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.

Homemade Potato Wedges

This is a really quick and tasty side dish.

Spicy Potato Wedges
Serves 2 - 3 points each

600g of whole potatoes
Cajun seasoning
Salt and pepper

Microwave the potatoes whole until they are half cooked. Cut into wedges and sprinkle with salt and pepper and the Cajun seasoning. Pre-heat the grill and put a baking tray under it to until both are very hot. Spray the baking tray with oil from a mister and add the wedges. Spray the top of the wedges with the mister and put under the hot grill. Cook until the wedges are brown and crispy.

We had them today with chilli.
