Life on the Avenue

This blog was originally started to track our progress as we regenerated a derelict Victorian house in Dublin. We turned an old crumbling ruin in to our dream house! If you wish to read through the trials and tribulations of the house build it is best to start at the oldest blog post and read in date order. The blog then evolved in to being all about my life in Dublin, Ireland and then life in Malaga, Spain with artist "PIGSY" and now back in Dublin I hope you enjoy reading it!

All chocolated out....

After Easter and a LOT of chocolate it is back to my soup diet. Today I made a big pot of veggie soup which I will take with me to work all week for lunch.

I oven roasted peppers, onions, carrots and sweet potatoes while cooking broccoli in the stock. It all gets added in to the pot and blitzed up. If it is too thick extra water can be added - or even a tin if tomatoes. Delicious!

I'm also trying to eat more protein and less processed carbs so I had a salmon fillet with lemon pepper for my dinner. I'm on a 2 month countdown to when I will be back in my bikini in Key West, Florida. Woo hoo!!
