Hello lovely readers. Thanks so much for stopping by for the second edition of the travel and lifestyle round up. If it’s your first time here, you can catch up on what was making a splash in January in this post. We’ll be right here when you get back, so please feel free to stop…
I’ve been thinking a lot about ‘self care’ recently, and how every other post we see on blogs and social media has something to say about it. I’m sure you’ve read ’10 ways to practice self care’ or something very similar and I wondered how you felt about it? There’s something about the term ‘self…
I’m a firm fan of having something to look forward to in January, so I was delighted when Super Break asked us if we would like to try a London Theatre Break from their website. January is a pretty dull month after all the Christmas celebrations so it was lovely to have a short city…
Cornwall is a really beautiful part of the world, and we are going to be spending half term getting to know the area a little bit better. I’ve been very busy putting out travel plans together and I’ve found the very best activities to keep the kids entertained, even when the weather is plotting against…
Over recent years, going to the theatre has become more and more accessible to children. I love taking the girls to see a show, and they love watching stories and characters be brought to life in front of their very eyes. We never fail to have a good time when we go to the theatre…
All Inclusive family holidays are a great option for parents who want a stress free break with the kids. When you know that all your meals, snacks and drinks are included in the price it makes planning for your holiday so much easier. It’s a huge peace of mind knowing that the kids…
What makes for a memorable restaurant in your book? Is it a warm and friendly welcome? Perhaps it’s the comfortable dining experience? I’m pretty sure an excellent menu and high quality dishes will feature in your list somewhere, right? Well, if you are looking for an Indian restaurant in Nottingham that has all these bases…
This post has been rattling around in my head for a while now, and I was keen to get people’s thoughts on this particular topic too. I was originally going to call this post ‘the joys of being pregnant at 21’, but I didn’t want you all to think I was encouraging 21 year olds…
Making sure my kids eat a healthy balanced diet and enjoy an active lifestyle is a constant priority for me. As you might know if you have followed my blog for a while I have experienced issues with my weight for a long time, since I was a child in fact. I have always been…
I am very aware that the spaghetti bolognese that I cook at home is nothing like the authentic Italian pasta that I’d experience in a five star restaurant but for a family meal it ticks our boxes especially on a school night. However, sometimes it’s nice to ditch the family meal and have a real…
Planning a holiday to Australia is a big deal isn’t it? It’s a really long way to travel if you are taking a trip from the UK and making the most of your time in the country is going to be a top priority. When we visited the UK, we contacted Reiss Edwards to help…
Is your partner a geek? My husband most definitely falls into this category and I really struggle to buy him gifts for Valentine’s Day. He’s often the first to say ‘don’t worry about buying me a present’ when the most romantic day of the year comes around, but I like giving gifts and I think…
Did you make some New Year’s Resolutions about being more active? Have you managed to fit exercise into your routine yet? I strongly believe that the key to starting exercise and sticking with it is finding something you love doing. I really love Zumba and I’ve been going to classes for over a year now…
Hello everyone. I hope you don’t mind, but today I’m feeling the need to get something off my chest. If you are new around here, you might not know that last year we discovered my daughter had glue ear. She had grommets fitted and her adenoids removed last September. We definitely saw progress in her…
One of my favourite countries to visit with the family is Spain. As well as the gorgeous beaches and warm weather I really love their food and attitude to family life. They love fresh ingredients and good old fashioned home cooked meals. I love how you will struggle to eat a processed diet in Spain…
