Today I had the privilege of getting a first peek at the spring/summer style for Mothercare’s 2017 collection. It was, as always, really interesting to see everything up, colourful and awaiting some sunshine and beaches but the highlight for me is always the Little Bird By Jools collection. I don’t think it needs any introduction as I know I’m not in the minority being a fan but just to let you know why I love it so much here are […]
A couple of month’s ago I wrote about my very first experience of wearing Hotter Shoes. I had never had a pair myself and had assumed that they weren’t really for my age bracket on the basis of nothing much other than the fact my Mum wears them. I was so surprised when I went shopping there myself, with a view to wearing their shoes on my own two feet, to find that actually, they are well and truly up […]
When we moved back to Norfolk we bought annual passes to BeWILDerwood because it’s quite simply, not just the best day out in the county, but in our opinion, the best day out in the COUNTRY! And we LOVE being able to go all the time with our passes which are actually very reasonably priced. We never get bored, and enjoy every season in the woods swinging through the trees on zip wires (there are even baby ones for tiny tots), sliding […]
In half term we went to stay with our lovely friends Katy, Daisy and Evie who are MASSIVE Yo! Sushi fans. They talk about it a lot and because we’ve been meaning to try it for ages, half term, with them to guide us on what to pick, seemed like the perfect time to visit. Yo! Sushi isn’t somewhere you might think to be child friendly but actually, why not? Sure, sushi might not be everyone’s cup of tea but Florence […]
I’d not really cooked chilli con carne before today but bonfire night commands it I feel and as it’s rather nippy outside I’ve made a big batch using ingredients from my favourite Aldi. We shall have some tonight before the fireworks to warm us up before we leave and then I’ll freeze the rest in portons for quick meals on other days. I looked up a few recipes and asked my Mum what she did then in the end adapted it […]
The Secret Life Of Pets was a massive box office hit this year and is soon to be released on DVD of which I’m sure it will be just as popular. Energizer® has teamed up with the film so that when you pick up a special promo pack (from major participating retailers) you get a chance to win a plush toy for your own secret adventures at home! Energizer® is powering family time with a range of batteries and headlamps ready […]
‘Our recent loft conversion with Anglian Carpentry has been such a positive experience for us providing stunningly perfect results. We are absolutely thrilled with the work and every aspect of the service provided to us along the way’. How could I not blog about that statement?! Until recently we lived in a small flat in East London where utilising all available space (it wasn’t a lot) had been completely exhausted. We’d even looked into loft conversions (as have half of London) but because […]
I guess I do talk about Pizza Express rather a lot on the blog don’t I? But… In my defence it really is the best place to take the children for food as when it comes to dining out with the family they know exactly what they are doing. For us grown ups this is a massive relief because it’s one of the places that we went to pre-kids. I’m not sure there’s many of those you know, places we went before […]
