Foodie on a break

This weekend, I took a break!

A break from blogging any everything surrounding it to be precise.

Mum came over on friday and we went to the garden center for some plants outside and inside. We also went to Ikea for a small cabinet I wanted. Sadly, it was sold out. She spend the night here and the day after, she went to my brother.

Hubby wanted a slow, no driving, weekend, because he had driven loads last week, so we stayed in for the weekend. He did lots of gaming and I did a little gaming too. Mostly on the 3DS though with some Pokemon Ultra Moon breeding and trading.

I was low on energy and so I decided to give myself a break. I didn't do a thing about blogging, nor did I reply to comments. Honestly, my pc was off most of the weekend.

Our saturday night dinner disaster did not help me gain any more energy, it only helped to drain it even further.

See, I had wanted to make a meat pie for hubby, because we saw it on tv and he said "I want that!". So I tried making it. It went horribly wrong. The dough from the recipe was a disaster and the filling was way too wet. Against better judgement I put the darn thing into the oven anyway and once I took it out, the filling was still too wet. When trying to free it from its spring form, it was partly collapsing already and once I cut into it, the whole thing fell apart.

The taste wasn't that good either, so we ate half of it (because we were hungry and it was our dinner) and threw out the other half.

What a waste!

So from now on, no more meat pies. Once was enough. If I want to go fancy, I'll stick with stew or quiche.

So that got my spirits down! It resulted in me not really wanting to cook yesterday. Luckily, we have a big freezer and plenty of leftovers, so we had good dinner anyway.

Today is the start of the monthly blegh / low energy days. It's starting off great with a headache to boot. So... surprise, surprise, I'm extending my break! Just writing this to give a heads up and explain why I haven't been responding.

Don't worry, I'll be fine in a few days and I will respond to all of your comments. It just might take me a few days. I'm not ignoring you, I'm just on a break.

Hope you are all doing well!
