First trip away with out the kids!

We really enjoyed our anniversary :o)  


On the actual day we took the kids to Frankys & Bennys again since it went down so well on fathers day, and we ate FAR TOO MUCH (so there goes the diet for that day) but it was really nice!


Nice as that was though, the best part was the weekend... because we got to be by our selves fore a while - as in, we dumped the kids at my mums and bogged off for a night away in a hotel! Its the first time we've been without either kids or a bump since our honeymoon! And as much as we love them, it's nice to get away and be "us" and not just "their parents" even if its only for a night.

Now, I'm not going to go into details, but lets say my Ann Summers purchase worked out well ;op In fact the whole trip was 0so perfect that the only thing I would change would be having 2-3 nights instead of just 1!

I'm planning on taking him away for his 40th in October!

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
