main meal was ready to be dished up.
 Beef in Red Wine with Melting Onions
Time to move on with...
Looking forward to some Friday Feeling tomorrow....

When One Scratch, Puts Paid To That!

Welcome to a cold Hump of the Week.
Still feeling cold.
(Even wearing the hat)
Had a two hour lie-in to try and get rid of a headache I had....
Then I heard Stephen Hawking
  and
 Jim Bowen

 had died :( 
At least one of my favourite actors celebrated his  Birthday today :)
Sir Michael Caine is 85 years young \o/
I popped around to see my neighbour who has come out of hospital.
(He liked the card I made)
 I was going to do some baking,
But I will leave it for tomorrow...
I enjoyed more House MD
 
 
with some Lemsip.
It didn't help disc 5 having a scratch on it.
So I missed 2 out of 4 episodes,as they wouldn't play :(
Going to make more off↓↓
 While catching up with Bake Off (Stand Up To Cancer) from last night...
It will give me hope for my baking fun tomorrow with Kenny...

Shaking All Over

I wasn't quite feeling quite right.
I went back to bed,
Once everyone had left the house.
After a extra hour in bed,
I got up to enjoy something to perk me up..↓
I tidied up the Living room again.
I was feeling cold and had the shakes.
Wore yet another jumper.
Had a hot liquid lunch to try and warm up.
 Time to keep the brain warm...
With me wrapped up,
I did some more Loom flowers and
Watched more House MD.
I did some chop chop...
I made Cajun Spiced Chicken Rice
 That was so nice and filling.
However still feeling so cold.
Soon after,
I went to bed to try and keep warm.
Hubby didn't appreciate my cold hands.
I wonder why not?

Which One To Do?

Welcome to this wonderful Monday *Feeling*
Once everyone had left the house.
Coffee with a smile...
 Washing machine went on....
Had a little play with Henry..
Caught up on some reading....
✂ Cut out some nice recipes...↓
 After a liquid lunch....↓↓↓
 As it is Shakespeare Week,
To be or not to be...that is the question?
Do I do baking or crafting???? 
 Crafting while watching House MD *Wins*
 Now onto Season 6...
Getting the hang of making Flower looms now \o/
 Nice little hot stir fry to end the day with...
The other half is being frozen for next week.
Now to raid my wool stash....
