It was the wedding anniversary that we didn't think we'd see. A second wedding anniversary is such a little thing that it only rep...

Today is beautifully sunny but there is something in the quality of the light and the feel of the air that speaks very clearly of autumn.  A...

Although it may already be receding into a happy haze of whisky and sea squalls, I did want to spend a little bit of time regaling you as to...

I should be out bowling at this precise moment in time but my recent holiday has obviously led to a reduced tolerance for the workplace as I...

Greetings from the Isle of Mull and, more specifically, the absurdly picturesque town of Tobermory. Our holiday cottage is actually located ...

Disclaimer as before: I wanted to put some notes down about my ongoing CBT sessions, primarily for my own benefit. While sometimes the conte...

I was commenting on a blog the other week and I observed that practically every Saturday I bookmark Yotam Ottolenghi's recipe column for...

I recently made the decision that I am going to move out of my current property come the end of September.  I don't know yet if my desti...

Whatever my last post may imply, it's not all doom and gloom chez Seren.  Take Saturday, for instance.  Saturday was a Very Good Day. Wh...

I wanted to put some notes down about my ongoing CBT sessions, primarily for my own benefit. While sometimes the content may sound fairly n...

I’m all about the even keel at the moment. My weight loss, over the last couple of months, has been pretty small. But, but, but. I am, a...

When I returned from my jaunting at the weekend I was met by the sad sight of two dead bananas in the fruit bowl. Not just on the turn, or ...

The sky over Leeds may be as grey as grey can be this morning, but at least, if last weekend proved to be the last of the summer proper, I...

Sometimes, when we’re dining out, D and I like to play a guessing game whereby we try and predict what the other will order. Yes, I know wh...

Our beloved J Baker’s is closed. We thought that it had looked quiet lately. But still, this was unexpected and rather sad. If ever ...

I was browsing a couple of new food blogs the other day and was struck by the utter beauty of the accompanying photography.  Damn these peop...

I have been known to “hang out” (get me with the modern parlance) on the WW message boards from time to time. Weight loss – especially when...

July. How did it get to be July? Just two more months and we reach the point of the calendar at which D and I said that we would make a fi...

Whatever the lovely Peridot may believe, J Baker's superlative restaurant in York does open occasionally.  Their opening hours do look...

We passed this very aptly named shop while wandering the streets of Stirling last week:     Amusingly named retail outlets aside, Sti...

A fairly normal routine for me this week.  I'll be freezer diving for the main constituents of most of these meals, so not an awful lo...

Yesterday was rather like the curate's egg.  There was good news (you passed your exam!  You can go ahead and destroy those stupid index...

First, a huge thank you for all those crossed fingers, toes and eyes - I passed my latest exam.  So that is two modules down, umpteen to go ...

I knew very little about Glasgow prior to visiting it.  Just that it was "Not Edinburgh".  I still don't feel like I know ver...

But not today.  Today I lost another 2.5lbs.  I should add that I successfully managed to sleep through my official weigh in - a permanent S...
