August 31st 2015 - Bank holiday weather

August 31st 2015 - Bank holiday weather

Saw this pin and had to laugh as usually it is very true of bank holiday weather!  HOWEVER, it is NOT the case for today up in the lake district.  The sun is shining, its very hot and lovely!  A really nice day.

And here is a pic to prove it:

July 3rd 2015 - Paddling pool

July 3rd 2015 - Paddling pool

Today is another hot day and we got the paddling pool out for the kids.  Ours is similar to this one in that it is hexagonal and has a shade not a full gazebo.

January 6th 2015 - beef casserole

January 6th 2015 - beef casserole

As its cold outside I decided to do a beef casserole in the slow cooker for tea.  All seemed good until I opened the bag of diced casserole beef (from supermarket) to find that most of it was fatty!  I'm hoping that with what I salvaged from the bag along with the tray I also had in freezer is enough to feed us all for tea.  I can safely say I wont be buying the stew pack beef again.  The idea for todays pin came from here.

I don't follow a recipe I just throw it all in.  Into the pot has gone diced beef, diced potatoes, sliced carrots, beef gravy, beef casserole powder, an oxo cube, regea regea sauce and worcestershire sauce.  smells lovely and usually tastes lovely.  I will addd a pic once its cooked!
