Find Ancestors

I have just enjoyed THE most delicious Spaghetti Bolognaise served with slices of garlic and parmesan toasted ciabatta !........................... who needs caterers? ;-) :-D :-D

I have been 'fancying' it for days but hubby has either been out or didn't want it or the grandchildren were here but today I managed to have it.

I cooked the sauce a few weeks ago and froze it so it only took minutes to prepare. If I am cooking something like this I always cook a LOT and then freeze the rest in portions so I have about 6 meals for 2 in the freezer.

I find the flavours seem to develop in there and it is even nicer when you take it out and re-heat it ;-)

I must let it settle for an hour or so and then I will be off in search of chocolate ;-) :-D :-D

Its not until the 20th but we having friends over tomorrow as Tues is not a good day to have a late night!

And yes, it is the big 5:0 Got the caterers doing the food tomorrow so all we have to do is clean up

He's taking me to Brussels & Bruges in Sept to celebrate alone, cant go in August I am too busy.

JB was fed ginger tea by the boys who run his bistro at work. He said earlier he felt a lot better. He's going to the Friday club so he cant be that bad now....I suggested port and brandy when he gets there

Hope you have a lovely birthday Ginns <3 - Is this a 'biggy' one ? ;-) :-D

SO glad you are going to get that holiday Linds - don't let anything change it before Sunday and have a lovely time - you both deserve it !! <3

Ginns - is JB better now?

Mornin all~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi everyone
xx


quick visit

have been really busy the last few days, and rarely on the computer.

Have only had time to read back a few posts.

Hope all those feeling Yucky feel much better.

Dea ............. I take 12 or 14 pills (depends on the day) each morning, 4 after dinner, 1 at about 9 pm, and 6 at bedtime!


Our pharmacy has recently been advertising that they will package into daily doses.

I use a 7 day pill box for my morning meds. I set it up once a week, and then just tip them on to the counter and take them each day.


We're going away tomorrow (Friday) until August 26 ............ as you know, I'm taking OH to visit his sister, to celebrate the "biggie" he has next week.

We'll fly there tomorrow, stay a week, then take the trains home

One train will take us from her town to Jasper, then we'll transfer to The Canadian to get back down here.


2 hours to fly there ............... almost 4 days to get home!! :-D :-D


Home all goes well for the next 10 or so days


Try to behave :-D

Cold, sunny and very very very windy here today!

Gins hope JB feels better soon <3

Dea I had trouble with this site yesterday too it's getting worse :-|

We got our dinner about 20 minutes ago.

OH's check-up went ok back in 3 months as usual :-D

Cynthia all the here and there and this and that is exhausting isn't it ;-)

Glad you're feeling better today Dea............



Gins....you'll look after JB well........lots of TLC. Hope he feels better soon.



Have been on the go all day........again......... :-(


Nothing exciting just here and there and this and that!!! :-D :-D :-D :-D

Aw....poor JB, came home from today feeling really sick :-(

I've sent him to lay down and rest....he has a very stressful job and has been over doing things of late

Glad you took your meds Dea, hope you are feeling a bit better today <3

I didn't get on this morning, oh dear, missed the bacon ;-)
