Grumpy boy

It's been a hard week this week with one thing and another. Jack was in a huge grump all Monday. It wasn't his fault, but despite having so much fun at the weekend, the break in routine upset him. He's used to sleeping at certain times, and those times only, so the combination of long car rides through the day where he slept, and late nights, wasn't good. Something we'll have to be careful of in future.

Tuesday had him pretty much back to normal, but Wednesday was jab day! His 16 week inoculations. 3 of them! He hated it. He screamed. He bled!

And true to form all day Thursday he hated me. I'm the evil parent who lets people stick pins in him. He had smiles for daddy, and nanna, and even total strangers. Me? Well, he screamed and kicked and refused to eat unless he was starving.

Very hurtful!

Still, today I seem to be forgiven. I can't help but wonder if his tasty home made butternut squash dinners might have something to do with it!

Wedding List.... (OMG)

A new kitchen.... Really! We need one! So I've been saying to people that we'll want either B&Q or Ikea vouchers... Only I can't say which yet because I haven't choosen which one I like best: B&Q Oak Shaker style: ( on froogle ) ( on their site ) Ikea: Tildaholm BECAUSE... our kitchen is REALLY badly laid out, the storage is dropping to bits, the seal round the sink is black and festering, the oven hasn't worked for YEARS (the hob and grill are ok though), the seal on one of thef ridge doors has gone too, and the floor... half tiled, half bare concret! But now I have to choose which one I like best, and get the measurements sorted out, and then get the prices for what I can have in the space we've got... PHEW!

Recipe Review: Hairy Bikers liver & bacon with onions & gravy

I need a bit of comfort food at this time of year. I really love this recipe from The Hairy Bikers:  Liver and bacon with onions and gravy  and freely admit that I have whipped this from the BBC Food website. I follow the recipe (but sometimes chuck some mushrooms in too) and split it four ways at 11 pro points per serving. It's a classic, and even my 6 year old likes liver cooked like this - the 4 & 2 year olds need a little extra ketchup to convince them. The Hairy Bikers’ traditional liver and bacon makes a simple supper packed full of flavour and bursting with vitamins and minerals Ingredients 450g/1lb lambs’  liver , sliced and fully thawed if frozen 25g/1oz  butter 2 tbsp  sunflower oil 4 tbsp  plain flour 1  onion , halved lengthways and sliced 125g/4½oz rindless streaky  bacon  rashers, each cut into 4–5 pieces 1  beef stock  cube 500ml/18fl oz  jus t-boiled water 1–2 tsp tomato  ketchup salt and freshly ground  black pepper Preparation method Rinse the liver in a cola
