Nasty ear infection :(

I had my midwife appointment yesterday. I also had a doctors appointment. Because I'm ill. Again.

This time I have a nasty ear infection, and a clogged sinus. This has meant that my face felt like it was being ripped open with jagged glass for the last 3-4 days, while also feeling like someone was hammering a blunt pencil into my ear. I was actually reduced to tears by the pain on 3 occasions. I haven't been able to sleep and I have taken way more paracetamol than I should have. All this just as I came out of yet another lot of D&V (3rd this preg).

Anyway.... it's all good news now. I have antibiotics for my ear, and my latest water infection, and I am starting to feel better (if still deaf and dizzy). Smudge is doing fine - I got to hear baby's heart beat again - and today is only 9 weeks to my due date :o)

My only real concern today is trying to occupy Jack & Tom who seem to be suffering from cabin fever but it's seriously icy out there and I have no sence of balance right now. There is no way I can handle two crazy boys, out on the ice, while unsteady on my on my feet, AND pregnant..... Gonna be a hard day!

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
