This recipe is rather yummy. It is roasted root vegetables (onion, beetroot, parsnip) cooked and then cooked for a bit longer in a sauce of balsamic vinegar and sugar. You then wrap a sheet of filo pastry over the top and tuck in. When it is taken out of the oven you turn it over and add goats cheese. </div>

I have started crocheting again after a break because my hands have been hurting. I still can't do very much in one go, which is a right pain as i would love to sit for hours doing it. Its so relaxing, theres so many things i want to make and its a great craft to do while still getting on with day to day things like being a passenger in a car, watching t.v and sitting in a cafe.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't make New years resolutions anymore. For the last few years i have chosen a word to live by instead. I started of in 2011 with Twinkle (A year to shine and have fun), Last year i chose Simple (<a href="http://lissylouandthe2littleboys.blogspot.co.uk/2012/01/live-simply.html">A year to live simply)</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To twinkle and to live simply are definitely worth carrying on every year.</div>

What are your favourite beauty products? My all time favourite moisturiser is Palmers cocoa butter. I use lots of others but this is a long term fave. I cannot live without batiste dry hair shampoo and i really like body shops coconut hair shine. Liz earles cleanse and polish products are fab and soap and glorys body scrub is my favourite that i've tried. I like clinques moisture surge face moisturiser and my long term most loved perfume is L'occitanes cherry blossom:<br />

<u><b>What i've been up to:</b></u></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Last week started off with tea and a kitkat for breakfast. Anyone else bite off the ends, suck the tea through like a straw and then eat the wonderfully gooey biscuit?</div>

An instagram lady had visited The Hambledon in Winchester and put up a picture of these cute deers. Well, you know my obsession with deers. So, i couldn't resist and bought these two lovelies online. Talking of deer obsession, i have also bought 4 more deers on ebay from the USA. I hope they arrive safely.</div>

I discovered Maldon high street with my Mum. I have been to Maldon before, but to the park. Never to the High street. Oh my goodness, i loved it!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There were so many interesting independant shops and lovely cafes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I particularly liked a cafe and vintage shop called Truly scrumptious:</div>

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The shop upstairs was gorgeous and reasonably priced. I bought a yellow floral teaset, an embroidered tablecloth, a crochet blanket and a pretty picture. I also found an embroidered traycloth in a charity shop.</div>

We went to a lovely Christmas fair in the town hall. I spotted this lovely Mary Poppins necklace that my mum bought me. Very apt, seeing that i love Mary Poppins and my eldest son had been asking me the words to Supercalfragalistic a few nights before.</div>

I have a fair few deers now. Someone on Instagram asked me to photo them altogether. Aren't they lovely? They really make me smile. Two of them were my nans and most of the others are second hand from charity shops or ebay. I was very excited when the art editor at Mollie Makes started following me and asked if she could tweet my pic.</div>

He arrived early and we set off in the car. Its about a 45 minute drive away. We got stuck in traffic...lots and lots of traffic. After 45 minutes we had only got about 10 minutes from the house. We were stuck on a roundabout and could see exactly the same van at a standstill on the main road we needed to go on. We decided we would never make it in time so we turned round, cancelled our table and ordered a pick up papa johns pizza. I was really dissapointed as i have been to the spring fair and know how wonderful the items for sale are.</div>

My littlest boy was a complete sweetie and said that i could watch Mary Poppins to cheer me up (I had been trying to get the boys to watch it after the eldest asked the words to Supercalafragalistic without much success) The hubbie fell asleep but the boys (even though they wouldn't admit it) were glued to it!!! </div>

We had a really lovely day on Saturday, <a href="http://www.willowsfarmvillage.com/">here</a> With our good friends and their beautiful daughter who is 9 months old. It was such a pleasure to take part in her first trip to see santa. She is such a lovely happy little girl. It was nice to have baby cuddles.</div>

Obviously there are the 'I needs' in life that are important...family, food, shelter etc etc </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but what are your fun needs? The things that if they were gone you would be pretty upset about?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are some of mine:</div>

Bambis - i have always liked deers. I am not sure why... maybe it was from my late Nan who also liked them. I have some of my Nans deers and i also have some vintage ones like these below. I love them, they make me smile, my obsession has been growing lately:</div>

I don't eat them a lot, but i do love salt and vinegar crisps - ideally really strong ones that make your mouth twist and where you can lick the last strong bits off your fingers. Hmmm especially crushed down in a sandwich too.</div>

Friends - If there was only one show i was allowed to watch it would be Friends. I can watch it over and over and still laugh. Every day i can say a Friends quote!!! and relate to it. I would say i am a mix of all the girls - but mostly a combo of Monica and Phoebe. My hubbie is mostly like Ross and Chandler.</div>

