What's in a (domain) name?

This is something I've been thinking about doing for AGES and so many other bloggers I read have already
done this.... committing to a Domain Name! So instead of being charliebeth.blogspot.com I could be charliebeth.com or something along those lines, but not actually that, it's already gone. I have some ideas for what it would actually be, and some prices offered already which are reasonable.

But it's a big step.

Am I ready for it?

I've been on this URL for over 10 years now and I admit I am a little scared of changing it in case everything goes horribly horribly wrong and I lose everything I've written for the last decade! I don't think I could stand that.

But on the other hand, having my own domain would be great! I get the impression that companies looking for bloggers to review their products and host giveaways are more interested in the people who have made that commitment and spent that money, it looks that bit more professional.

So I guess what I'm really asking of you all is your opinion. Should I go for it? I even have a poll on Facebook asking the same question. Leave me a comment, or answer the poll, or both if you like! I'd love to know what you think of it all.

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
