Good entertainment.

Last night me and my husband went to the cinema to see a free preview of The Silver Linings Playbook. He got two free tickets from an internet site, and off we went! 

Here's the poster for it:

Picture source here.

It was good film, a bit heavy in places but well acted. I loved Robert De Niro as the father, and the two main characters were played well by Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence. Me and DH have also read the book, which we'd definitely recommend - it really makes you think about life and positivity in what we have, rather than what we don't. 

Have you seen any films lately? Anything you would recommend?

Lazy weeks and dark nights.

Well, the weather this half term hasn't been that great, but wouldn't expect anything less to be honest! 

I still have indulged in various things, such as:

Peanut butter and blueberry jam on toast

More peanut butter - YUM! 

Healthy lunches that can be savored rather than eaten in a rush whilst trying to do something else at the same time! 

Decadent breakfast that can be eaten as slowly as you like - cinnamon porridge with warmed berries and - you guessed it! - peanut butter

I make this using value oats and these berries:

which are about £1.29 I think? So it's a very frugal breakfast, but tastes amazing. Try it! 

I also popped to our local farm shop and got some tasty wholemeal bread:

which was very nice dunked into some soup. I also got:

a massive jar of peanut butter with no added sugar - trying to watch our processed food intake at the moment and within that added sugar, so this was a good find! 

And finally, I have nearly finished this book:

which has been an enjoyable read - it's light hearted and funny and just what you want as a holiday read. 

Phew! It's been a good week.
