Reading too much into things...

I know, I know, I'm over thinking again (got that out if the way before I start)

Jack has started asking me about God. Which is fine. Only I don't believe in God. I wish I did a lot of the time and I have studied with a few different christian groups but I haven't had that 'moment' where I felt it was true. Still... This isn't about me. Jack says he does believe and wants to know more. I guess all the literature I gathered will come in handy. I'll support him if he wants to be a Christian.

Meantime, Tom is wrapping himself up in a fluffy pink world filled with cakes, shiny things, and My Little Pony (and has been for a long time now) and I also find myself wondering if he will be more into guys than girls when he's older. This is also not a problem for me or his dad and we will support him in his life too.

Thankfully the only thing George is concerned with is his new (2nd) tooth.

My thoughts may amount to nothing. Jack may or may not find god. Tom may or may not be gay. And I guess It's no big deal anyway. But as a parent I can't help but wonder and worry about how others will treat my kids. Loving god is becoming less accepted - bible bashers considered odd. Being gay is more accepted now but people are still hated for it.

I want my kids to be themselves and know that no matter who they are their mum & dad will always love them... There is no 'no matter who they are' about it. We love them. Full stop. I hope they can live in a world that will do the same.

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
