Easter. Cramp, Bowling,

I do hope you have a Happy Easter. Most will eat ham in North America but for us, and many  others from different parts of the world, it will be roast lamb, although I am given to understand it is very expensive in England these days. Not that I can afford to eat locally grown lamb, that does get very pricey. Even Mandarin is doing roast lamb during the holiday. Of course we will be including Lindt gold chocolate bunnies during the weekend as well. We have Hot Cross Buns as well, mind you.

Although I am prone to cramp, it is generally under control. Not Wednesday night. I had a lousy time of it. I drink tonic water when I have cramps in my legs. Or anywhere else for that matter. Last night it was my inner thigh muscles and I was in agony and having trouble walking to the fridge to get the tonic. I ended up sleeping in the living room so I wouldn't have to go so far. I take all kinds of cramp medicines too. Whilst I was up, I Googled cramp to see what else I could do. I discovered a blood pressure pill I am taking is likely to cause cramp. I can't take statins for the same reason so I think I will be leaving this one out until I can get to the doctor after the holiday. Wednesday I did go to exercise class and then bowling, whether that was the problem I don't know. Done it before though, several times.

Went bowling again today - not sure if I was taking a risk, I hope not - and had to fair games, but not brilliant by any means. We are bowling on Monday as it is no longer a statutory holiday here. Not sure but I think they gave us Family Day in February and took away Easter Monday.

On the assumption that most people will have settled on an Easter menu by now I am not going to include a recipe today. I don't know, but I probably won't post another blog til Monday anyway. So, once again, a very Happy Easter to you all.

Have a great holiday weekend.
