Multicoloured Madness: Monday Baking
https://multicolouredmadness.blogspot.com/2015/07/monday-baking.html
Monday, 13 July 2015. The day began with porridge, fresh coffee, fluffy drop scones and homemade/homegrown blackcurrant compote:. Little Miss PJ very pleased with the spread. The secret to the fluffy scones was whipped up coconut milk! After the school run and recycling/shopping trip, I made the sticky ginger cake and lemon and almond muffins whilst tea was bubbling on the stove. Grease and line a loaf tin. Preheat the oven to 180c. 75 grams unsalted butter. 2 medium eggs beaten. 1 teaspoon of mixed spice.

Multicoloured Madness: May 2015
https://multicolouredmadness.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Monday, 18 May 2015. Pip has recovered, Benedict started non stop vomiting this afternoon, I feel sick and Dave stumbled into bed with flu like chills and MS hassles as a result. Here's hoping normal service will resume shortly :-). Sunday, 17 May 2015. They say that bad luck comes in threes, but we've had a double dose this week :-). On Monday as I was heading out to a hospital appointment with Benedict, one of the valves blew on my car and so I limped home with a flat tyre and a cancelled appointment.

Multicoloured Madness: Judgement
http://multicolouredmadness.blogspot.com/2015/08/judgement.html
Friday, 7 August 2015. Judge not, that ye be not judged". A few steps farther and I encountered a group of locals ordering burgers from a trailer, complaining about some dispute with a friend, a lack of money and in true British fashion the state of the weather! I am a "work in progress" a useful Face Book status if ever there was one! I am eternally grateful that God is not done with me yet, that His mercies are new every morning and that little by little, He is teaching me to be a better person. Pray T...

Multicoloured Madness: July 2015
https://multicolouredmadness.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 28 July 2015. The stamping of feet in my head increases steadily as does the screaming voice, "But I don't want to! I don't want to carry this cross anymore,. I want to hand it back,. I have had enough. It's not what I would have chosen anyway,. God got it wrong,. Does He really know what He is doing? These thoughts have tormented me today. The frustration rankles me and what peace there may have been at the beginning of the day, has for sure waned by the day's end. Be still and know:. 1 Place t...

https://multicolouredmadness.blogspot.com/2015/07/two-uses-for-failed-home-made-yogurt.html
Tuesday, 14 July 2015. Two Uses For A Failed Home Made Yogurt. Despite following the recipe to the latter including heating the milk correctly and placing in a warmed thermos, when I woke this morning the culture had only thickened slightly and resembled a very thin cream. It became evident that re heating the mixture was a no-go so the only option was to make a soda bread loaf:. Pre- Heat the oven to 200C. 170 grams gluten free self raising flour. 170 grams gluten free plain flour. Breakfast in a glass.

Multicoloured Madness: January 2015
https://multicolouredmadness.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, 25 January 2015. First Benedict and now Pip, so we have had broken nights since the early hours of Friday morning. Typically the diabetes has been very whacky and in addition to waking as a result of the kids waking, I have also had to set my phone alarm on a two hourly rotation to make sure I keep the diabetes in check. In between boughts of fever and sickness, Pip was quite settled as long as I was nearby and in a funny way I accomplished a fair bit of work sat in that chair! Little Miss P J.

Multicoloured Madness: August 2015
https://multicolouredmadness.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Friday, 28 August 2015. Tea By The Sea and Other Stories. Pip completed her second swim intensive for the summer and the challenge was deep water confidence, she did very well and swims like a fish :-) I have also set myself a challenge and that is to overcome my lack of confidence in the water and so I begin an improvers' class next Wednesday! The level of difficulty increased as the test progressed. Funny stories with Quentin Blake style illustrations. A real family favourite! Little Miss P J. Really s...

Multicoloured Madness: November 2014
https://multicolouredmadness.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, 30 November 2014. It has been a busier week than usual, hence my absence from this space but here is a run through of the goings on at number twenty two:. On the whole she seems to be at peace about going to school; she has a really great friendship base and enjoys all aspects of her day. A very cheeky Robin came to say "Hello" and was inches away from my feet but by the time I could locate the camera it had perched itself on the branch instead! Chatting to the ducks. We are still keeping on trac...
