Just another wee update

Hello, how you have you guys been ? 
Sorry it's been a while since I last blogged, tweeted or Facebook well everything really. 
I do have a valid reason for all that I promise, I have been hauled up under a duvet with a hot water bottle for 3 weeks things haven't been that fun apart from the odd day out when I've had enough energy. So I do apologise for my lack of everything I just thought I'd update you all since I felt up to writing. 
It's ok it's nothing to do with my FOP so that's great but on the other hand it's not so great. I don't really have much to complain about as there is a lot more people way worse off than I am. 
I have had these tummy problems for years now at least 4-5 years I guess. As of yet we don't know the cause of it I'm a mystery!! Along with migraines and lack of energy. Thank goodness for smoothies, tea and honey that's been my basic diet for the last few weeks. 
I thought I was feeling better but after cooking up a family dinner on Saturday by the Sunday I was back in bed and have been since. 
I tend to get a wee bit overly ambitious when I start to feel better and end up back at square one but hopefully by the end of the week I will feel back to my usual self. 

I have soo much thing to share with you guys. Lots of amazing ingredients and products I just need to photography everything. 
Both for here and peaches and rose. 

I need to also designs a logo for here as I feel that I need one, I have an lovely idea for that so keep your eyes peeled. 

Also too try and cheer me up my lovely mamma have started to decorate my soon to be prop/office/beauty room I will show you guys once its finished. 

On another note my mamma is going in for an Operation on Sunday so please feel free to send your love and good wishes for her please. 

Emailing is going to be a really long process as I have an inbox full to sort out.. I need some one to come sort me out and get through the mountain.

Recipe: Preserved Lemons

How pretty is this jar of sunshine ?

Fact of the day: Preserved lemons is a staple in Moroccan, Indian and West African cuisine.


I feel silly calling this a recipe as its not really a recipe. All you need are two pretty simple ingredients; Lemon and Sea Salt. 



Ingredient: 

  • 1 litre resealable  
  • 11 Smallish Lemons
  • Sea Salt 


Method: 

  1. First you will need to sterilise your jar and set aside.
  2. Slice 5 of your lemons in half and cut a cross shape into each half 3/4 the way down. Make sure the lemon is still intacted. 
  3. Juice the remaining 6 lemons and set aside. 
  4. Fill each lemon half with a teaspoon of salt and gently squeeze shut. Place each one into the jar. 
  5. Once the jar is full fill to the top with the lemon juice and a few tablespoons of salt. 
  6. Cover the lemons with a grease proof circle and seal the jar shut. 


Notes: 
Give the lemons a gentle shake every once in a while. 
Best after 1 month or longer.
