Experimental Monday: Spinach and Ricotta Cannelloni

I haven’t blogged the last couple of experimental Mondays – I went on a bit of a soup binge and I can report that roasted sweet potato soup is yummy. Last week I was feeling totally uninspired and cooked easy, familiar comfort food.
But fear not! During the week I got a craving for cannelloni and [...]

Updatey thing

It seems like lately all I do is apologise for not posting. Must get better.
Mum has been enjoying her visit so far. I think she’s feeling slightly at a loose end because she’s so far re-organised several cupboards and cleaned out my freezer. It’s all little jobs that needed doing, but the kind of thing [...]

Kitty antics

In less grumpy, whiny news…
Last night, the cats decided to show off just how crazy they can be for Mum. At first it was just Kate, wandering around look at the ceiling, jumping onto counters and uttering pathetic little meows.
Eventually Mum and I worked out that there was a bug up there, tormenting her by [...]

So that’s why I’ve been grouchy!

The sun is shining and the sky is blue for the first time in over three weeks. And suddenly my funk is gone – I’m feeling cheerful and hopeful even though my back is still quite painful.
Hmm.
I’d never considered myself to have seasonally-affected moods before. Turns out that I do, though. Damn.
In other news, Best [...]

Bleh

I have a migraine. There’s been a thunking headache for the last three days (tiredness, I suspect) so I toddled off to church as normal thinking it would just stay as a headache and started to feel nauseous during the sermon. Taken Migraleve (I’ll need to get Mum to bring some over in the summer) [...]

I’m seeing this Doctor Who-ish thing around

Annie woke me up by clawing the door again last night. Not impressed. At least I’ve worked out who it is now: she did it while I was doing my physio in my room yesterday afternoon and I opened the door just to see. And then I continued to ignore it once I knew which [...]

I must be insane

Today I drove to work. I must be insane.
This would be due to the snow (that is not *light* snow, damn it!), the blowing snow and the distinct lack of ploughing everywhere.
I thought the lack of ploughing was just where I lived, but the main roads were actually worse and I am trying to shut [...]

Silly kittens

Note to self: must make Kate and Annie icon.
I accidentally left the downstairs bathroom door open a few minutes ago. Pure oversight. The door is kept closed so that my little girls don’t cause too much havoc and mayhem.
A couple of minutes later I heard the familiar sound of kittens playing with the cord for [...]

I’ve updated the photo set with lots of photos of the girls taken over Christmas. They continue to be ridiculously cute.
