![A PROPER SANDWICH [PROVENDER PICKLE] #PROPERPICKLE](https://keep-up-with-the-jones-family.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/pickle001.jpg)
Sandwiches have always played a huge part in my life. Sugar and butter sandwiches when my mum had nothing else to give us for lunch at the end of the month before payday, bacon [sausage for my dad] and egg sandwiches on Friday lunchtimes during Summer holidays working in my dad’s engineering company as a…
Babies are beautiful – from the first glance at birth, we’re captivated. Their exquisite little features render us helpless and we fall head over heels, secretly thinking that whilst other babies are a little odd, in an angry-old-man-looking manner, somehow you have the most gorgeous looking little being on the face of the earth. …
Have you ever seen anything so cute on the roads today as this little milk float below? Me either. It’s been over 8 years since we had our milk delivered by a float. Sadly, this is not for us grown ups. It’s the world’s smallest milk float, driven by Ella’s dad (of Ella’s Kitchen fame)…
We’ve been looking for more unusual gifts for our Valentines this year – and we’re delighted to bring two very unique little surprises to you from the really lovely people at BEEcycle. Founded in 2007, BEEcycle’s philosophy is one that we completely endorse in our family – they want to teach the generation about recycling,…
When I was in my late teens, I was in love with the photography of Anne Geddes. You know, the “famous baby” photos from Friends (from the Elle McPherson episodes). I had diaries, calendars, and when I left for law school in 1994 (how old I feel saying that), I plastered my bathroom at my…

I suppose it’s only fair – or karma, if you believe in it – that as I remember so vividly destroying my parents’ neatly made bed in order to create a fantastic mattress slide, my own boys are determined I will never sleep on an uncrumpled sheet ever again. This weekend as I tried in…
My resolution is to cut down on food waste! I waste too much and my eyes are know open. Happy New Years!
We waste too much as well – what a great resolution!
I wish you all you wish for yourself in 2015 and more! Health and happiness are two top wishes on my list too. They cover a lot of territory.
Cheers!
Sara-Jayne – Happy New Year! Thanks for taking part in the six words, and for the shout-out here. I'm resolving to be more aware of where I am when I'm there – I know that sounds vague, but I hope it will help me focus on work, give all I can to my family, and strengthen relationships I have everywhere.
Hey Eli! It sounds like the perfect resolution. I know just what you mean. Looking forward to January's prompt!
I didn't make any official resolutions this year other than trying to eat healthier. I would love for my family to eat more 'real' food over processed food. I am finding though that it does take a lot of prep time! But I totally understand making 10 with the hope of seeing them through.
Oh wow, ten resolutions sounds like a ton! I usually don't make new years resolutions because I feel like the majority of the world never follows through on them. I've got vague ideas in my head of what I want to get accomplished this year- maxing out my IRA contribution and tons of work on my blog- but those are everyday things that I think about!
My resolutions for 2015 would be to be more healthy, more active, more organized, do more what of what I love, expand my horizons, experience new adventures, spend more time with family, open my perspective, clean more and to keep everything where its supposed to be. Wow there I already have 10 and I feel like there are just so many more things I can do..well resolutions are anticipated goals but I feel like I can never fully accomplish them all.
I make resolutions and for the past (I don't know how long) years, they have centered on health, fitness and weight loss. This year, for the first time ever, I don't have to because I started my healthy plan this summer and I'm very close to hitting my personal goal, as opposed to just starting it in the New Year. Anyhow, I would like to plan on being more productive in work, and focused. I am self-employed, so sometimes I get lost in the flexibility of it all…and the distractions. Also, getting my driver's license this year wouldn't be so bad. That's a usual Resolution that never gets fulfilled.
I stop making resolution and starting making goals I wanted to work on throughout the year. That way I don't feel bad when they're not done.. However, I've carried over most of the same ones I had last year.. continue to lose weight and eat healthy.. I want to save more money for my first car.. and a down payment on a place to live.. To be happy no matter what happens.. I really want 2015 to be an awesome happy year unlike 2014 which ended with a divorce.. haha
Happy New Year. I can not believe that it is 2015 already so crazy how fast time flies by. I have so many goals for 2015 i'm not even sure where to start. For one I'm starting a new business so my goals might be a little high but i'm so looking forward to what it will bring.
