Life is fast !

If you don't stop once in a while ....


Hold on hold on that is the start of Ferris Buellars day off!



If you don't stop once in a while ,to see what you've actually got in your cupboards ,then you could be missing on on creating some really tasty ingredients with cupboard ( superhero basic s)

Method 


Mix together the flour and baking powder , season with salt and pepper.


Combine with the egg and half of the milk.


Whisk to create a batter , gradually adding in the rest of the milk.

Add in your Brocolli, Sweetcorn and Feta cheese , stir in . You might need to add a little bit of ,ill in if you find the mixture is too thick.

Heat a frying pan over a medium heat , add 2 tablespoons of light olive oil.


When hot enough spoon in about 1 tablespoon of mixture .

Fry on each side for 2-3 minutes of each side.

Repeat until the mixture is used up , you'll be able to fit around 4 in the pan.


These can be kept warm in the oven until you need them .

My Blogging Therapy

At the moment I'm in the grips of a positive flow blog wise , life wise everything wise that's not to say I dint get down as I do but the dips I'm in are getting shallower. I have no doubt I'll always have depression /.anxiety but it's how I deal with it that counts  and my support network around me . Just as you wouldn't say to a depressed person " do you think you should have the tablets "

You shouldn't say to me to "take the tablets "


I'm tablet free depression wise but that's my choice , my therapy is in other quarters tea , cars countryside and I do love a good  bunting . I'm contemplating going to knitting at some point but haven't since knitting rate consumed me ps I didn't go loco with the knitting needles instead it's a patience issue which is something I've got to work on reality .

So my therapy continues 



There's no point in grieving on what is lost in my world instead I work on what I'll become .

Pointless Selfies





I really don't have much confidence in my appearance, I have the sort of eyebrows that are like Beaker from the muppets and a beautician at a blogging event was quite rude. 

Neither do I like photos of myself really but every so often I get a flash of self confidence and take one. 


Then other times I just get plain silly 


Quite a few of me are pictures wearing a bobble hat 



Or obscured by the cat 



 So selflies are sort of pointless and at the time for me a measure of my self confidence.

Spring Review


I'm typically an early riser anyway but this morning I decided or rather my subconscious decided to wake me up at silly o' clock and a 6th sense told me to make best of the golden light. I thought well I'll just go review Spring and seeing as Spring is a bit of a diva at the moment it was really the best idea to  tred lightly.  Spring has less complicated lyrics than a BeyoncĂ© song and is more worthy of breaking the Internet than Kim Kadashian.


This was the view that created me this morning .




Spring is a little confused having been on her travels , Spring is a lady right?


I think Spring is jet lagged and is bursting into tears ,  the bursting into tears is happening a little but too much and I'm really not liking the constant rain ...

Or snow .


Or hail.

Or plague of locusts ...


Disclosure I reviewed Spring early in the morning ( sure that's a song , I drank tea before I went out and possibly this was an offering to Spring .
