20 Random Facts Tag.. a while ago I was tagged in a “20 Random Facts” post by someone else so thought as a way of getting to know me, below are a list of things you don’t really need to know and may make you think I’m a bit bizarre..

Hashtag Food Friday… well, Tuesday as I ended up having an unexpected Friday night!
A couple of weeks ago I Instagram’d a photo of a meal that I’d cooked after saying I was trying to eat healthier and a few people said how nice it looked and what I used to make it so I thought I’d kick off the blog talking about something we all love… food food food.

We had some chicken in the fridge that was due to go out of date in a few days and some left over veg that I had from a stir fry the night before so this seemed like the way to go and ended up producing a rather tasty dish of Herby Chicken with mashed potato and mixed veg…..
