If we met for coffee
If we met for coffee, I’d say with a sense of relief just what perfect timing it is, since I’m currently all out of my favourite dark-roast beans at home and have been relying on No Name instant (blech!) for the past couple of days to get my morning jump-start. Better than nothing, but I’m […]

Tangled T-Day No. 1
Welcome to my first-ever Tangled T-Day! OK, so it’s not really all THAT different from my previous Tangled Tuesday series – I’ve just decided to tweak the process a little (check out this post if you’d like more details), and to mark the transition I’m re-starting my numbering back at the beginning. Hope you enjoy […]

#MicroblogMondays 123 – Fresh Start
This morning I (along with a goodly portion of the population, I’m betting!) stepped gingerly onto the scale for the first time in a few weeks to face up to the damage done after a (mostly planned) spree of holiday indulgence. I nervously peeked through my fingers to see the horrifying results, and… actually, it […]

New Year’s “Not Resolutions” 2017
Happy New Year to you, Happy 50th Birthday to me, and welcome to my first (annual?) New Year’s “Not Resolutions” post at Alphabet Salad! Why NOT resolutions, you might ask?

The 50 by 50 Project: The Final Update
You might recall that toward the end of 2015 I shared my 2016 Word of the Year – Progress – and followed up at the start of January with an explanation of a project I’d conceived to help me put the word into action in the new year. My introduction to The 50 by 50 […]

My 2017 Word of the Year + Linkup
Happy (almost) New Year, Alphabet Salad readers! Since we’re very quickly approaching the end of 2016 (and considering all the rotten stuff that took place in our world this past year, I say moving on to a fresh new one can’t happen soon enough), it’s time for me to share my 2017 word of the […]

Photo A Day Challenge – December 1-18, 2016
This month I am early in terms of sharing my Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge pics for December, the rather pathetic reason being that I got off-track partway through and was never actually able to get caught up. Oops! I did have a great start to the month, though, with not one but […]
