Ok, so some of us (I am usually one of them) will have leftover chocolate after Easter, so I thought I’d try and come up with some suggestions of how it can be used up in other ways.
Here are some websites with chocolate themed recipes if you are still unsure.

Loads of places sell sausage rolls, or you can even make your own.
I have to admit my favourite, eat out sausage rolls are from Greggs.
If I am buying to eat later then it’s the mini ones that Tesco sell.
Yes, I have made them in the past, but prefer these and they aren’t something I eat very often so they are a treat.
The Covid-19 pandemic has brought about a significant change in our lives. We have had to adapt to new norms such as wearing masks, social distancing, and limiting our activities including work, family, and education. While everyone has their own thoughts on the matter, I would like to share my personal experience and how it has affected me.
As a volunteer, I was disheartened when the organisation I worked with had to close its doors due to the pandemic. However, I quickly adjusted to the new normal.
The teenager had the new experience of online learning, and people found ways to break up the monotony of day-to-day life. Although we couldn’t go out to eat, we supported local food businesses by ordering deliveries, which were a real treat.
Wearing a mask was not a big issue for me, but it did pose a challenge when communicating with others as I am deaf and rely on lip-reading. Despite this, I remained positive and grateful for the essential workers who continued to serve the nation during this time. From NHS staff to teachers, carers, shop staff, and refuse collectors, they all deserve our heartfelt thanks.
One wonderful thing to come out of it, is that I do feel that despite people having to keep social distancing and not being able to spend time together in person, this experience has brought communities closer together, and I hope this will be a positive lasting legacy of the pandemic.
The pandemic also made me realise how much I used to rush around before it hit. I have since slowed down and appreciated the little things in life. While it was strange to be so limited in what we could do and where we could go, I have adjusted to this new way of life. However, I am looking forward to exploring more now that things seem to have settled down. I hope that we won’t see a resurgence of the virus and that everyone stays safe and well.
I used to hate early mornings, but now I much prefer them. Thus I usually get up about 7.20am.
Once I’m up and awake, I wash and get dressed. Letting the dog out for a pee at some point during the getting up and ready process.
Then it’s the all essential first cuppa of the day, which is tea (never coffee, I can’t stand the stuff) and sometimes I’ll have something light to eat as well, such as a piece of fruit, a yoghurt or a scone.
Whilst I’m having this the dog will be eating his breakfast, and generally wanting a fuss and attention.
Once breakfast is over I’ll do any really quick tasks that need to be done, and then it’s off out for the first walk of the day.
Are you an early bird, or a night owl? I used to be a night owl, but now enjoy early mornings and getting on with the day.
I am sorry I’ve not managed to write today.
All being well I’ll write tomorrow evening, uk time.
Meanwhile, here a fabulous day.
I’m posting this with a heavy heart….😥
As much as I love Blogging and everything that comes with it..it is taking up too much of my time. I am struggling to keep up with the everyday basics of cleaning and cooking and maintaining my home, so something has to give.
I have decided to get rid of my gear.
Below is a list of what is available. Serious enquiries only, and please, no low ball offers.
Thanks for reading and understanding. Here is what I have:
Happy April 1st Everyone 😂😂
When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Almost every child has dreams of what they’d like to be when they grow up, I certainly did. What did you want to be, and is that the job you have now?
As a child I spent a lot of time in and out of the doctor’s and hospitals, so I think it was only inevitable that at some point I’d desire to work in the medical profession somehow. I dreamt of being a nurse, even at a young age I realised that this probably wasn’t a realistic career path for me, but even so it was one I hoped to attain.
Later on having grown beyond this and taken on board that this wasn’t going to happen, I turned my aim towards working with young children in someway, I wasn’t sure what in form this job would take, and was advised that this would never be possible due to my disability. On this, I am delighted to say, I proved the nay sayers wrong.
In the end I did indeed work with young children for over ten years, as a Nursey School Assistant. I helped them with their reading, writing, crafts, and also to build their computer skills. Along the way I also hope I taught them other life skills such as empathy, tolerance, sharing, listening, and understanding everyone is different but of equal value/importance.
Access, Inclusion, & Other Stuff.
