Well I hope all owls found some enjoyment at Christmas 😃

All 15 of my guests have gone home so a quiet pink household has been resumed, I love them all but that many people in one place there is no escape and Pinkrabbit was a bit over whelmed too.

The dc have gone with mil for a sleepover so me and dh are going to have a relaxed night cuddled up on the sofa watching trainspotting 2, drink champagne and eat the chilli dh is making me.

Happy new year owls Smile 🍾

Weather isn’t bad here today, lovely clear blue sky so we are going to take the dc for a walk round the park. Will be a nice way to start the new year

Anyone up? Ill with norovirus and flu here.

BeekyChitch · 02/01/2019 01:10

I'm up just can't stop overthinking about how bloody big I've got over Christmas. Haha. Hope you've got plenty of medicine, water and a bucket to hand @LearningMySelfWorth it's such a nasty bug!!

LearningMySelfWorth · 02/01/2019 01:13

@BeekyChitch, my mums been sharing her painkillers so now I'm feeling fuzzy and ill rather than ill and sore. So a mild if disorienting improvement. I think it's the law to get bigger over Christmas though so I'd not worry about that Grin

BeekyChitch · 02/01/2019 01:20

Sharing is caring! When did it start? Did you have a nice day for New Years at least?

LearningMySelfWorth · 02/01/2019 12:02

I've been ill for like three days which sucks, it started on NYE so it's been a bit crappy really.

PinkHeart5914 · 03/01/2019 18:13

Hi Owls, just flying in so I don’t lose you.

Hope you are all doing ok 😃

It was my Mums birthday today so her and Dad are over from France visiting us, which is lovely and the dc enjoy them being here so much.

Hi all, not much going on here. Dh is driving me mad now , he has been off nearly a month ! I think he will go back to work on Monday, but suggested he did a few half days before getting stuck into full days. Although saying that, he has done extremely well and feels fine. Just three more days of injections to give him and that's over, although I don't mind that bit ! Can't believe it's all done and dusted now. He is back driving and been to a couple of footi games. Tonight he has gone to his pub quiz , although he is driving others so cant drink !
Our Xmas stuff will have to stay up a bit longer as all the boxes etc are up in our roof. For the moment I don't want him climbing up there, but it's not important for the moment and it's a minor thing in the scheme of things.
Pink have a lovely time with your parents.
Becca poor you not being fed. Lucky you didn't waste away. >

I love Lardy cake!!!!! You sure you're the real lin ?

LearningMySelfWorth · 03/01/2019 23:54

Hey all. Currently sitting watching youtube and planning to go make food in a few mins. Got a deadline for some uni assignments on the 6th that need to be done and then an exam on the 7th. Slept most of today away because I couldn't sleep last night and can't justify the lost hours so tonight is watch my youtube video and then plan my work then maybe out some food on and then package the things I've sold recently and then back to working. But I need to change my light bulb first because the disco one isn't conducive to working and while soothing while relaxing makes me dizzy while I read.

How is everyone else doing/been?

PinkHeart5914 · 04/01/2019 10:36

Wonders what lardy cake is? Is it made from lard? Confused 🤔

Lovely blue sky today but it is bloody freeezing I tell you, I am not a polar bear I don’t like this temperature at all

Becca19962014 · 04/01/2019 12:35

It is and its yummy.

PinkHeart5914 · 04/01/2019 18:48

Have googled lard cake and pink is not sold to be honest!

My parents have left now to go on and visit my younger brother, the dc are all asleep so I am going to convince dh once his back from work he wants to cook his lovely wife some dinner becuase I am too lazy to cook tonight.

Mummylin · 04/01/2019 20:50

Oh pink lardy cake is scrumptious. You can just pull a chunk off and eat it. It's so sticky and sweet, dee - licious

It's very very yummy! Especially when made to my secret recipe. I'd make it at uni and it'd be gone really fast. It's a regional thing though once people taste it they rarely hate it!

PinkHeart5914 · 04/01/2019 23:21

If it’s a regional thing maybe that’s why I’ve never heard it, I’ve always been in the south east so maybe it’s not a thing here. Granny never made it anyway, I’m blaming granny for my lack of lardy cake knowledge
