There comes a point in your life where something has happened to make you realise how things have changed. For us this very thing this month. The two middle children, in September, will no longer be home educated. They are both starting at the local college to begin their next level of education. This of …
The photo challenge by Dutch Goes The Photo is technology. Although technology is everywhere it’s something that I haven’t made a point of photographing very often. When I think about what I use technology for it is EVERYTHING, it’s my life. All day, I’m working and using technology, when I am not working I am …
Well we did it! Got to the end of Saturday and survived. After my last update there was so much happening. The children, well two of them, had their final GCSE exam. They were studying physics, it’s over now much to their delight. I told them if they pass good they don’t have to study …

I am missing doing my bread baking tutorials. I have started to double up my bread baking and that has meant I’ve baked less. I made tiger bread on Monday and it has lasted us till today. I have also made sourdough bread in between times and it tends to last a little while also. …

As the children have got older I have written less about them. It’s not that they have grown out of favour, just for cringe factor purposes they probably don’t like me talking about them a whole lot. Sometimes Sol lets me write about shared activities and Seb loves to bake along side me. Toni, well …
