30th March When I stopped.....and FSM # 28, 29 and 30

This week has been my challenge about what we can miss if we don't look around and take a photo of those moments as life rushes by...
As I was making the bed the other day I looked up at the bear I gave Peter many years ago, this is what hisT shirt says.....

Well it has been a busy week but now quieter over the weekend.
Here are my photos from this week.

Tuesday was DGS 2 and his Mum's birthday, Matt was 15 and much taller than his Mum! Also my FSM #27 photo for PAIR

 We went and saw Zac's yr 3/4 school production on Wed evening

 grabbed the camera one evening as I was cooking to catch the sunset, sadly just missed the best: photo

Babysitting duties on Thursday night, thank goodness for having a camera in my mobile phone or I would have missed this shot!

A Good Friday?

This story is worth a read... I had just cleaned the houseand then disaster struck with man in the kitchen who decided to make marmalade like you do on Good friday before having a meal for 8 !!  Well it didn't set so he asked for help, I went over the recipe on the tin....instead of 3/4pint of water he put 3 to 4 pints of water LOL...so an hour later (with visit by him to supermarket) 4 more tins, 6 bags of sugar and an overflowing preserving pan plus the largest saucepan we have we are in production for a supermarket!! Note I am now in on the marmalade making!!

Anyway all the jars we have are filled plus many plastic containers til we get more jars and are sitting on shelves in the garage  I then set to to prep my meal and finally sat down for an hour at 6pm...shattered!
Here is what I served (courtesy of Sainsburys) lamb chops on a butterbean pesto base with cabbage, toms and green beans

and my Easter tree to remind me it is Easter weekend regardless of this bitterly cold and dark day

FSM catch up
