Wednesday - Our first naked dinner night

Ok, so I have fished you into this one! I have no idea how many different people visit our blog but it seems like there are a few of you.....

This is the only begging blog I am going to write, but I need sponsorship for my running the Edinburgh Marathon in May so please help!

For the last month I have hardly done any running at all as I seem to constantly be picking up the injuries and I have to be really careful if I want to get around the full 26.2 miles in one piece! My target time in 3hr's 45 mins, but as this is my first marathon, I am hardly training and I have only been running for a year after over 10 years of doing jack all exercise it's seems unlikely that I'll do it but I want to aim high!!

I have committed £550 to Breast Cancer care and I don't to let them down, so even if you can spare only a single pound please donate here.

Thanks people!! Joe x

PS. If you sponsor me £50 I can provide pictures of me eating dinner naked if that's what it really takes.

PPS. Here is dinner for the past 2 nights;

Monday's Chicken and Noodle Broth

I won't deny it, I'm getting pretty nifty with this butchering lark.  We bought a chicken this weekend for Saturday's curry, and I took it apart so we had leg meat for the curry, breasts for another meal, and all the bones for a yummy stock.  This stock slow cooked to make it crystal clear and it seemed only right to make it star of the show in a chicken noodle broth with sweet corn and spring onions.  It was super tasty and felt pretty virtuous afterwards.  Now we just need to get over the biscuit addiction....

Sunday - A Salmon and Avocado Salad

Right now we are looking at exciting things to do in Seville on our honeymoon, so this is a quick one! - choosing an amazing hotel is such a chore! After a disappointing day of football on Sunday, Jo cheered me up with this fresh and colourful salmon and avocado salad with lots of other treats thrown in....apart from the chicken on Friday, we had a relatively healthy week which was good (apart from the biscuits - obviously).
