The rules are to state 7 things about yourself and then to pass this on to 7 other bloggers.
1. I’m terrified of heights
2. I’m a grumpy cow at times (hubs would say a lot of the time!)
3. I love to read, I’m a proper bookworm!
4. My favourite colour, red
5. I have an obsessive personality (means I get addicted to things!)

I have to say what I do with all my leftovers from making bento. Hmmm, need to get my thinking cap on!
Well, lets see…
Fruit peelings either get scoffed by the dog or they go into the compost bin, same with veg peelings.
Bread crusts get put in the freezer to make bread crumbs.
Leftover cheese gets put back in the fridge for next day or it goes into hubs sandwich (he’s not into bento)
Same with meat scraps.
Cutouts from carrots or any other veggies go in a tub in the freezer. These bits are then thrown into soups, stews casserole etc. It’s common to find stars and flower shaped carrot cut outs in your veg soup!
Leftover rice goes into the freezer as another portion and then used for fried rice dishes.
To be honest, I don’t really have a lot of scraps as I’m not into charaben, neither is small sprog, so any waste is minimal.
Of course, there are times when little scraps just don’t go anywhere except straight into my mouth!
So who to tag next…….. Judy, you’re up next!!
Once you accept the tag, the rules are simple:
1) Please link back to the person who tagged you and add your name to the “tagged list” below.
2) When you have answered the question (which can be in any style/format you like), nominate another (one will do) fellow blogger (who is not already on the list) and pass the tag to your nominee.
If you (the selected nominee) has already answered this question in an earlier post (well done), then your job is very easy – just link the tag to your earlier post and pass the tag on per item nos. 1 and 2 above. Alternatively you can update it (if you wish). Have fun ![]()

My blog has been given another award, thanks to Home is where the heart is.
So here’s what I have to do……
The rules are simple, pick 15 new-to-me blogs to pass this award to. In no particular order the newer blogs on my blog roll are:

I hope everyone can collect the award as I had problems posting comments on some blogs. Word verification wasn’t displaying properly for me, so if I haven’t commented to let you know about this award, I’m sorry, I did try!!
