Like me, I am sure you are huge fans of irony. So here I was, just preparing for a verbal outpouring of interestingness and wild, flamboyant ponderings when I notice that the clever, keyword content-driven Amazon adverts at the bottom right of the page are full of BT phones. Very clever guys. I moan about BT on my blog and I end up giving them advertising space.

So what did I learn and do since last I dribbled on in a verbal fashion?

Well, in diabetic-friendly cookery news I learned that Gram flour is flour made from ground chick peas and is a good replacement flour for me to use. I also learned that you can’t buy Apple & Pear puree for love nor money anywhere in the Plymouth area. I came ridiculously close to buy Apple & Pear puree babyfood but thought better of it. So the fruit flan with wholemeal pastry wasn’t perfect - barely a 5/10 in fact but I made it all myself so there.

My flapjacks are now the stuff of legend in the Buxton household. Despite making them for my dieting sister, the whole brood polished them off in two days. It’s nice to be useful.

Oh yes, the whole cooking thing today was conducted at a caffeine-induced double-time thanks to my accidental use of full caffeine coffee twice this morning. If I am lucky, I may have calmed down by tomorrow afternoon which will be at about the same time that my wholemeal pastry makes it through my digestive system. A healthy bowel is a wonderful thing but it’s barely worth sitting down in there. My reading is really suffering.

OK. I finally caught up. There are gaps, mostly due to work being a bit predictable and routine these past few months. Hopefully I can be a bit more regular with my postings from now on. Hear that work colleagues? Be interesting and provoking and remember to smile…and give your permission of course. Thanks to a recent Email at work I should point out to my senior colleagues that all work photos posted are never done so without the express permission of those involved. Ok, so Hayley isn’t too happy about it but she hasn’t had a close up…yet.
