What's going on the dinner table tonight? I want to know!
My stomach is better today but I don't have a huge appetite. I have some homemade veggie scrap stock to use up along with some white wine. That screams to me that I need...

It’s time to hop in the car and drive back 50 years to 1974! One thing I’ve noticed as we’re at the halfway point of the month: I’ve used a lot of these songs in other top ten lists. That shows you what a great year 1974 was for...

Rain was heavy overnight, falling as straight and true as stair rods. The sound was beautiful drifting in through the bedroom window, the curtains floating in and around. By dawn it slackened to a soft, steady susurration, fine...

MyLotter @pumpkinjam mentioned that she always wanted to go on a hot air balloon ride, but it didn’t work out so far. I’ve been lucky enough to go a couple of times, but if it’s any consolation to those who have never had the...

I got up today intending to go to the little Tesco, and I told my Mum I was. But then I looked at my weather app and saw that it was supposed to be raining at the time I was supposed to be going to the little Tesco, so I changed...

In last night's dream I dreamt that my Mum had given me some money to pay for taxis to go to art class. She was meant to give me 2 £10 notes. I went into my bedroom to count it, thinking she'd given me too much. I counted out 2...

Little One likes to sing, and sometimes when we’re on a car journey she’ll suggest that we sing a few songs, or even that we just listen to her singing. But then she’ll say ‘What shall I sing?’ and the big problem is that not one...

Fiacre Banks @sharonelton We drove along the coast and had a picnic lunch on the rocks in the sunshine. Then we drove down the coast and had coffee and buns. Then I took my new teeth out to clean them and almost dropped them down the toilet. If that had happened would I...
