Viable today!

Today Squiggle is 24 weeks! That means we are Viable! Naturally I don't want this baby to come just yet, another 14 - 18 weeks is fine. But it's nice to know that should something happen and we go into labour early, there is now a chance the Squiggle would live (and also that the medical people would TRY to save the wee baba).

Had a busy day today. Yesterday we had planned to do so much, but with having to get a new battery for the car and everything else we only did a fraction of it. So today we got up relatively early and made it into town for 10am (mainly because daddy cottoned on that it's Valentines day tomorrow.....) and did some stuff like buy some under-bed storage boxes, a few more bits for Jack's birthday, some thread for my sewing. Mark did his shopping. We had lunch at KFC. And then trawled round B&Q getting stuff to decorate Jack's big boy room with (blue and cream paint, Cars border). When we got back Jack went for his afternoon nap, and I passed out on the sofa for 3 hours!!!!!

It also means that daddy cooked tea! Yay! I'm having a pretty good day today!

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
