About Me

My photo
My name is Jo and I am a single parent. I have two young boys aged 4 and 3. I'm starting this blog in order to keep myself sane and to share my experiences as a single parent. My oldest son is called Charles but is very rarely called that, he is usually referred to as Charlie or Bobbins. He is very long sighted and needs to wear glasses all the time - when he has not broken them of course. My other son is called Leo, but is known as The Bean. He has a mild case of Spina Bifida and also has hydrocephalus, not that you would know that to look at him. My intention is to take a picture every day for a year and to write a little about it. The say that a picture is worth a thousand words and each picture will hopefully represent that day.

Rasberry Jelly

This is a low point treat that always goes down well in my house. Everyone enjoys it including the boys.

Raspberry Jelly
1 pt for the lot

1 pack sugar free raspberry jelly (Jell-o)
1 punnet of fresh raspberries

Make up the jelly following the instructions and allow to cool so that it is still liquid but not hot. Add the raspberries and chill. Simple but really filling and delicious as a pudding. You could add low fat icecream to serve as a treat.

This works with most soft fruits except kiwi fruit and pineapple as they have an enzyme in them that stops the jelly from setting.
