Cooking for Immie


This is a pic of the big vat of bolognese I have just made for Immie. I have put it in to the freezer in individual portions so she can have it with pasta, tatties or  mash. It has swede, carrots and sweetcorn in. I added peas after this pic too. I don't cook for Immie as much as I should/would like. She eats a lot of ready made stuff. Some people will turn their nose up at that but she eats fresh all week at nursery and if you buy sensibly checking the salt, sugar and fat content of anything processed isn't too high then it isn't a problem.

And before anyone bangs on about additives, additives are in the majority of food anyway, seemingly fresh stuff will have additives to colour it, make it last longer and make it taste better.

Imogen loves fish fingers and chips.  Also, shock horror we *whispers* sometimes take her to McDonalds!!!!

 I don't think that makes me a bad mummy, Immie gets a balance and that is what life is about.

Posh Box


On Friday we took delivery of Imogen's beautiful new toy box. It was made by Jeremy at http://www.poshbox.co.uk/. He made it, then drove all the way to Barnsley from Cambridgeshire. It is stunning and we love it. If you're in the market for a toy box I'd definitely recommend him.
