Needless to say, lots more walking for me last week and my legs and bottom are now really appreciating the exercise, even if my hair is suffering sometimes in the damp! Well, you’ve got to wear a woolly hat in winter, haven’t you?! I found a different part of the woods to walk in, and beyond the path was this wonderful kaleidoscope of colour one evening as the sun went down. It looked much more vivid in real life than the photograph, so I enhanced it a tiny bit. I do love a beautiful sunset, don’t you?<\/p>\n

Olaf comes to Banstead <\/strong><\/p>\n\"\"\n

There was also a snowy morning on one of the days last weekend, and I woke to find this! I slept through the snowfall – obviously – makes a change! I was on air late but was amused to find that not only was there still a sledge out next to one of the slopes in our grounds, but somebody had built this! He lasted a good few days as well, because it was so cold. Must get ready with a sledge next time there is snow. Banstead is quite high up in Surrey and does get the cold weather occasionally, so we may be lucky. Or unlucky, depending how deep it is. \ud83d\ude42 I hope you’re staying safe and snug where you are.<\/p>\n

We have some super deals on QVC to help keep you warm, including heated throws<\/a>. I’ve been using mine a lot, while I sit in front of the TV (see below for my routine!) I must admit, I could get used to this life!<\/p>\n

Spin it to win it<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fingers crossed QVC is keeping you company and if you find yourself buying yourself some treats, remember you can have up to three entries a day in our “Spin it to win it” great QVC giveaway! Go here<\/a> for more details, but basically when you get your email with the order number, you enter it plus your personal identifiers on a different web page, listed on the page linked previously. Instant prizes, some really big ones too, plus, an entry into the draw at the end of January for \u00a310,000! Don’t miss out! See below for some of the winter warmer treats you could choose for yourself from our food section.<\/p>\n

Snippets<\/strong><\/p>\n

Simon’s big blooms<\/strong><\/p>\n\"\"\n

Looking forward to a bit of sunshine later in the summer and hopefully the return of these! What whoppers! Giant lily bulbs, fresh back in stock from our Richard Jackson<\/strong><\/a>, online now. How lovely to get some of these ordered now<\/a>, ready to bloom by the spring.<\/p>\n

Although, obviously, I have not got a huge amount of places to grow my bulbs in the flat this year, we buried some in the woods when I emptied the pots from last summer, and you never know what might come up! I will keep my eye out. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Make your own popcorn<\/strong><\/p>\n\"\"\n

Need something to do? Check this out. Oh my gosh, I had the food show on Monday and it included not only the pies from Wilfred’s Pies<\/strong><\/a>, but Joe & Seph’s<\/strong><\/a> amazing popcorn! The “Make Your Own Popcorn” set, available here<\/a>, was included, which, if you picked out the best kernels after you popped them, coated them in the four jars of salted caramel sauce and baked them as recommended, then put them in a giant bag, you would create this much! (More than that, but this was the best.) Joe was very proud to hold it up and show everybody. The most delicious popcorn in the world – believe me, I know, according to my taste buds anyway! \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0Go here<\/a> to see a wonderful selection of food stuffs. Many people don’t realise it all comes with a 60 Day Money-Back Guarantee! Godminster Cheese was another hit, including the four-piece truckle set<\/a>. Wonderful that when you’re stuck indoors you can still order treats for yourself from QVC to be delivered to your door.<\/p>\n

Be like Debbie<\/strong><\/p>\n\"\"\n

Saw this on the way to work this week, on one of the posters. I took a photo because it’s so unusual to see my name being used anywhere nowadays, apart from old slightly dippy women on TV shows! LOL.<\/p>\n

A quick reminder that my bee jewellery should be in stock soon, and on an afternoon Diamonique<\/strong><\/a> show with me on Monday 25th<\/strong>! And don’t you know, Deborah means bee in ancient Hebrew!<\/p>\n

Watch <\/strong><\/p>\n

My recent routine, given that I have just finished so many days at work, has been: wake up late, sort emails and admin, read, then walk in the woods, home for some food, then go to work. Come back, supper, and watch another episode of “The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” on Netflix, while massaging my feet on the Revitive!! Bath, bed, repeat. Given there are currently about 40 episodes to wade through, and I’m only around episode 15 or 16, maybe it will last me ’til the end of lockdown. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I don’t know, I just love the supernatural stuff I must say. Although some of it is very silly, there is enough grittiness and surprisingly pertinent subplots to keep me interested. They are all really good actors and actresses, and some of the effects are fabulous. Not really anything like the teenage version from years ago! Very enjoyable.<\/p>\n

Blooper<\/strong><\/p>\n

Charlie’s latest funny this week was on Twitter, hilarious!<\/p>\n
