Number one – Eat more dip

Belle and I were eating some beetroot and mint dip a few days ago, after a Christmas diet consisting mainly of rose creams and that cheese with the bits of apricot in, and we were really enjoying it.

“We should eat more dip,” I said.

Belle, munching loudly on a piece of cucumber, agreed.

“When I came home from school,” she said, “instead of having some brioche, I could eat dip. We could start off with something simple like mint, and then work out way up to more adventurous things.” She does likes a project.*

“Good idea,” I said. “Let’s eat more dip next year.”  View Post

Today my blog is one year old.

For twelve whole months now I have been sharing some of the random thoughts that pass through my mind, amusing you with my dating horror stories, revealing my selfish attitude to parenting, and revolting you with my talk of smear tests.

During the year, my blog has been looked at 61,153 times, produced 165 posts (not including this one), attracted 3,270 comments and won one actual real life award. Generally I’m pretty pleased with how it has gone, especially as I started it on a bit of a whim, never having read a blog before, and with no real idea of what I wanted or hoped to achieve.
