And So It Begins

Oven-baked Chicken in Maple Barbecue Sauce - tasty!
Another week that is :) Which ultimately is good as it brings me one step closer to going on holiday and pay day, but tiresome because it's 5 days till the weekend, when I am off for a girly weekend away to the east of England.
It's the usual Monday stuff for me then, giving the house a clean and the like, and finding something exciting to cook for tea, as well as doing some stuff I need to catch up on work wise.
After considerable trawling of the net, I finally settle upon doing Oven-baked Chicken in Maple Barbecue Sauce which was quick and easy to prepare, but does take about 50 minutes to cook. It was quite nice actually, and quite similar to a recipe my Mum does (though for some reason Mum's always tastes better).
So upon deciding what we're having for tea I then nip out to pick up various things that I need for the recipe which we don't have, and whilst I'm at it I pick up a Fathers Day card for my Dad, and some Piriton for Phil, which usefully was on a 3 for 2 deal in Boots, meaning Phil should be stocked up of anti-sneeze gubbins for at least a week! ;)

The evening is devoted to eating (naturally) and we then pop out to do the weekly shop since we didn't have time to do it yesterday. I then get my daily Sim City fix while Phil watches some TV and eventually I shimmy into bed after my eyes start to burn from staring at the monitor.
P.S I'd just like to mention the disturbing nickname I seem to have acquired from one of my friends - you know who you are! Apparently I am now legally known as "Little Bo" - a character from the Fimbles children's TV show. And no it's not because I'm pink and stripy, carry around a back pack and have a Busy Book, but more to do with the fact I have a welsh accent - WELSH????? I sound as welsh as the next english person!
