Rice pudding

I must admit I've never been a fan of rice pudding but Peter is and I decided that this weekend I would make one and introduce Sunshine to the delights. It was much easier than I thought, in fact I must confess that it was actually 'Big Cook Little Cook' which gave me the idea...
Anyway, the cooking went well and I managed not to burn it; once it had cooled a little Peter had a taste and I had a hard job getting him to leave some for today! Sunshine tried some at lunchtime but didn't seem too keen...but couldn't seem to get enough after her nap!

I've just started cooking another one, so perhaps there may be some left for Sunshine to take to Mums this week.....?! Oh and I did try a bit myself and I was surprised to find it not unpleasant!

Blurfection

I've found the perfect Flickr group for me and my blurry photos....although mine are generally blurry more by luck than judgement! :) Of course I'll only add the photos I think are worthy of viewing by others...hopefully it'll work out ok!

For cloud lovers everywhere...The Cloud Appreciation Society

I got onto this after watching BBC Breakfast (must be slow news week) this morning and having a preview of some of the fantastic cloud formations.

And here's one of mine...

May Update

It's been a while since I last posted mainly because there hasn't been too much to report. I'm back at home now which is great. It was nice staying with my mum (thanks mum!) but it's even better to be home. Sunshine has started going to her childminder - which is how I'm managing to be at home otherwise I would still be with my mum! Sunshine seems to be quite happy with the arrangements although I'm sure there will be days when she isn't! Life has improved dramatically since my op and I'm looking forward to the summer and being able to pick Sunshine up...it'll also make it easier for me to take her to meet friends! The physio is going well and I actually managed to drive myself to the hospital on Monday which is brilliant. I am now mobile! Peter is worried that I'll spend too much in the shops...but he needn't worry too much as I wouldn't be able to carry the bags!
This week I am dead impressed with Snapfish! I made an order yesterday morning and the photos arrived this morning in the post!
