Deck the halls

We put our Tree up yesterday. Mr Tulip got called out to Lancaster to go and help those poor people who's homes were flooded. I couldn't quite get into the Christmas spirit of it thinking about all the poor people that would probably be homeless this Christmas due to these floods.

So I just put a tree up in the living room, I usually put one in the dining room and the hall. I will send the money I would have spent to a relief fund that I am sure will be set up soon.

This is the result a tasty health vegetarian Bolognese

Travels

November 2015

We have been to Corralejo in Fuerteventura, and I have to say after travelling to all the canary islands this is my favourite of the islands. There was so much to do and lots of lovely restaurants and bars to try every night.

July 2015

In July we went to Zakynthos in Greece
One of our favourite Islands and stayed at the lovely Family Inn in Argasi. Its such a lovely unspoilt resort with plenty of bars and restaurants and only short stroll from Zante town, where you can sit and watch the yachts come into port.

February 2015

In February we were lucky enough to go to Cuba for my birthday, And it didn't disappoint it was exactly how i imagined it. We spent four days in Havana which was amazing.
