winner, winner, what's for dinner?

Hello all!
Frosty is not the word, thank goodness Mr Betty had the good sense to buy me a hat for Christmas.
Being a short haired lass (I am growing it a bit), one does worry about ones ears. I have been wearing the aforementioned hat today and it has done a sterling job!

I am here to announce the winners of my giveaway, chosen from all my lovely followers.
The 1st prize is a Badger in a Bag, along with some extras, and the two 2nd prizes are a inspiration pack (fabric, buttons and trim) and a pin cushion made by my good self.

The strange thing about this is that the 3 I have drawn are bloggers I feel I hardly know, blog wise of course. It has been rather nice getting to know their lovely blogs and I will most definitely, in the future, check over my follower list and have a good read of all the blogs.....much better than TV(other than Dog The Bounty Hunter, that is my fave).

Before I announce the winners I must just share (bore you with) some pics.
I have been spending a few pennies with Lapin and Me of late, very addictive. 

Cute 'TOYS' bunting, in the sale.

Couldn't resist. Got this before Christmas and I love her.


Great xmas present, years magazine subscription. I don't live in the country but it is nice
 to dream. Coasters from Vintage Village.

Can't bear to pack away my 'Little Teawagon' bauble.
I am risking bad luck and keeping this deco out!!

 Okay, time for the winners.
1st prize winner is http://winnibriggshouse.blogspot.co.uk/  (you have a gorgeous summer house)
2nd prize winner is http://miss-beatrix.blogspot.co.uk/ (you have a very cute dog)
3rd prize winner is http://ivyandruby.blogspot.co.uk/ (you are cool)

I will contact you all if I can and you can contact me at emmabinka@aol.com with your address.

Lastly, and the reason I have added 'what's for dinner' in my title is that I have realised, I have been neglecting my 'tonight I will mostly be.....'
I think that I have become uninspired with my mealtime choices. This is going to be an additional NY resolution. Meal planning, trying new things and talking more about food.

So tonight I will mostly be.....reading my many recipe books. Any family recipe ideas welcome (as long as they don't contain sluggy mushrooms).
Thanks for reading. x

    Hurray! I've done it!

    Now then, what is the meaning of you showing us your gorgeous Lapin and Me goodies? I was on their website sweeping items into my basket before I was even conscious of it. I had to leave my full basket on the shelf when I realised what I was doing.

    I've been enjoying the Apples for Jam recipe book recently - I've tried a couple of really simple recipes from there, one being a lamb recipe (if you want to up your red meat intake). It's super easy to cook (it needs to be, as I'm rubbish in the kitchen).
