It’s going to be hard…

Of all my blogs so far I think last weeks was my best…I got some wonderful comments and for that my friends… I thank you.

Was it that quote from the wonderful lady who was Eleanor Roosevelt? Or my scribblings..maybe a bit of both, she drew you in and I delivered.

Well, peeps, at last, I have copies of our book in my hands and I am winging one off to a very special lady in the UK…My Mum…..who I am sure will dine out for months with her friends from that wonderful group, that good old English tradition which is  “The Mothers Union” and I am happy to give her full bragging rights…haha.

Now I am back on track writing my novel which one of my short stories in the book is a prelude for. It’s exciting times for me.

Anyway enough of me, I am sure there are lots of my readers who are doing and achieving wonderful things and I wish you all good luck with your chosen projects.

 

Recipes well not really this week..I had a wonderful  Beef Rendang that my friend Manik made and I am going to get her to show me some more Indonesian dishes which I will share with you.

Ham, I am going to use a piece of Pork Loin this time…so will let you know how that turns out. It is smaller so the brining time is less.

Next week I will give you the recipe for a lovely healthy Thai Dish called  Miang Kham a lovely tasty Leaf wrapped dish.

To eat you add a little of each of those finely chopped delicious morsels in the Betel leaf add some tamarind sauce and pop it in your mouth…A delicious snack… Miang Kham.

Wooh well, my sneezes are defo not like this…..

It was a high-pitched sneeze, a most delicate sternutation, the merest zephyr tangled in a pretty, powdered, finger-tip of a nose.
— Eric Linklater, Magnus Merriman, 1934

Mine is so forceful that it has been known for my teeth to fly across the  room……no sniggering…. with a nose like a ski jump, square on the end…..always wanted a little button nose………it’s never gonna be a dainty sneeze now is it?

Excited or what grand kiddies on the way…

They have left Heathrow and winging their way here….2 weeks of bliss and fun I do hope they love Thailand as much as their Nannie……..who wouldn’t???? ooohhhhhh excited……so folks if you don’t get a blog then Y’all know why……..but never fear you will get pics, pics, and more pics……excited doesn’t come close….but all you nans out there know how I feel don’t you??????

 

Thank you for reading my blog and thank you for all the lovely comments and likes I got for last weeks love you all xxx
