Buy A Gift – Hampers For Christmas! Last week ahead of the Christmas shenanigans (which start early in press – not just print but even on line these days) I was sent a wonderful hamper press sample from Buy A Gift. I love it SO much and think it’s SUCH good value that I shall be buying the exact same one for 3 separate people I know this Christmas. Basically it’s a gorgeous basket (which when I looked into creating […]
We Love Frugi For Christmas! I’m not gonna lie, I’ll be straight with you now, it may only be the early part of November but I’m gonna be on Christmas watch from now on in. This year has sucked for many reasons and Christmas is the perfect thing to look forward to not to mention that actually, it’s starting a whole heap later than it usually does when it comes to press and bloggers, so I refuse to apologise more […]
Sweet Pumpkin Puree! I have never had much success with pumpkin recipes in the past having always found them a bit earthy got my tastes. However, when we bought this blue pumpkin to decorate our Halloween table, the man in the farm shop told me how delicious they are and so I thought if it lasted past its primary purpose I would give some cooking another go. Yesterday, over a week after Halloween ended it was still very much within […]
Halloween Half Term – October 2020! It wasn’t the half term any of us thought it would be back in March when we first went into lockdown – I’m pretty sure we ALL thought the pandemic would be over by now and being back to normal might be a possibility. Sadly that’s not been the case but at least here in Norfolk our numbers have been lower than lots of parts of the country and we have been afforded a […]
Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure – October Half Term 2020! Long term fans of Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure it didn’t take much persuasion to entice us back for a trip this Halloween October Half term and despite choosing the rainiestday day of the week we had a glorious time as per usual! Just a wet, glorious time as opposed the sunshine day we spent there back in August which feels not very far away at all in memory yet of course we are […]
Pleasure Beach Great Yarmouth Does Fairground Frights! Honestly we had the BEST time at Fairground Frights (courtesy of Pleasure Beach Great Yarmouth) last night. It was absolutely, well & truly, totally & utterly wonderful. And I don’t say that lightly. I am not one for a theme park in general because I hate bloody queueing (we didn’t for more than 4 minutes on any ride – I timed it) & I also don’t like being cold. Plus right now I’m pregnant & […]
Protest Women FW 20/21! Whether a skier, surfer or just a fan of the clothing, Protest Women is the one stop shop for you this fall/winter with a new collection launched in September that sees ski jackets for women and fleeces to stand up on the high street just as beautifully as they do on the slopes! I always get hoodies, sweatshirts and swim wear from them for the beach as we are on it all seasons and in winter […]
Halloween Pumpkin Iced Biscuits! I bought my cutter a while ago and it has lots of elements to make different faces. I can’t find it anywhere now but there are lots of brilliant cutters about so as long as you buy one with cut out eyes and mouth so show the chocolate through then it’ll be grand. These are two biscuits sandwiched with chocolate (in this case Galaxy) and then the fronts I have flood iced which is fiddly but […]
Sea Life Hunstanton A-Scarium! When it comes to Sea Life Centres we love them – they are super fun, full of sensory gorgeousness, brilliant for learning and we have to say, the one near us in Hunstanton, is the best! It’s right on the beach in a stunning setting and they have a seal hospital which is the best bit. For half term this October they are also offering their spooky trail as part of their A-Scarium Halloween offering and […]
Would My Child Benefit From Extra Tuition? This is a question that will come up at least once in every parents’ life. More than likely it will come up a number of times for different subjects and at different ages but what do we do about it? For some the idea of additional tuition is normal for others it feels hard to admit it’s needed, it also carries a cost in terms of money and time. There are lots of […]
