Did you miss me?

Hello to all my followers - this is just a short blog to let you know why I haven't blogged recently.

I've not long been out of hospital and was diagnosed with diabetes - so am just getting my head around it all 

- my next blog will probably be about diabetic recipes as I am trying desperately to make some nice tasty meals that aren't high in sugar or fat.

Very difficult for me as I love chocolate and nice rich (fatty) sauces on my food and I'm not too keen on vegetables!

So watch this space!

If any of you are diabetic and have some recipes then please feel free to add a link to this blog :-)

Today I'm making spicy sweet potato soup (apparently sweet potatoes have less sugar/carbs than normal potatoes) and stuffed mushrooms :-) -

Depending on how they turn out I will post the recipes.

 

September is the month to.......

I've decided to become more organised :-)

From now on, at the start of each month,

 I am going to blog about what I shall be blogging about over the coming month!!

 

That way, I may stick to the blog lists constantly whirring around in my head :-)

 

So... during September I shall be blogging about...

(amongst other things...)

 

1. Making the most of the last summer evenings

(Putting this into practice tomorrow evening hopefully)

 

2.Making caramel vodka

 

3. Christmas stuff

 

and

 

5. Woodland walks and preparing the house for Autumn.

 

 

I so wish I'd been born in America -

they take blogging so much more seriously

and put us to shame in the thrifting stakes!

I am in awe of them.

How do they find time to fit all that creativity in,

run a home and write about it too???
