1. Learn to crochet and crochet some Christmas Decorations for next year
I started to practice crochet but I'm not going to lie, I didn't get very far. I made a chain but could not for the life of my work into it! I need to find a new book/guide to help me in my crochet effort! (any recommendations would be very much appreciated!)

Here I am doing well! Three books completed already! With the receipt of my Kindle for Christmas I am loving reading once more and as soon as I finish a book I am straight onto the next one! I am also taking advantage of Amazon's Daily Deal where they offer a kindle book everyday for 99p! My favourite book of the month was 'Rosie's War: An Englishwoman's Escape from Occupied France'. I have always enjoyed history, particularly that surrounding WW1 and WW2 and this book gave me a perspective of WW2 I had never considered before! It was a frank account of an Englishwoman's trapped in France as an enemy alien.
4. Cook a new recipe every week (52 in the year) including at least 25 from different countries (we had a delicious Chinese meal to celebrate New Years Eve and I'm feeling inspired!)
