And two more this morning!

Winds of Fury by Mercedes Lackey - Part three of a trilogy. Part two is on its way and part one is yet to be secured! So quick and easy to read but Lackey has created a world that manages to keep me interested and hooked.

500 Recipes for Budget Meals edited by Susan O'Loughlan - Cookbook from the 1990's. Lots of interesting recipes that dont cost a fortune in ingredients. I am buoyed up by my cooking successes thus far including the amazingly quick and easy golden syrup pudding and the healthier minestrone soup! I made bread yesterday by hand, nothing better to get out all frustrations than ten minutes of kneading pliant bread dough.

I also started Wolf and Iron, its very good. I only intended on reading for 15 minutes this morning but ended up reading for almost an hour!

In other news I appear to now be a comfortable UK size 16 in clothes, which is astonishing considering I was close to a 20 less than a month and a half ago. No diet required just an international house move and the removal of artificial hormones (the Implanon implant) from my body. I am now wearing clothes I havent been able to wear for 3.5 years and am even in my size 16 jeans that I stroked longingly for years in Switzerland!
