New house, new resolution

I have been neglecting this blog a heck of a lot. Not that it matters to cyberspace, but I did promise myself this year, and last, that I would get back into the habit of regular writing. After abandoning print journalism three years ago for radio and now television, writing has somewhat fallen to the wayside.

But, I have discovered if you fall off the horse just get back on and pretend no-one saw it and carry on....so with that in mind I am reinstating the blog and will try and keep it up-to-date with my life and my creative work.

Since I last blogged we bought that house, and it turned out to be a complete wreck, over time I will write about what it was like revamping the rooms we have done so far and the huge renovations that are to come.
I am still making jewellery

And selling it online at Folksy and other fairs, plus I am enjoying getting away from the day to day world of work by making things for the house and working on improving my cooking and dessert making. 

Meringues seem to be my new go to pudding and I must say they taste great thanks to this method from Lorraine Pascale http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/spiced_blackberry_pear_14830

Well my actual work is calling me back now, so the procrastination must stop and I need to do some other writing, but I'll be back
