Lent

Ive given up alcohol for lent, I wasn't much of a drinker anyway, but it's surprisingly tough. I went out for cocktails last night with friends from work, they all drank alcohol; I had a banana milkshake. It was an odd feeling, knowing that I couldn't drink. More often than not I choose not to drink, but the choice was no longer there. So it got me to thinking about how limited the soft drink options are when you go out, and I like soft drinks quite a lot, they are soft after all! Anyway...

• I want to make my own cola.

Ive found an awesome looking recipe here, I think ill probably wait for summer, and give it a blast along with some homemade lemonade. Yum. I'm such a dork.

February Food for thought

Well I didn't expect February to start the way it did, but there have been some pretty good things so far too, and they have got me thinking.

After hours chattering away to Hannah at the Twin Atlantic gig, I asked her if she would take photos of all the things that I bake for a while, so that I can build enough recipes with photos that match, to start my own food blog. so, that leads me to:

• Create my very own food blog

Although i think the toughest part of that would be deciding what to call it...hmm
