The Vaguest of Good Fortune To You

My fortune cookie made me laugh, while positive, it was quite possible the most vague statement ever "Good things are coming to you in due course of time".

Gong Xi Fa Cai! Today is the last day of the Chinese New Year. If you're in London, try and make it down to China town as today is the day it all kicks off with parades and entertainment. The parade starts at 10:15 today at Duncannon Street. I'd love to be down there with my camera but I don't fancy getting pushed around in the crowds in my current state (plus I have prior plans today). I'll have to live vicariously through twitter :)

VisitLondon.com have brought out a rather handy map which shows where the parade will travel. Head over to their Chinese new year page to see what's going on and for full details of the map.

Happy Pancake Day! Nom Nom Nom.

I broke my pregnancy Nutella fast tonight with some Nutella filled pancakes and Ben & Jerry's Chocolate fudge browny ice-cream for dinner (because thats how we roll)! Even though Mike hasn't cooked them for ages they were perfect :) The photo above isn't one of mine (because the phone photo I took whilst trying to fend off two cats and not letting my ice-cream melt was a bit of a mess)!

What did everyone else have for pancake day?
