Jack's 5th Birthday

Half a decade!! How??

Aww, and he's so grown up so much of the time too. He's had a good birthday. First time he's been at school for one, and a Thursday too so we had Luke over in the morning before school. Trying to keep him calm and willing to actually GO to school was our primary goal :D

He got to open 3 presents before school, one from Mummy & Daddy, and one from each of his brothers. We explained he could have the rest after school when he had time to play with them. He was ok with that too! Very grown up!

After school we went for his birthday tea to Pizza Hut, then home for presents and cake. He loved his presents (mostly Skylanders related) and scoffed his cake before finally burning out half an hour after his normal bedtime.

He has his big party on Saturday, and Grandma is bringing his bike up too (weather permitting, it's supposed to SNOW!)

Hope he remembers his 5th birthday. Hope it's a good memory.

Love you Big Lad! Xxxx

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
