Happy New Year to everyone!!!

Ok, this is the time of year when I am really busy, 17th November Koji's birthday , 22 December George's birthday, 29th December Zangi's birthday and of course there is xmas as well as new year...so I am not functioning at all ....literally, went shopping yesterday and I spent £120.00 on bras....my heart is still very painful and unfortunately I cant return them...very good quality but that is too much to spend on bras! Anyway that is how crazy my life is.

I hope you all had a lovely Chrismas and will soon have a Happy New Year.

More in 2009. Keep well and thanks for reading my blog

My boy is 1yr old...Yepeeeeeeeeeee!

Baby who hates camera flash and he always makes funny facess when his photo is being taken....Wow! I just cant believe a year has gone by, time sure does fly when you are having fun.

Zangi's fav, banana and apple muffins, this recipe is from Annabel Carmel, I replaced carrots for bananas...absolutely yummy!

G & Z

Zangi listening to music and maybe even playing a game on computer...not good :-( way too young to be playing games on computer.

Koji eating nappy wipes...lol!

Zangi eating homemade pizza (George's recipe) this pizza is deliiiiiish! you will never eat any other pizza after eating this one, it is yummy and packed full of goodness..I am getting hungry just talking about it.

Bon fire night, we were watching the fire works from the house and George in the garden, you can tell by the confusion, Zangi scared shitless and Koji just going crazy, they dont like the noise so I think we will live bon fire night for now and revisit the idea 2 or 3 yrs from now.

Baby eating Daddy's homemade pizza and not wanting his pic taken ;-) love you son and happy 1st Birtday again.

Random pic...G and Zangi

Happy 1st Birthday my darling

Mummy and Daddyy oh and big brother love you so much...xxx ...more pics of Koji to come.

My Dear friend Yvonne. Looking good babe!

Half of a Yellow Sun

My father in law bought me this book (Half of a Yellow Sun) about a year ago and I never really got to read it and I am trying to read at least 7 pages before I sleep, very interesting so far but the names are just something else, it is written by a Nigerian authour Chimanda Ngozi Adichie, (In the 1960s Nigeria) It got a lot of raving reviews by the daily mail, richard&judy reading club etc but the names are just doing my head in O!....I have to finish it as it will be the only book I have read the whole of this year...how sad is that?!!! And this is just making me sad because all my books are in storage, I love having my books on the shelves so I can just pick and choose...know wot I mean.

The weather is rubbish today like most days in Winter, Koji and I have really bad coughs and Zangi is running a riot staying at home... so I am thinking we are going to try baking some of Hannah's delish muffins and then later in the afternoon we can do some painting. My son is quite an artist, anyone interested in some art work, lemme know (I am his agent as well as his manager)...yes! Keeping it in the la familia.

Have a fab day where ever you are in the world.

Blogger lashes out!!!

My Dear friends and family that visit my blog...this has absolutely nothing to do with you... and I really do appreciate that you visit my blog, this entry is for certain somebodies and I am so sorry that I have had to lower myself to this level but I had no choice as this is how low they really are.

I have a draft entry that I am probably going to publish this evening when I get a chance and the kids are asleep. Apparently there are some B & W who dont know what the hell a blog is so that entry really is for them , I am explaining in lay man term what it is and why I write and why they should never visit my blog if it is not to their taste...they are a million other blogs out there and if you dont like mine, leave! (You know who are...and you have been questioning and asking and its eating you and yet you still come back for more....! Dont bother yourselves my dears just find something that you like elsewhere and please read the disclaimer. Kapish!
