Blogiversary Giveaway and French Onion Soup

OK The number picked out of Izzys little pink hat (as worn in the snow pictures) is number 15 and looking down the comments that is Heather (with the Red Haired Girl Blog.) Email me at Mel@atripdownmemorylane.co.uk and let me have your full name and address and I will send you a little box of goodies. Still working on transferring stash from various locations around the house so not sure what I will find some nice stuff :)

I have been to work today so no exciting news to report. I might be brave and upload the slightly pathetic card I made Darren for Valentines - only trouble is I made it and it ended up a bit pink! Well it has a heart on it and it didn't look right in blue. Ho hum!

I am really starting to get annoyed at my inability to transfer files from the laptop to the PC via the wireless network. By the time I finish posting my LA pics it will be Summer!

While we were there we went on a tour of LA, Hollywood, Beverley Hills and Venice Beach. Our lunch stop was at the Farmers Market which had a whole area with loads of food stalls. Mum and I ate at the French Creperie and I had the most fabulous French Onion Soup. It was delicious. So I have found this recipe which I saw on Saturday Cooks a while back (don't laugh I often flake out on Saturday morning with breakfast and play with Izzy while watching cooking shows! Its Jean Cristophe Novelli's Onion Soup... Of course I probably won't do it right, just follow the general method and make a few adjustments! Wish me luck - I know it is quarter to nine but I am about to go cook it for my dinner!

Woohoo - thanks Mel!

I love French onion soup - might have to persuade my Daz to follow the JC Novelli recipe! (I had French Onion soup once at the restaurant up the Eiffel Tower, which was fun!)
