Advent: 2nd December – snakes alive!
Today was my birthday! I won’t say how old I now am – but the clue is in the title of this post! I had a lovely evening – we went to see Mockingjay part one in Norwich and then on for some tapas. Luckily the horrible drizzly rain that had been with us all…
Read MoreAdvent: 1st December – dull, cold and dismal
A few years back I successfully blogged every day for advent – either one or several images. Despite good intentions I’ve not quite managed to keep up with posting every day in subsequent years. However this year I’m going to give it another go with the aim of blogging both here and on my personal Blog The Pixel…
Read MoreThat was October
October came and went so quickly – it certainly was a strange month in terms of the weather with temperatures in the 20s some days. When the sun wasn’t shining we had some amazing skies and a couple of very dramatic storms. Last week was half term and we went on a mini road trip…

Bit late in doing this but here we go…the month in pictures – a mix of morning walk pictures, phone pictures, family stuff and a few work ones thrown in for good measure!
Read MoreWhat’s for tea Tommy? Sausage pasta!
Regular readers to The Pixel Chef will know that I have a teenage son, Tom, who is at University in Lincoln. I have to say that in spite being brought up in a house where there has always been lots of home cooking, Tom has yet to embrace catering fully for himself. From what I…

I am tired – I have had a day copywriting followed by an important Parish Council meeting. It’s also a Fast Day (more on that soon) and I missed Bake Off…However I have just remembered how fun it is to make these – so I did!!

This is a fantastic tasty and very economical roast which will have your whole house smelling just wonderful! As with all of my recipes I only use good quality, high welfare meat sourced as close to home as possible from local butchers. I bought the piece of belly that you see above from B W…
Read MoreMediterranean Lincoln
So after four months at home for the summer today was the day to take our son Tom back to university in Lincoln. In all honesty it seems like he has been home forever – and it’s often hard to imagine that he ever went away. The summer has certainly had its high points –…
Read MoreChilli vinegar and chips – a trip to Great Yarmouth
Yesterday my son Tom and I were working in Great Yarmouth providing film and photography for Opportunities Norfolk – an event offering advice, guidance and job opportunities for young people. After we’d finished we took a wander into the town for a lunch of chips from the market – it’s all glamour in this business! It was also…
Read MoreSuper clouds – super moon
It began this morning with another lovely later summer early morning walk. The sky was bluer than blue with curious streaks and wisps of clouds trailing across the sky. This evening there was a super harvest moon. We bolted our tea and rushed to see it rise orange and streaked with cloud, from the village…
Read MoreThree go mad in Reepham!
At the end of the summer holidays I had a fabulous reunion with two of my oldest and bestest friends – Cheryl and Philippa. Cheryl and I met at infant school where, for a while we hated each other, before finally becoming good mates. Philippa came on the scene at High school (the old and…
Read MoreA Pandora’s Kitchen of delights!
A few weeks back I was tablet browsing the internet, tucked up in bed on a Saturday morning. I must admit to feeling a tiny bit the worse for wear as the night before we had been out for a great meal with friends at the Hingham White Hart, where the wine had flowed rather…
