The A to Z blogging challenge.

A few years ago I did the A to Z blogging challenge where I shared a blog post for each letter of the alphabet, I have so many more blog posts since last time and thought it was a good way to share some older things here on my blog.

A is for Apple! More specifically pork and apple burgers. They are a favourite of mine and we had them a few weeks ago. Stu made them and loved the recipe as it was so simple!

B is for Becky! I don't write about Becky as much as I used to, she has her own life now and is doing pretty well for herself if I do say so myself. I still stick with what I said a few years ago when Becky came out as gay, I don't care what my girls are as long as they're happy. She is happy, in a same sex relationship.

C is for Christmas! This post was all about how we celebrated Christmas a couple of years ago. Things sure have changed since my girls were little, there's less toys and actually more time to relax when all the cooking has been done.

D is for Doctors! We have had our fair share of dealing with doctors over the years with the girls hears, Ellie's hearing loss and other things but what a difference a good doctor makes after a run of seeing not so great one's.

E is for Ellie! How is it coming up two years since Ellie left school and went to her prom. She still says prom day was one of the best days of her life. The getting ready, getting there and being there with her friends.

F is for Friends! The hardest part about teenagers is letting them make their own choices about friends. It is such a minefield especially when you throw social media into the mix! My girls have learned a lot from the friends they have chosen, some good one's and some not so good one's.

G is for Gousto! I have been getting Gousto boxes for a few years now and I love using them, I wrote a blog post why I love them couple of years ago.

H is for Hot Chocolate! Does anyone miss drinking hot chocolate in the warmer months? Last year I shared some hot chocolate recipes. I never think of drinking it when it's warm out but at this time of year I drink one most days.

I is for ICEBREAKER Pop! A faff free kitchen gadget that makes ice cubes. I reviewed it years ago and actually bought another as it was so good. We always have ice cubes in our freezer now.

J is for Jungle! Every year when celebrities go into the jungle for I'm a Celebrity, Get me out of here I get so many views on my Iceland I'm a Celebrity Bushtucker Trial Game - Review!! It was such a laugh and we still talk about it now when I'm a Celeb is on.

K is for Kim! Me! I did an introduction to me a couple of years ago for a linky which I join in with. Nothing much has changed about me since that blog post apart from my hair colour, as of writing this it's a brighter pink.

L is for Lemon! Lemon & Blueberry Muffins! I have made these a few times over the last year. My girls refuse to eat a normal breakfast so things like this are great to get something in their stomachs on a morning. They can grab and go!

M is for Movies! A couple of years ago I shared lots of my favourite movies, my top 5 from different genres. I think my favourite to write was the Christmas one although it was so hard to pick just 5.

N is for Night! It seems ages since I had a girly night out. I do like the idea of putting some make up on, wearing a nice dress and drinking some cocktails but I think I have got to that age where I would much rather stay in my pj's with a couple of glasses of wine in front of the TV.

O is for Outside! I shared 50 outdoor family activities to do this summer. We do a lot of these things every year!

P is for Pizza! I shared a bit of a story about pizza and how I was allergic to cheese for a long time and how I discovered that I wasn't. hehehe

Q is for Queen! My word of the Week was Sombre around when the Queen died. It really was a sad time and seems much longer ago than a couple of years ago!

R is for Rats! This is one of my most viewed blog posts ever! All about how we had rats under the floorboards upstairs!. I am guessing it is a pretty common thing. I can happily say since 2020 the rats have not been back.

S is for Shein! Last year I bought quite a bit from Shein and I know it's sometimes frowned upon but it's cheap and everything I have bought has been decent quality. I bought some fab clothes for summer and they are all good for this summer too.

T is for Tag! I do love a blog tag and my favourite over the last couple of years to do was the Doctor Who one. All of my family love Doctor Who, especially Ellie. We made a point of watching the new series together.

U is for Update! I have found my Project 365 blog posts a great way to do a little life update. Sharing the normal things which have been going on in my life from the past week.

V is for Vacuum! Years ago I was sent a couple of Dyson Vacuums to review and can you believe the big one is still going! It does get blocked easily and sometimes overheats but it still does the job!

W is for Wrestling! I am a big fan of the WWE, the wrestling and I got back into watching it again last year. I love it! I don't miss a show now!

X is for X-Rays! I only have one blog post to do with something starting with X. All about mine and my families broken bones.

Y is for - Yearly! I love writing the blog post at the end of the year, recapping how it went and what we got up to. Last years was an interesting one to write.

Z is for Zero! I have Zero tolerance for bullies! My girls have had their fair share of bullying throughout their lives and I won't stand for it and neither will my girls.

So there you go. Some letters were easier to choose than others and it took a couple of days with my thinking hat on but I got there in the end.
