Happiness is.....

A lovely, quiet Saturday with nothing whatsoever in the diary or on the to-do list.

No more chores to do this weekend.

I am very jealous!

For me, happiness is getting a birthday card with a nice message in it from my sister because it is the first time in four months that she has contacted me.

Realising, thanks to Q-G, that what this afternoon really called for was a hot bath and a glass of cold unoaked Chardonnay. 

And as a bonus, my mom sent me an envelope of bits and bobs and included the September issue of Gourmet which is all Latin American recipes! I just spent a blissful soak ripping recipes out of it - now to do a Cool Chile order!!!

Two soda's
One huge Cottage Pie
One huge Jacket Potato (Three fillings)
Less then a Fiver!

Costco RULES!

Absolutely! I was thinking I would send it to you but I ended up ripping it to shreds - so many things I want to try!!!!

oooh no youre not!!! a clean bathroom to a pregnant lady is a *very* important thing!

Having enough Marriott points that added up to four free nights of our stay when we go back to the states for a visit soon! 

Happy that we don't have to stay at my sister's place (when we visit she is OTT happy at first and then gets in a terrible mood which has made our trips back quite difficult). It's a shame because we were best friends once upon a time (before I moved to the UK).

That said, peace at last!   

Three kids in bed. Just had a hot bubble bath followed by Hob Nobs dunked in hot tea.

Before 8PM? That's pretty good going.

Yea, ain't those Hob Nobs nice? Just finished a packet. All by myself. Didn't require any help. I was so sure I didn't need help, that I didn't even ask if any one wanted to help.

I just got the shout from the kitchen....Pavlova and Strawberry's in 10 mins....I love Pavlova....I crave it....yummy yummy