The long term readers of my blog will know my obsession of hot chocolate!! Well tea has taken over!! I do love a hot choccie still every now and then (Costas being my fave) but this last year i have become an avid tea drinker. Ideally i have it fairly weak, with the tiniest pinch of sugar and oat milk. I NEED my tea in the morning now!!</div>

I couldn't resist buying these cute little Lindt bears (i was a bit disappointed however that they were hollow and not filled) I put two up on my printer trays in the lounge to see how long it would take the boys to notice. My youngest spotted them 24hrs later.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
My wardrobe sort out was very successful!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was very excited to fit back into lots of clothes from a few years ago too!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had read a tip a while ago, about putting all your clothes in your wardrobe with the hangers the wrong way round. Everytime you wear a garment, put the hanger back in the right way. If in a year, there are still hangers the wrong way round, you haven't worn that item, so.....chuck it!!!!!!!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>What's on your bedside table:</i></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
An Ikea lamp, a retro black phone, a cream radio, a picture of my husband and i on our wedding day, a glass and crystal coaster, and a copy of Eat, pray, love.</div>

<i>Happiest memories:</i></div>

Holidays with my family and weekends away with my husband always bring back nice memories.</div>

<i>Favourite toy as a child:</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have fond memories of a red desk. I would play schools or shops there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Your perfect holiday destination:</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Somewhere warm with lots of places to visit and explore but also chances to relax by a pool.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Spring or Autumn:</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both! they are my favourite months.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love Spring as it is so pretty and just starting to warm up. I love Autumn because, again, it is very pretty, it is cooling down from Summer, and its a chance to get cosy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>What's your motto:</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Happiness is not a destination. It's a way of life.</div>

<i>If you had a time machine what year would you like to land in:</i></div>

<i>Roast dinner or fish and chips:</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A veggie roast - nothing beats it. Although it does have to include cauliflower cheese and creamy swede plus lashings of veggie gravy.</div>

<i>What makes you belly laugh:</i></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Its normally a one off thing that can't be repeated. Like a story i've heard, or something funny i've seen.</div>

<i>Favourite outfit past or present:</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My favourite outfits are just sweatpants and a jumper - its what i always change in to as soon as i get home. I like to be comfy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My favourite outfit that i feel good in would probably be dark jeans, heels and a nice flattering top.</div>

<li>Eating peanut butter and jam on toast</li>
<li>Mollie Makes christmas book being delivered - its quite nice. I got it on offer when i ordered<a href="http://dottieangel.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/a-granny-chic-book.html"> Granny Chic (I cannot wait for that to be delivered later this month)</a></li>
<li>I took part in an instagram swap. The lovely<a href="http://lovearamble12.blogspot.co.uk/"> Gem</a> lives very close to me. She popped round so we could swap parcels. Thanks so much Gem. I love all my gifts, especially the little picture - very thoughtful. (The little rhyme is one that i love that Gem saw down the side of this blog)</li>
<li>My Mother in law had sent my hubbie home the previous weekend with choc chip shortbread (my fave) and strawberries and cream - so last week i indulged!</li>
<li>I dragged myself out to do a food shop (its amazing how this cold just zapped my energy). I popped in to the charity shop thats recently just opened by the supermarket and bought myself 3 balls of wool for £1.99. I hope to create quite a stash of wool so i can make a big colourful blanket.</li>
<li>We often have fajita Friday in our house, this week it was fajita tuesday and wednesday :)</li>
<li>I have been trying to lose a bit of weight this year(i think i've done pretty well, as you can see from this blog - i am not strict!!!! I just have smaller portions now - i could never really diet - i love food!!!, i have lost a stone since April. What better way to celebrate getting down to a new stone number on Thursday than with a double kitkat???</li>
<li>Friday was my first day out - i was feeling much better so went to have breakfast with my Mum and then later lunch with two friends. I tried to lift my mood by wearing my nice boots (skinny jeans - yay!! i finally feel good enough to wear them) and got out one of my cute cath kidston bags.</li>
<li>We had tickets for Shakedown festival in Brighton - to be honest i was still feeling a bit rough - but we headed down anyway.</li>
<li>We were upgraded to a beautiful suite!!</li>
<li>We had a good time at the festival - i paced myself! But i went back to the hotel achey and with a banging head.</li>
<li>The next day the sun was shiny in Brighton, we had a cooked brekkie at the hotel, met up with our friends for a while on the pier and then hubbie and i went to look around my favourite shop (snoopers paradise) and went to the wonderful choccywoccydodah cafe. I had an amazing praline milkshake and the hubbie had a hot choc and a brownie (which he couldn't finish).</li>
<li>We went back to my in laws for a roast with all the family and cuddles with my lovely boys who had been staying there.</li>

