With the weather offering us those first few fleeting glimpses of summer on the (hopefully) not too distant horizon, my thoughts have been turning to escaping for the summer. And of course all those gorgeous holiday clothes I’ll be treating myself to. There’s something oddly satisfying about pulling all those neglected summer clothes out from…
Beautiful Flowers from Blossoming Gifts
.When I was asked to review a bouquet from Blossoming Gifts I jumped at the chance. Who wouldn’t want a beautiful bouquet of flowers arriving at their door after all?
What I’ve Been Reading | The Festive Edition
I love a festive read. There’s nothing quite like curling up under a blanket when the weather starts to turn with a hot chocolate and a Christmas themed book for company. I have lots of Christmas books waiting for me on my Kindle, yes I really am THAT into Christmas chicklit, but these are a…
On My Kindle | March & April Edition
A bumper issue of What’s On My Kindle thanks to combining both March and April’s reads into one. I can’t believe we’re in June already and I started writing this post back in April – oops! I read A LOT these last few months and there’s some really great books in this roundup, so grab…
Getting Ready for Summer with Mothercare
Don’t you just love it when the weather changes? Not only are the days that little bit longer, but it’s time to shed the layers and revive those all important summer wardrobes. The little one is no different. He recently accompanied the teen and I on a shopping trip to get her a new swimming…
Creative Writing | A Thirst for Knowledge
It’s funny, I couldn’t wait to get out of school and into ‘the real world’ when I was younger. I left school at 15, thanks to being a July baby and got myself a job during my exam leave, heading back to school only to take my exams and pick up my results. I never…
On My Kindle | February Edition
Typically late as usual, but there’s some real beauties in this month’s round up. Here’s what was on my kindle in February:
What’s on my Kindle | January Edition
A bit late in the day for a January edition of anything, but then I never was very good at organisation. I’m a bit of a bookworm. I love losing myself in words, escaping the everyday and I’m finding more and more that I can read a book a week, sometimes less. So what did…
PNP: Making Christmas Special Again This Year
It’s that time of year again for this jolly old fella to make an appearance courtesy of Portable North Pole (PNP). Quite possible the most adorable Santa I’ve ever seen, he’s an annual fixture in our house and has been for some time. Ever since the 13 year old was younger I’ve made her a…
Disney Planes Fire & Rescue Fire Blastin’ Dusty
The little one is Disney Cars and Planes obsessed. Literally. He doesn’t go anywhere without a car or a plane in his hand and that includes when he’s asleep. You should hear the hissy fit he throws if he wakes in the night to find he has dropped one of them. Needless to say when…
