We were lucky enough to be invited along to the launch of Brewers Fayre’s new play area along with local families and bloggers at the Castlewood restaurant in near Mansfield the other week. We were given a friendly welcome at the door, and instantly the whole family were made to feel at home. The restaurant…
Princess turned 3 last week, and she had been waiting for this day for about 6 month’s. It wasn’t the birthday, per se, but the idea of a party that had captured her imagination. She’d been to a few now, and was looking forward to one of her very own. We haven’t had a…
Recently the lovely folk down at Scoff Club got in touch and asked me if I wanted to try their new subscription service. When they said it was to have a box of tasty retro sweets sent to my door every month, I got myself signed up straight away. From that moment on I was…
OK, so there has been lots of talk recently of giving something up for Lent. If you have, what did you give up? Was it chocolate, maybe bread or was it your favourite tipple? How are you fairing with your 40 day challenge? I hope it’s going well and you’ve stayed on that wagon.
I have to admit I was quite excited about getting my hands on Justin Fletcher’s new album, Just Party. When it arrived, we had to listen to it straight away, so it went straight in the car CD player. Princess was very excited, Daddy was too but he just didn’t know it yet! There are…
This weekend we took a trip to the Beefeater at Castle Marina in Nottingham for Sunday lunch. It was a first time for all of us and being a family who likes to eat out we were really looking forward to giving it a try. First brownie point is it has it’s own car park….
Princess has been affectionately known as a flight risk for quite sometime now. She can be a lot a bit of a liability when we go out to say the least. Sometimes she is really good and knows that cars and roads are dangerous and will stay firmly by your side. Other times, when concentration…
When I was asked if I wanted to take a look at the new baby pilot hats from My Little Duckling, I couldn’t say no. I knew they were going to be cute, and they kindly agreed to send me a hat for Princess and Little Pudding to review. They arrived first thing in the…
Recently, the lovely people at Fruit Heroes sent Princess some of their healthy snack bars to try out. We are always looking out for tasty, healthy snacks on the go to keep Princess fuelled when we are out and about. She’s really active and needs things we can just grab when we’ve been to gymnastics or out…
Every now and again, I get contacted about a product that gets me really excited. It’s always something that strikes me as a little bit different, that would make a unique and special gift. Those kind of products don’t come along everyday. The lovely Kerri got in touch to tell me about these wonderful journals…
When it’s dull and grey outside there’s nothing like a bit of Christmas sparkle to lift your spirits. Some tinsel and Christmas lights can make a massive difference to feeling the festive magic and it really doesn’t have to cost as much as you think. This is why I jumped at the Poundland Wonderland Challenge to…
Over the last few weeks Princess has been putting Organix Toddler snacks through their paces. She was sent a lovely box of Goodies to see what she thought, and she has really enjoyed giving them the toddler taste test.
Do you remember my post about just how shocking my bathroom looked? It’s taken me a little longer than expected to get it finished, but I have learnt some very important lessons along the way. Knowledge certainly is power, so knowing what I know now will certainly help me in the future if something needs…
I was delighted when Renee contacted me and asked if I would review her new book, ‘Become The Best You’. I have followed Renee’s blog, Mummy Tries since the beginning of my blogging journey. This is absolutely one of my favourite blogs so reviewing Renee’s book was a given for a few reasons, which will…
Recently our family and some other amazing bloggers were invited to attend a special event at The Cornerhouse in Nottingham. We all arrived bright eyed and bushy tailed early one Sunday morning to enjoy a private Movies for Juniors screening of Muppets Most Wanted. We were greeted by some very helpful Cineworld staff who provided…
I have always been a fan of Ella’s Kitchen, since way before my blogging days. I used their range regularly with little Princess. It soon became a brand I relied on and trusted when it came to weaning and snacking for my little one. I found their products complimented my home cooking really well and…
