Don't forget!


Hubby was in London until late last night and I was all on my little lonesome and trying to think of something for tea. With some interesting veg left in the fridge I made a a kind of veggie sauce to go with some pasta. I don't know what went wrong but it tasted totally bleugh. (hence why there is a photo of a funky looking plant I saw on a walk a few weeks ago and not my godawful pasta) It was missing something, but I just couldn't work out what it was. I consoled myself with a Tunnock's wafer. Tunnocks wafers are a bit of a enigma. You never see people buying and eating them, but according to their packaging they sell 4,000,000 a week. I especially love the dark chocolate wafers.

We certainly felt the earthquake on Wednesday. It felt as though someone was at the foot of our bed and shaking it, however it wasn't the trembling I found the scariest, but the rumbling sound resonating from the cottage. It was incredibly spine-chilling sound followed by and eerie silence. In the grand scheme of things the earthquake we experienced was minor compared to the earthquakes that some other countries, but I hope I never experience one again. The BBC summed up the earthquake perfectly "a very British earthquake - everyone's talking about it, but no-one's been badly hurt"

Don't forget the competition to win a years supply of Kinder Bueno. The competition is open to UK residents only. The winner will be the first entry drawn at random after the closing date of 1st March 2008 and will win 52 Kinder Buenos. Good Luck

  1. I am glad to hear you weren't hurt in the earthquake, must have been pretty scary though!
    Oooh, I love those Tunnocks bars too, and I've never seen anyone else buying them either!

  2. Glad to hear all is well after the earthquake Jules :D I live approx 15 miles from where it started so I fully understand the sounds and cottage shaking.

  3. I buy Tunnocks Bars too. My favourite once are the golden-coloured ones that have got some kind of crispy bits in the chocolate coating. You can hardly ever find that variety anywhere though. Sometime they have it in SupaSave, which is the only reason I ever go in there.
    i slept through the Earthquake. There was me thinking I was a light sleeper. ;)

  4. I slept right through the earthquake as did the small. My hubby felt it but he was still vegging in front of the TV at that point, he's very much a night owl.
    Replied about nut butters on my blog.

  5. Nic - Tunnocks things rock!

    Rosie - It was bad enough here and I would hate to be 15miles from it.

    Sylvie - Oooh I had forgotten about the golden ones, they are yum. I may have to pop into supasave to see if I can find them in there.

    esther - quite a few of the people I work with slept through the earthquake.
