I'm Back!

This is probably my first post this year!  I know, pathetic.

So, what excuse do I have for this laziness?  Well, there has been a lot of travelling this year (right this moment there are still some unpacked suitcases in my boudoir) and I have started to exercise a lot more frequently, so I have practically no free time.  Daughter's school work has also got more demanding (for some reason schools here think at least one parent is also enrolled as a student).  There are always some time consuming pieces of work to be done, usually crafts! Hair brained management of school has made it their business to overturn almost all old school rules.  One of the results of one such stupid new rule of getting rid of staggered timings is that now it takes forever to come home.  After H's bout of dengue, he's also given up the daily drops of Daughter to school, so more has been added to my list of chores. 

Ok so the above, rather than being excuses are basically a snapshot of my life right now.  Many more chores to do!

Thanks to H having turned gluten and lactose intolerant after his bout of dengue I find that I have lost my interest in cooking as I can only cook very specific things now.

Anyway, here are  2 of the things I made recently, with a little involvement of Daughter too.


The first one is devilled eggs made interesting with a few mustard seeds and tomato pieces.  The second one is gluten free cupcakes for the hubby on the 17th anniversary of our being together.

I'm making this post short and sweet so that I actually publish it!  Cheers all!
