My cutesy new little rabbit coasters :)

Two week blog break! Did you miss me? I kept meaning to get on here but I've been a busy bee and updating fell off the agenda. I did get round to changing the blog a little and adding a few extra pages though! I also have a new blogroll so if you would like to be added just leave a little comment and I'd be more than happy to pop you on the list.

Things have been mediocre. Nothing amazing has been happening and nothing devastating just pretty much the same old! Muddling along. I was really motivated and doing well with reducing my exercise but this week I've fallen off the wagon. I just never feel like what I am doing is enough which is ridiculous and completely irrational but I just have to keep reminding myself that I can't afford to do crazy amounts of physical activity when my health is in jeopardy.

I made a positive step and escaped Glasgow last weekend! Usually I jump ship to my mothers house but I went with my sister to Dundee for a friends 21st Birthday party. It was a fun evening and I met lots of lovely ladies from Dundee Destroyers the local roller Derby Team. The trip to Dundee was a sleepy one and I managed to snooze most of the journey which was very much needed! Before I left Glasgow I got stopped by the police. My girls pink bike got me in to big troubs! I finally plucked up the courage to go on the main road and was going along Dumbarton road in quite the daze. Skipped a red light and was alerted by a police man from the other side of the road. I got scared, peddled fast and spent the entire cycle home paying close attention to traffic signals and behaving in a very good cyclist manner. A lesson learned my friends!

Right! its been brief and I don't have a whole lot of interesting stuff to say and I must go make myself a cup of tea! I can't leave without saying Welcome back to the beautiful lovely Laura :) She is a wonderful person and I am so proud of her. ♥

Loving being at home! I was thinking back to when I was happiest and it was when I lived in the middle of nowhere away from the hub of things and being in the countryside has made me miss it so! Yesterday I went out a cycle and it was just great, the sun was shining, the breeze, the quiet and just being outdoors.

Upon finding my love of the bicycle I have taken to using it to go everywhere. I went swimming this afternoon and the pool was lovely jubbly warm. It makes quite a change to the fureezing pool I am used to. However its a new leisure facility and its very fancy with things like a moving pool floor! Yesterday the tots were in playing with ducks so they had the depth at 0.80 which made the 'deep end' feel like you were attempting to swim in the bath. Still it was warm so I shouldn't grumble...

Instead lets talk crumble... thats right! I made my first ever Raspberry crumble for mother dearest. I am getting into this whole country bumpkin thing so I picked fresh fruit from the garden and got to work in kitchen.

hello beasties! (not to worry I did wash the rasps)

mums verdict...

Success!

We have mini apples growing in the garden so i'll probably make an apple dish for me soon. I'm not a berry fan with the exception of strawbs. I do love my apples though! My favourites... pink ladies. Do you have a favourite fruit? Are any apples as tasty as my little pink ladies?! 

That's all for this tooty fruit post.

Much love
