Plug

Something to block a hole or a device to make an electrical connection.





Two plugs from me today: the first a wonderful sight as it was the signal that I'd finally reached the end of an absolutely huge pile of ironing and the second my lifeline: the mobile phone charger!

Cheese

A food made of milk curds.



All this blogging is definately making me hungry....there is a definate theme building this week....fruit, bread, cheese!

I've never really liked cottage cheese but I'm going to give it a try again!

Furry

Something that is covered in fur or has a fur like appearance.



Ahhh, my Harrods bear.
There is a little story to go with this one.....on our first Christmas together my other half got me a cuddly bear from, all very cute & I loved him. The next year he got me a different one and over the years I got one every Christmas from all different department stores as they design a different one each year. It became a sort of tradition. They are all about the same size - 12 inches tallish and half as wide so quite big!

One of the best was the year our first baby arrived, it was a matching Mummy & Baby bear from M&S - absolutely perfect!

As the collection grew to 8 or 9 I wondered where they would all live (the top of our pine wardrobe was almost full) so he decided the 10th would be the last. So last Christmas an extra special bear arrived from Harrods!

Bread

A simple food of brown or white colour.



Not quite as appetising to look at as some of the other bread posts but it still tastes quite nice & will definately help the weigh in come Sunday. I just wish I could photograph a delicious crusty baguette (and eat it!!!)

Lid

Her Space : My Space - Lid
A removable cover for the top of a container.



Stacks of lids here so spent forever choosing one. Nearly chose the Flora Light tub or our biscuit barrel but in the end decided on this beautiful silver trinket box belonging to my baby girl. It is one of her christening presents on display in our cabinet and each silver "pebble" has a hope for life: happy life, healthy life, long life, prosperous life.

Fruit

Her space : My Space today is fruit!
A sweet product from a tree or plant to eat.

Fantastic first one ever for me to do as today I re-joined Weight Watchers. I first joined 7 years ago, lost 5 stone in a year, got married 4 months later, pregnant very quickly and now baby number two is almost 14 months old I've gone back. I have a huge mountain to climb which will no doubt be covered in fruit!

So to get me started I did lots of shopping today and bought this........




















I love pineapple with gammon or jacket potato or with a salad. Normally I go for a tin but couldn't resist fresh today - & the photo looks a lot better than a tin!!!!!!!!!
