Laura In Wonderland..

[mavis1988]

..So where to begin?
Hey! Im Laura. I 'd love to live in my own little world, where diet food consisted of chocolate, cupcakes, pots of tea and general merryment. Its safe to say the mad hatter tea party would suit me down to a........well..tea! Alas the REAL world is a lot less wonderland, and a little more welcometotherealworld-land!

Being fairly new (ish) to minimins, it took me a while to get the hang of threads, and subscribing etc (in fact I'm still getting to grips with it). So far I have found an endless list of yummy recipes and lovely people, who are willing to help, with anyone's journey.

So I've decide to make a food diary/recipe/daily drivel blog to help myself and others, with things I'm struggling with, or information I might happen to find out that could be useful. I though it would be good to see where I'm going wrong and also were I'm going right, to see how it effects my losses.

Here's to tea party's the sliming world way!

I also made syn free cheese scones today,recipe which I found on here, they went down a treat, mam, dad AND boyfriend (who thinks eating 1 block of cheese a day is 'cutting down') even enjoyed them! So they were a massive hit and so easy to make. I will deffo be making a batch of these babies again.
