A nice cup of tea… everyone loves one. My Mum loves it so much that when she goes on holiday she even takes her own tea bags with her because she doesn’t think you can get a strong enough cup on the continent. She likes it dark and strong and probably drinks about ten cups a day. I love tea too but I’m very different in my drinking, I very rarely have an English Breakfast and if I do then […]
Ever the Pizza Express fans and it’s never a chore to write about our experiences of dining in them. We visit them a lot and I can’t help, whether invited to or not, but write about when we have had a really good meal (as we so very often do) whether I have been invited to for the blog or we have just been because we chose to. Jonny actually pointed out that he can’t remember the last time he had a […]
As soon as Florence saw Little Live Pets, which was in the summer of last year just as they were being launched, she absolutely loved them. The little birds which whistle and repeat what you say are absolutely gorgeous; we don’t know anyone who has played with one who hasn’t fallen in love! We have a little bird and both the children play with it regularly, in fact my Mum bought another different one for Florence as an Easter present […]
As massive Frozen fans (of course), we were mega excited for the much anticipated new ‘short’, Frozen Fever, which accompanies Disney’s latest blockbuster, Cinderella! Of course we were excited to see Cinderella too but really, if I’m honest, it was second in our priorities when it came to the watching… Little did we know though that Cinderella would steal out hearts so much that we’d forget we’d even seen Frozen Fever until we were half way home, still smiling about the […]
Florence has always been very crafty and even before she turned one I can remember her sitting and sticking on her own very engrossed in what she was doing. It was no surprise then, that when we went to an event for Save The children’s Christmas Jumper campaign, that she was totally interested in knitting. She finds it a little hard to do with needles because her hands are so small but she loves to do finger knitting and knitting on […]
Yesterday we kicked off the Easter holidays in style by finishing school at 2pm and promptly taking a trip to the Westfield shopping centre near us so that we could sit on Italian Vespas and eat ice cream, it’s just how we roll! When Jimmy and I rocked up to the school gates for the early pick up we had sun shine beaming down on us and it was saying CELEBRATE! How could we refuse… Ice cream was the perfect […]
I’ve been faking it for years and I doubt very much that I’m in the minority of women when I admit that! Get your head out of the gutter, I know what you’re thinking but believe me, that’s not it! I’m talking about something far more important here… I’m talking about beauty! My Grandma told me that in the war her friends and she would tan their legs up with tea bags and then draw a black line with eye […]
