Let's Go To Bettys!

 Whenever anything needs celebrating in the Forcella household, we cry "Let's Go To Bettys!"

So as it was our 7th wedding anniversary, that exactly where Mr. Forcella and I went for brunch!

The Secret Garden

If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.

Playing Hooky

Well, strictly speaking, I wasn't playing hooky - I took the afternoon off work to spend some time organising the move our of our little city flat back to our proper home in the "country" (well, Hebden Bridge isn't a city!).

Happy Hair Days

I've recently switched from blonde to brunette, however I didn't fully commit to the dark side and opted for the "ombre" (dip-dyed) look, with slightly lighter ends.

Life is Like Lasagne....

Life is like a good lasagne - lots of layers, a sprinkling of cheese and best served with great friends and lots of wine!!

I like a cheesy analogy, but I prefer lasagne on my plate and I'm sure you do too - so here's my recipe* for a quick, easy & tasty lasagne from scratch.

*Because this is how I make it and not an actual recipe from a book, quantities of ingredients aren't exact - you'll need to use a little judgement when you're cooking this, but don't worry, it can't go horribly wrong!
