Christmas and first post

Hi and welcome to my first post. 
I have had a wonderful Christmas with the family, eating way too much good food and drinking too many Mojitos and Long Island Ice teas. My in-laws are Italian and for some reason, they tend to cook waaaaaay too much food. I'm not sure if it is an Italian thing or if it is just their thing to cook too much food.


I'm the one wearing the blue and white polka dot dress.


Just to clarify, I'm not married to my partner...yet. We have been together for six years and we do live together, but too be honest I thought that A Builder's Wife sounds much better than A Builder's Girlfriend. Besides, when we do get married, I won't need to change the name of my blog. As you can probably guess, my partner is a builder. He is also a carpenter by trade.



I was very spoilt this Christmas. The boy ordered me a Thermomix, but I don't have it as yet ;( The Thermomix is a nifty little kitchen appliance that does oh so much, and it does it easily too. Once I do receive my Thermie, I will be sure to provide you all with more detail. I also received a voucher to attend a photography on location course from my sister in law, a Pandora charm from my mother in law and tickets to the Comedy Gala from the nephews. Oh and how can I forget, way too much chocolate!






I have two beautiful fur babies. They are Maltese Cross Shih Tzu. My boy is named Alex and he is aged two and my girl is named Rain and she is aged one. They are incredibly spoilt dogs who like to go on daily walks, eat human grade meat each night and sleep on our bed. Below is a picture of Alex and Rain with my mum and nephew.







Until next time....

  2. Rhiannon, it is seriously the best kitchen device ever invented. It certainly makes cooking much more simple and easy. The fact that it can do do much, is what sold me.
