28th December.....

So no blogs for a while mainly as we have all had our heads down toilets with a tummy bug which has gone on and on!

However, I think we are all making a recovery and despite some measly helpings at Christmas Dinner, we are now beginning to feel better.

We even ventured out to some friends house last night and while we were there we got talking about things we dont like so here are some of my lists!

Things I dont like                                  Things my body Rejects

Cauliflower cheese                                Ice cream

toad in the hole                                      cheese

Yorkshire pudding                                 chocolate

Macaroni Cheese                                   Crisps

Sushi                                                        foods cooked in certain oils

Overcooked vegetables

large quantities of fish

I will have a think and continue this list!!

where in the world.......................

has the time gone too!!

Part of it is me just trying to settle as quickly as possible into a new job, desperate to look competent!!

Another thing is that i just am not doing very much "blog-worthy", I always need a "reason" to write so I know I am not boring the readers.

I love Christmas, I love the food, the presents, the lights, the snow, etc etc so it is quite hard for me living with a person who doesn't really "bother" much about it, it gets hard to keep motivated!!

I also think this is a time of year you should spend with your family but distance for us makes that not possible!  It doesn't stop you wishing differently though.

Already a barrel load of presents under the tree and i am studying every cook book I can find to make this a perfect Christmas.  Nathaniel is very excited about it all and hasn't asked too many questions, this time last year he was a Shepherd in his school Nativity, how proud we were of him in his school production!!

Well time for bed and to think of some better blogs  - I always think of really witty things when I am asleep!

Night everyone