<li>Puting together an Autumn themed reading basket in the lounge for the boys.</li>
<li>Fighting through the rain, always on the school run!! But doing it in colour - i love my pink mac and daisy brolly.</li>
<li>Drinking tea and reading magazines.</li>
<li>Having a lovely lunch <a href="http://www.hockleyandhawkwell.com/bull-inn-hockley.html">here</a> with a couple of friends.</li>
<li>Presents i got my nephew - he loves dinosaurs - i was so happy to find a dino card with his age on and dino wrapping paper - i hope he liked them.</li>
<li>My hubbie went out for the night with his brother, so i had a nice dinner with my boys - pizza with extra goats cheese - mmmm and then tea and choc chip cookies.</li>
<li>Sticking with my youngest - lovely winnie the pooh sticker book.</li>
<li>Driving past the gorgeous houses of our town including the gorgeous dutch cottage.</li>
<li>Feeling oh so rough so getting my son to make cakes for his bake sale (i had plans to make football cupcakes and another cherry and almond cake but just couldn't do it, so luckily i had a Tom and Jerry cake mix) and then dragging myself to my sons senior school to be open evening.</li>
<li>Being so addicted to watching 24. Me and the hubbie have just finished season 5 on netflix. It was soooo good - we have been up far too late ("lets just watch one more")</li>
<li>Taking the boys to school and then coming home and falling on the sofa to watch t.v and films - honestly this is the worst cold i've had for a while.</li>
<li>Watching The help - amazing film!!!!</li>
<li>Spending the whole weekend in (The boys and hubbie still went out), mt other half did a good job of looking after me though and even made an attempt at doing the washing (see above)!!!</li>
<li>The boys looked extremely cute painting their outdoor playhouse with their dad.</li>
<li>Listening (and smiling) to my youngest laying on the other sofa talking to 'go deigo go' on the tele.</li>
<li>Feeling cold then hot, wrapping up in blankets and cushions, then throwing them off again.</li>
<li>Getting fed up of watching tele!!!!!! i put the great british bake off on for the first time - actually quite enjoyed it. Will probably carry on watching now.</li>
<li>Feeling annoyed that i had to cancel a lunch out with some IG ladies :(</li>
<li>Making myself peanut butter and jam on toast whilst i knew the boys and hubbie were enjoying a roast at my in laws. Thankfully, they brought me back a roast!!!!!!</li>
<li>A spot of crochet.</li>
<li>Loving the Flash vintage cleaners.</li>
<li>Drinking so much honey, lemon and cinnamon drinks - i'm now completely sick of them!!!</li>
</ul>

I love Autumn:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>Cosy sweaters</li>
<li>Plenty of hot choccie and tea</li>
<li>blankets and books</li>
<li>not so hot that you sweat, not so cold that you freeze</li>
<li>choosing which fingerless gloves to wear first</li>
<li>thick socks</li>
<li>candles</li>
<li>colouful leaves</li>
<li>conker collecting</li>
<li>forest walks</li>
<li>cinnamon, especially on fruit crumbles</li>
<li>halloween costumes</li>
<li>getting the boys in their pj's and taking them down to the seafront to wrap up in blankets with hot chocolate and stories and watch the fireworks in the distance</li>
<li>memories of me and the hubbies first meeting, first getting together and getting engaged - all in autumn</li>
<li>new pj's</li>
<li>thicker dressing gowns</li>
<li>warming porridge</li>
<li>soup with thick buttered bread</li>

After reading the delightful magazine 'The simple things', it got me thinking about my own favourite simple things.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my list. I'd love to see yours.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(Comment on this post, or blog about it)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;">The cool side of the pillow.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">A bike ride.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Bloomer bread with lots of real butter.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">A cup of tea in a quiet home once i've dropped the boys at school.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Not watching the clock. (I never wear a watch)</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Pilates</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Sitting outside with friends and family on a warm evening.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Long breakfasts on the weekend.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Sitting by the window in my favourite comfy chair with a book or magazine.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">A long walk somewhere pretty.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">A candle lit bath.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Watching an episode of Friends.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Taking photos.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Learning a new craft.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Baking a cake.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Cuddles on the sofa with my boys and hubby watching a film.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">A wander around a carboot sale/ charity shop/ antique shop by myself.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">A glass of water after exercise or being in the heat.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Finding a nice spot, parking our bottoms on a bench or the grass and watching the world go by.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The smell as you pass a fish and chip shop. (Probably better than actually eating them)</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Feeling the warmth of the sun stream through the window.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Leaving jobs until they really need to be done (What's the rush?)</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">A cosy dressing gown in winter (I can highly recommend the extremely soft Per Una ones from M&S)</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Picking up beautiful coloured autumn leaves, acorns and conkers (Collect tons of conkers and put them all over your house to deter spiders - it really works!! you do need lots though)</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Discovering beautiful buildings and churches.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Lighting a candle and saying a prayer in a church.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Popping bubble wrap.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Browsing in a book shop or library.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Playing pooh sticks.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Listening to Jazz.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Visiting a farmers Market.</li>
</ul>
