Rainy Sunday

It's Sunday...
It's raining...
We didn't leave the house all day...

Chilling on Saturday

Who here is envious of Jazzy Boy - this is what he does best at the weekend! Takes up the whole sofa though!

Jazz Helping with eBay

Here's my guard-cat looking after the eBay parcels to be posted. Pity he's sleeping on the job!

My eBay Workstation

Here's where it all happens! My very own little eBay sales counter, post office and dining table all in one *lol*.

Derek Hard at Work

While Derek was out washing the car in the freezing cold, I was staying warm inside with Jazz.

My Angel Lost Her Wings :'o(

It was a sad, sad day in the Reid household today... :'o( I leaned over and knocked my little glass angel by the side of my bed over... and her halo and wings fell off. :'o( She's too delicate to glue back together so now I really want to find a new one! She's holding an emerald stone (by birth stone) and has been happy beside my Lucky Duck for years!

For Charms: Curtains *lol*

Curtains. Simple as that! Lol.

Warm, Cosy Fireplace

Our fireplace in our living room. Mickey Mouse is our pride and joy ~ he's a plate holder lol all the way from Disney World, FL.

On the top we have:

~ a beautiful Wedding photo in a frame from my Grandparents,

~ a cat ornament from my sister,

~ a glass block etched with our Wedding photo from my In-Laws,

~ the clock is a Wedding present from my friend Alison,

~ a 'someone special' glass token from my Mother-in-Law,

~ a gorgeous glass sculpture which we got from Charms for our 1st anniversary,

~ a lovely wee frame with a photo of Holly in it, Derek's God-Daughter.

Happy Valentine's Day! <3

Hope you all have a great Valentine's Day!!!

My 2 Best West-Coast Boys

One word..... ADORABLE!

Our Cupboard

A glimpse inside one of our kitchen cupboards... pasta, jelly (which for you non-UK people is the wobbly stuff you have with ice cream not what you put on bread lol.) Also have some maple syrup, Indian and Chinese sauces, baked beans, soup etc.

Bits 'n' Bobs

As you enter our hallway you see these bits 'n' pieces. A Fantasia Mickey Mouse bank from our Honeymoon, a heart-shaped box decorated with shells from Barbados (thanks Charms!!) and three wee ornaments from our holiday in Rome.

Derek's Birthday ~ 1

It's Derek's birthday tomorrow, hence the advance warning for loads of Derek pics lol.

The Low-Fat Carrot Cake!!

Well guys, Delia's recipe for low-fat carrot cake worked out! And here's the proof! It's very sweet, very moist, and the cream cheese topping is to die for! :oD Don't take my word for it, you should go make it ~ now! Lol.

DVD's

Awww, the final photo in January. :o(

Jazz's Breakfast

He just looked too cute not to photograph!

Happy House-Day Jazz

My two boys at the vet. We've had Jazz 1 year now so he was at the vet for his yearly check-up. If you look super close, you can see his wee white bits through the bars of the box!
Sorry it's not too clear - stupid light coming in the window!

Bonsai

This is the window ledge in my kitchen. Hand cream, a dog-shaped radio my Uncle Ronald in Australia gave me, and a Bonsai tree my Mother-in-Law gave me for Christmas.

Drunk on Country

I'm not even going to say a word here ~ go read the post on my journal blog from today lol.
