Post Comment Love 6-8 January

Welcome to this week’s #PoCoLo - the first of 2023, so Happy New Year!

#PoCoLo a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any blog post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked and share some of that love. We’re pleased you’re here and hope to see you again next Friday.

I hope you all had a relaxing, revitalising and refreshing break. We had a great time spending time with family over an extended period, swapping gifts and enjoying good food, which was just what was needed. The decorations are all down now, and this year in an attempt to get organised I’ve bought a tree bag and some smaller plastic storage bags for the baubles and other decorations we’ve collected over the years.

To be honest the bags are pretty dull, but entirely functional - which is the important part. But I couldn’t resist some personalised labels, which I know will make me smile next time we get them out of the cupboard.

Welcome to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any blog post published in the last week.

If you were here last week it was great to have you along, if you’re new here this week we’re pleased you’re here.

*** This is our last linky of the year. We’re taking a break over the festive season and will be back again on Friday 6 January 2023. Thank you for joining us this year, and we look forward to seeing you again in January. Have a great Christmas and New Year! ***

Brrrr. It’s a bit chilly here. Hopefully you’re all keeping warm and as toasty as you can. There’s definitely been days where we’ve officially hunkered down and it’s the sort of weather that encourages you to eat heartily and hearty food. Well, that’s my excuse anyway. Last Friday I made these baked doughnuts, which are more of a cross between a doughnut and a muffin, and taste really good. Both MOH and I were out at different social events that day, his during the day, mine in the evening. So, and bless him, he didn’t believe me when I said I’d made these - though of course, when he got home he was happy enough to try them out. As was I when I got home!

Post Comment Love 2-4 December

Welcome to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any blog post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked and share some of that love. If you were here last week it was great to have you along, if you’re new here this week we’re pleased you’re here.

This week seems to have flown by, but with nothing much to show for it if you know what I mean. There’s been paperwork for our house move, and getting things sorted. Some gardening on the days with brighter weather, and of course the football.

Squeeze put on a great concert at the O2, which for us is just a short bus ride away. We had a bit of a run around trying to find out where to pick up tickets, but we weren’t the only ones and so made some new friends as we followed them from box office to box office. The tickets, which I won in a competition from our local deli, were standing tickets which I wasn’t sure about. I had nothing to worry about though, as we still got a good view and had space to have a bit of a dance too!

Don’t ask MOH about the service at the bar in the IndigO2 though, it was far from great. Too few bar staff, and beer on tap that ran out - so not ideal. But overall a really good evening out, which we hadn’t planned for.

PS Happy December!
