Happy Sunday....

Harpers December issue - Marion Cotillard

....thoughts of NYC this week....

We've hibernated pretty much this week, it's been our half-term holiday....and it's been blissful.

Taking a break, sleeping in & just being.

Children are always so busy these days, so many activities & distractions available to them. 

I think it's really important to just be - and to learn how to entertain themselves & do something other than stare at a screen.

Since I started my "30 Dishes in 30 Days" November challenge, I have unleashed my inner Nigella and have been cooking up a storm....I can't stop actually. 

My only rule is that all the dishes have to be something I've never made before, I'm loving it! 

So far I've made : 

Pea & Potato Soup

Fish Pie

Balsamic Red Onion & Goat's Cheese Tart

Maple Syrup & Vanilla Ice Cream

Cinnamon rolls

Join me if you would like to....although I've already decided I will do this again in either January or February so I may need cooking buddies then :)

Happy Sunday!!
