Wrinkles are beautiful

I remember a few years ago (eight, to be exact), when we were all turning thirty, a friend bemoaning the arrival of wrinkles. I hadn’t noticed any on her and certainly hadn’t been looking for them or worrying about them on myself. When I noticed my first few starting to …

Low GI – the vegetarian way

  Chris and I are trying to lose weight and get healthier and fitter and, in terms of diet, we’ve found aiming for a low- to medium-GI diet works well for us. We had both lapsed considerably over the summer and are trying to get back on track – both …

A week without internet?

Last year’s holiday – Rosemary has shorter hair, Eleanor has longer hair, and I’m a little bit thinner (I think!) We’re off on Sunday for a week’s holiday in France. And, as always, this means we’re working like very crazy megalomaniacs trying to get everything finished in time – including, …

There are some handy tips about adapting recipes to cater for the different tastes and …

Why aren’t you here?

I saw you this morning. I was walking home after taking Rosemary to school and handing Eleanor over to Mama. It was a lovely spring day and, though cold, I was feeling good and ready to face the world – or at least the computer. Then I glanced up toward …

A space of my own

Somehow, without planning it that way, we had ended up with me looking after the girls all day Saturday on most weekends. Chris takes Rosemary swimming on a Sunday and I look after Eleanor while they’re out (though she often sleeps most of that time) and then I look after …
