Comment on The end of alcohol-free January – and the results by Elinor

WOW good for you. I knew I would find it too hard to stick to a month so instead I decided to make sure it was only at the weekends. And I’m so chuffed because I am sticking to it. I think what helps is feeling relaxed about it and I don’t think of it as a really strict rule so if I have the odd night out on a weekday then I don’t stress about having a drink. Have stocked up on sparkling water during the week which is actually quite nice – who knew?!?

These look so good! Love the idea of using the marmalade straight in the brownies.

Oh how romantic can I be….if you don’t mind I will be getting some help from my kids with this as it happens to fall in half term week. So the hearts may not be perfectly formed but they will be made with love……AAAHHHHH!

There was a supplier listed in the back of the Nigella Christmas book, if I remember rightly – although I can’t find my copy at the moment! x

Yes, my sympathies there – I don’t think alcohol brings out the best in anyone really, do you? x

Ugh. Never again. Tell you what, though, it made me think more about my wine choices. We’ve decided to choose better wines and savour them, rather than open a bottle without thinking x

I think it’s a vicious circle of sipping, nibbling, sipping again and nibbling! Trying not to get back into the habit now

These look so good. I feel much better now knowing that you bought the orangettes. I haven’t seen them for sale here, I must investigate this further.
