Love It or Hate It

I love it - not so much that I eat it everyday or even every week but sometimes I just need a Marmite fix.  Today is one of those days.  I have been a busy bee this morning, washing in, washing out, washing pots, hoovering, toilet cleaning duties- you get it.  I have also used the very last scrapings of my Annie Sloan paint - very watered down - to lime wash my kitchen cupboards.  They look much better.  I have also been to  Mum's and cleaned out my nephew H's guinea pigs - they  live at his Nannies and we all take care of them.  Now its time for this:-


Yum, tomato soup - tinned not homemade - and marmite on toast (with flora) to dip in - oh my goodness it is delicious.  Anyone else tried this combination?

Now I am going to do this:-



Soup, marmite on toast, feet up - ohhh yeah!

and then some more of this:-


My new hexie basket - its so cute and cost 20p



Hexing and blogging and watching Horton Hears a Who

Dyl and Betty have chosen to do this


Snuggling time 

And last but not least photographic evidence of myself hexing in public - John Lewis cafe Wednesday evening whilst waiting for Nellie and Belle.


Going now back soon got an interesting weekend coming up so more blogging to follow.

Two of us in our house hate Marmite, the other two love it. I've never seen them eat it with tomato soup though. Ahhh, Betty and Dylan have the same idea as my daughter and pooch.

I only like marmite when it's made into a drink. Bloomin heck you are doing really well with your hexies - I'm thinking I need a wicker basket now - adorable :0)
