Enjoying my garden in the mini heatwave

April 20, 2018April 20, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

I always feel like winter is dragging on forever but things are finally looking up, dare a say a few days of sunshine too is on the horizon. Well, England has seen yesterday it’s hottest April day in 70 years, the temperature being 29 deg. A mini heatwave this week to be followed by a […]

Waffles with Hazelnut Chocolate spread and Strawberries

April 12, 2018April 14, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

I love good food, especially those that can be prepared and cooked easily and quickly. I have to say, this waffles dish is phenomenal. I wonder why I have never tried this desert before. So easy and quick. At first I was not even sure if it was supposed to be a breakfast or desert […]

So excited about Spring

April 7, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

The sun is out, it is not even that cold outside. It’s colder indoors than outdoors. And it is my first time in the garden since last year, maybe since October/December. Spring symbolises new life and here are a few of the photos I took of the plants in my garden, symbolising new life. I […]

Spring

March 26, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

After bleak days, cold, grey and dark, it looks like the good weather is here, the sun is shining and soon I will forget all about those winter days. Spring, the season of Hope. Unfortunately sunny weather means more washing for me, as I could spend all my days putting my washing up on the […]

Mothers Day

March 24, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

One of the days when I get to stay in bed in the morning while breakfast is being cooked ( by the hubby ) for me downstairs and get pampered all day. My daughter actually wanted me to stay in bed, all day though. If I did stay in bed, I would end up getting […]

Homemade Saturday Takeaway/Fakeaway

March 10, 2018April 12, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

This turned out to be easier than I thought. Just a bit of planning required and I get a decent fake away, freshly cooked by myself, so no surprises there. It is also so much healthier with less oil and salt added. I bought chicken, paneer, frozen peas, rice and pappadums which I fried. I […]

Bucket List

March 8, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

I have never made a Bucket List because I know there are things I want to do that I will never be able to do. So I have always been scared to write them down, as it will make it feel like a failure if I don’t ever manage to do them. Pessimist much !! […]

My Garden/Snow

March 7, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

Last week, I put on my wellies and ventured out to my garden and took some amazing photos of the snow. I say, ventured to my back garden because I simply do not go out there in Winter. In Summer, it is a different matter. I spend all my day until nightime out there, from […]

The Beast from The East

February 28, 2018 by My Trips and Tales

The cold spell, nicknamed The Beast from the East has arrived. Europe is shivering. Well, it is definitely colder than normal, although there is hardly any snow at my end. Yesterday, I joined the mad rush at my local supermarket and stocked up on food. The mad rush seems to be about panic buying of […]
