I live in Cheshire in north-west England, though I'm originally from Brighton on the south coast of England.
I'm married and have one precious son who's 11 and has me wrapped around his little finger!
I work full time as a credit controller, luckily it's quite local to home so I don't have far to travel.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005 and had to undergo various ops, chemo and radiotherapy so feel very lucky to still be alive and able to enjoy today.
I am a big football (soccer) fan and go to watch Brighton most weekends. I enjoy lots of other sports too and also watching my son play football and cricket.
Since being diagnosed with breast cancer I have turned veggie and am pretty fussy about what I eat (hence now cooking most meals from scratch so I know what's in them!).
I get an organic vegetable box delivered from the local farm every week. It's great fun finding out what's been sent and looking for new recipe's to use the different veg in new ways.
I do love baking too but as I'm trying to cut out sugary and sweet foods, I don't bake cakes and make desserts as often these days.
My favourite foods are Indian and Italian though I love all sorts of spicy dishes. I also prefer dishes with a sauce (my hubby says I only like slops!).
