What’s Easter without an egg hunt?

My five year old twins look forward to their annual Easter Egg Hunt. Hubby and I like to hide a mixture of decorated hard-boiled eggs, chocolate eggs and other Easter novelties around our back garden. However, living in Scotland, we have once had to resort to Plan B and hide the eggs around the house instead, because it was a wet and windy Easter Sunday.

I’m taking my girls to see the X Factor Live in Glasgow this evening.  (For my Non-UK readers, X Factor is a TV program akin to American Idol.  In fact, Mr Compliments (AKA Simon Cowell) is giving up his spot on American Idol to take X Factor to the USA.)  This will be the girls’ first pop concert, and I am hoping that they are not too young to enjoy it!  (They are only 5 1/2 years old!  *blushes*)

Apologies to anyone who stopped by yesterday when I was experiencing some technical difficulties on my site. I think (hope!!) these problems have now been resolved.

I’ve just come across a fun meme at Supah Mommy called Post-It Note Tuesday.

This week’s MckLinky theme is to share a favourite recipe. I thought I’d share one of my favourite dishes with you. It’s Pasta Al ‘Arrabiata with a morish meaty twist! I love adding smoked sausages to a hot and spicy Arrabiata sauce. You can use whatever pasta takes your fancy. I like to use fusilli or penne.

I’ve decided to start a new meme – Thankful Thursday - where participants blog about what they are thankful for in the current day / week.

First thing this morning, I wasn’t feeling very thankful. I was feeling very tired and in desperate need of a long lie. When I eventually dragged myself out of my bed and peered outside, all I could see was a swirling white blizzard!

The MckLinky Blog Hop theme for this Monday is “Snow Pics and Stories“. With many places getting their “once every hundred years snow”, MckLinky thought it would be fun to see our snow pics and hear about the snow in our areas.

I live in Scotland, UK, and we have experienced our coldest winter in more than a generation.  The British media has dubbed this winter as “The Big Freeze“.
