Through The Garden Gate. Thursday, 12 November 2015. All in one fruit cake ( courtesy of a margarine tub many years ago! This has to be one of the easiest fruit cakes ever. I used to make it years ago when I had three very small sons and not a lot of time. Thumbing through a very old notebook I have just rediscovered the recipe. Perfect for this time of year when your Christmas cake is sitting waiting until the 25th December and you fancy the taste of all that delicious fruit. 5 oz caster sugar. Ill see ...

Stand and Stare....: Remembrance of Things Past..
http://slowlivinginafastlife.blogspot.com/2014/04/remembrance-of-things-past.html
Stand and Stare. My blog about crochet and crafting; concerts and countryside; cooking, cars and cats. Wednesday, 23 April 2014. Remembrance of Things Past. Mark and I 'got lucky' with the weather when we booked a short break in Swanage just before Easter. We parked the car at the hotel and walked everywhere for four days. It was a great way to get rid of the last of the 'winter fug' and a lovely chance for me to revisit one of my teenage haunts. I've shared some of my teenage memories here. I wondered w...

Stand and Stare....: August 2013
http://slowlivinginafastlife.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Stand and Stare. My blog about crochet and crafting; concerts and countryside; cooking, cars and cats. Friday, 30 August 2013. A walk round Namur. Namur is dominated by an immense citadel, perched on the cliff above the river Meuse. There are extensive views up and down the river. Its easy to see why, in this frequently war-torn part of central Europe,. That the King decided to build this immense fortress. The old castle fortifications were swallowed up by Vauban's new ditches, tunnels and walls. This or...

Stand and Stare. My blog about crochet and crafting; concerts and countryside; cooking, cars and cats. Wednesday, 30 April 2014. The Age of Miracles. I picked up this brilliant book from one of the local charity shops last Friday. It has joined an elite band of books that I considered to be truly 'un-put-down-able'. You know the ones - books that you don't want to stop reading, but you never want to end. For 36 hours I cooked with one hand, ate with one hand and completely ignored my husband! On the East...

A place for everything.....: March 2015
http://aplacefor-everything.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
A place for everything. A lifestyle blog recording my everyday comings and goings. Thursday, 5 March 2015. I've been making notebooks, journals, scrapbooks and mini photo albums for a few years now, loving the diversity of the many designs, layouts and size. I'm a collectaholic, (is there such a word? Now some might scorn at what I'm about to say but I actually check out charity shops for old books which are long past their use by date and about to go into the great bookshop in the sky. Why you ask?
