So It begins......

So I've been told the internet is all about blogging so I thought i' ad a page to make it easier to navigate and find what I've been up to and whats new on here.

So Saturday saw the return of warmer weather, the roads were dry and my boiler is broken so I didnt really need a reason to get out of the house! I donned my lycra, dusted off the summer bike Yes bikes are seasonal) and got ready to meet my friends.

It was nice for a change to be up and active, we did about 25 miles and I came home for a nice bowl of Leek and Potato soup, homemade of course, recipe is on here under my food section.

This set me up for the day and gave me plenty of time to do my chores and go fix my mums caravan that my dad had broken (always good for me to earn brownie points, my Mum still does a lot for me!)

Come Saturday night we visited what my brother states as being the best restaurant in the world "Pizza Hut" I must admit im quite partial to a meat feast pizza every now and then and the free salad is a bonus too, well worth a visit.

When I got home it was a case of hybernating in my bedroom, the heating is broken like I said so my only source of heat is either my electric blanket in bed or the shower, and im not sure sleeping in the shower is an option! Luckily the plumber is coming tommorrow to try fix it!

Sunday afternoon is my daily shopping trip, it gives me chance to browse and think what creations I can make that week, I picked up some ingredients for my next cocktail attempt and headed home, Mrs Kimber (my mum to those of you who dont know me personally) makes the best sunday roast and were were due there at 5 , this gave me a few hours to kill so hey why not make a mark1 of my cocktail and see how it turned out.

I measured out my ingredients, added to my cocktail maker and off i went. Mark 1 of the cocktail tasted just what i was after, Lemon Cheesecake! however it was like rocket fuel and the vodka was just a bit overpowering, so onto mark2 to try adjust it. I drank the first and tried again. This time the flavour wasnt as nice but it didnt blow your head off! I'm going to have another attempt soon with slight variations!

Sunday dinner was awesome! back home after and time for my girlfriend to go home, this gave me perfect time to have a bit of fun and make the next video for my Youtube channel! (Kimberskitchen) I slipped on my fro, blacked up my tash, and got into my 70's vibe. You can see the video under my cocktail section under the after 8.

Hope you have a great week, ill be back with updates soon
