confused about google reader.......


....are you as confused as I am about google reader disappearing tomorrow???

I've read lots of different blog posts, articles and more about what I should or shouldn't do before tomorrow and I'm still none the wiser.

I use the blogger dashboard on my mac to read your posts and I use the feeddler app on my iPhone and iPad to read them when I'm away from the computer.

From what I had read the loss of google reader wouldn't affect me but when I opened feedler this morning I received a warning notice.

I've read some more articles and seen some more blogposts and have decided to use feedly to read your blog posts on my mac, iPhone and iPad.

I'm still not sure how it is all going to affect us tomorrow but at least I will be able to see what you are all up to.

Joining Feedly and transferring all my blogs over was super easy - just a click of a button and there you all were.

As for following me well that is something I'm not sure about, I have heard rumours that Google Friends Connect either doesn't work or will being heading the same way as google reader very shortly but it appears that you if you too transfer your blog list over to feedly or bloglovin you should still be able to see my posts, alternatively you can subscribe by email.

Thanks for reading this slightly confusing post by a very confused blogger........

I Like to Eat.....


....school mash


I bought an ice cream scoop because Paul said he wanted old fashioned school mash, I couldn't resist a photo opportunity.


And the delicious onion gravy to go with them.

I Like to Eat.......


For breakfast the other day Paul asked me if I would like a bagel, "yes please" I said "with jam".
This is what I got!


Even after scraping off some jam I still couldn't decide if it was a bagel with jam or jam with bagel.


What do you think?

I Like to Eat......Indian

This evening we headed out to one of our local Indian restaurants in celebration of Father's Day. Being the Mum of two teenagers just breathing in their company can cause embarrassment so imagine their horror when I started photographing my food in the restaurant! Unfortunately, this did mean that I had to put away my iPhone and just enjoy my meal. So here is a picture of my chicken chat starter.


I used one of the effects on camera plus, (I haven't really used them) this one is called Miniaturize.

I Like to Eat....

Paul normally makes the sandwiches in our house especially since he retired! So as today is Father's Day I thought I would give him the day off and this also meant i could take some pictures of what I was making.

A very tasty chicken salad sandwich.


Refreshing cucumber slices


Juicy tomatoes


Inside the mayonnaise jar.


And crinkly crisps


A very scrummy lunch if the empty plates are anything to go by and later we are off out for a Father's Day Indian Nom! Nom!

All these photographs were taken with my iphone 5 using the 'camera plus' app

A new challenge

In a bid to get my mojo back I have joined in a new weekly facebook challenge, each week Joy from Picture This sets a theme, this weeks theme is "I Like To Eat....
My photographs will be a combination of dslr and iPhone but I am going to try a bit more with my dslr as it is so easy to just grab the iPhone and snap away!
I'm going for a close up theme of food where I can so here we have


Spaghetti bolognese


Technically I don't eat this but Paul's canaries seem to like it - soak seed!


And finally some Penne Pasta

So it's a start and I'm hoping to get back in the habit of blogging regularly too!
