Fending for myself this past week has been a real eye opener because this is exactly what I'm going to have to do when I move to Canada. Cooking, cleaning for myself doing simple things like having to put the rubbish bins out, feeding the dog, making sure I get myself up on time for because no one is going to wake me should I oversleep or anything! These are things I have done in the past but, they have never been my sole responsibility. It's going to take some getting used to to say the least. On Thursday night, I cooked a rather delicious meal that I thought I might share with you all. Creamy spinach chicken pasta! I got the recipe from Donal Skeehan's Kitchen Hero book and it was so easy! I'll be sure to include a picture of what I made and one of the recipe itself from the book so all you budding chefs out there can be inspired! I'm actually excited to be including photos on the blog, they will be my first. Hopefully, I'll be including lots more in the future!
Huge picture! But wanted to make sure you could all read it! Also had to take it as a landscape so it would all fit in one photo! |
The water charges in Ireland are now up and running and I don't know what to make of them myself. Many countries, Canada included already pay for their water usage so, I'm surprised that water charges haven't been introduced before this? They only real issue I have with them is it's just another bill that we have to pay to get this debt stricken country back to normality. As I currently live at home, I'm not really affected by any of these charges but, my parents are and that worries me. How exactly are they or anyone else supposed to be able to survive in this country?! This is just another reason why I want to leave. Makes me so angry to even think about!
Recently I started watching The Walking Dead and I have become obsessed
with it! I really didn't think I was going to like it if I'm honest. Shows
about vampires, zombies and mythical creatures fall into the same category for
me. Because they are based around something that isn't real I find it hard to
believe and think I won't enjoy it. I watched one season of True Blood before
and yeah, gave up, didn't like it because all it was for me was blood, vampires
and scenes of an intimate nature shall we say! I got bored! So, I thought The
Walking Dead would be the same style of thing. If you have not seen this show,
I highly recommend it. It will honestly have you on the edge of your seat! I'm
already on season two and I only started watching it a few days ago! Other TV
series that I recommend if you haven't already seen them would be Breaking Bad,
Orange is the new black and Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones is another show I
started watching way after everyone else and became hooked. I found it
confusing in the beginning but decided to stick with it and I would tell you
all to do the same. Roll on season 5 is all I can say!
I hope you're all enjoying reading my blog! For the next 100 odd days
any posts I make are likely to have nothing to do with Canada. Seeing as I have
booked my flights all I can do now is wait and hope you enjoy reading about
various things I get up to for the time being.
Thanks for reading!
