Birth of My Blog

At the moment I'm attempting to make my way down to Hastings (UK sea side town for those reading from far away places), but for some adverse reason there are train problems (yawn).... cancellations, and I'm somewhat stuck surrounded with the hundreds of frustrated huffing and tutting passengers.

But I'm going to seize the moment and make an attempt at starting my blog.... I've been meaning to start a blog for absolutely ages now, and so here I sit scribbling away with my Ikea pencil I found in the depths of my bag, on the back of a scrap of paper destined for the bin during my next monthly bag clear out... so here we go...

So let me introduce myself and why on Earth I want to join the bloggers world out there... simple.... I'm for ever reading blogs. Every time I need info, be it a recipe, info on places to go, or general advice, I more often than not find all I need on the great world wide web - it's just fab and quite frankly I'd like to put my tuppence in and give a little back.

I'm sure over time my blog content will change and evolve (hey it's all a learning experience) but I hope to share some of my favourite recipes, cakes, odd attempts at DIY projects round the house and other good blog reads that I found particularly interesting.

Oh yes gardening, one of my mini obsessions. Until recently we were forever moving round rented properties, but now finally have a garden of my own. I am by no means an expert - far from it, but what I do know is I absolutely love pottering around in the garden, potting, digging, clipping, weeding. I'm still learning, but I'd love to keep a record of how the garden changes throughout the seasons... lets face it it's so easy to forget!

Gardening aside, the vast majority of my time is spent running round the three men in my life... (two little ones J & S and the not so little Mr D). Other than that I'm either reluctantly doing the mundane household tasks (I admit, housework doesn't really rock my boat... at all...but it has to be done I guess), making a mess in the kitchen, doing the ad-hoc DIY project or more than likely found tap tapping away on the computer, running my on-line shop.

More over I'd love to get feedback, good and bad (hopefully mostly good), so if you try out any recipes, taken some inspiration from any cakes I've posted or got any gardening tips please do get in touch, I'd love, love, love to hear from you.
