Bloomin' Instagram!

Forgive me for being away so long, I am a bad blogger I know but I am still here.  I completely blame my lack of posts & blog reading on Instagram.  At first I had Facebook & Twitter taking up all of my time, then Pinterest and now it's the little microblogging world of Instagram that seems to have stolen all my free time.  I do wish blogging was more phone/tablet friendly!

 

I will post more often, I promise :)

Pancake Day

Well hello, how are you?  I am a stranger in blogland lately.  But I miss my blog and reading yours too, so here I am again, hopefully not just passing through :)

Pancakes, what's not to love about 'em?  We've had a pancake party with some savoury ones with stew and some..... well lots, of sweet ones. I had one savoury one & two sweet ones which isn't so good seeing as I am supposed to be dieting!  But I do adore pancakes, good job it's only once a year and followed by Lent. 

This years favourite sweet toppings have been,

• lemon & sugar
• orange & sugar
• treacle
• nutella & strawberries
• nutella, banana & whipped cream (naughty but very nice)
• peanut butter & banana

I did take lots of photos of the pancakes consumed but I can't find the lead for the camera...whoops

Snow

Just when you thought it was safe to start thinking of spring, this happens...

Saturday 2pm

about an hour or so later....

Keeping all warm & cosy 

We treat ourselves to a takeaway once a month.  It should have been takeaway night last night but we were snowed in. Good job I am a bit of a food hoarder and managed to whip up a pizza out of the bits and bobs I had left in the fridge.  I used Asda pizza base mix, 54p makes enough for 2 large bases, a small jar of pasta sauce.  I had a little mozzerella & soubel gloucester left so grated them together, added some red onion, pepperoni, mushrooms and a little caramelised onion relish. It cost under £3 to make both pizzas. That is nearly a quarter of the price to buy and although I say so myself, they were tastier.

Yum!

Hope you are all keeping safe & warm x
