I’ve been dreaming of home interiors for a very, long time. Since I was a teenager in fact. My tastes probably did change but I knew I wanted a pink kitchen and a cream living room. When I bought my first house-a little terrace, I made my dream come true. While the kitchen cupboards were … [Read more…]
Potty training. It’s a Bing thing. If you ask me, it’s also a nightmare thing. I would seriously rather give birth again than potty train. It is a thankless task and we haven’t always had the best of luck with it here. To find something to spark the imaginations of little ones though, always gets … [Read more…]
Close your eyes, take a bite, and spend your summer travelling with my healthy kitchen. As soon as the summer sun peeps out from behind the clouds, our Facebook feed is clogged full of people going on the summer holidays. If, like me, you can’t get away because of running your own business, you … [Read more…]
My quest for the perfect pram has gone on for years. I’ve blogged about it, bored people to tears about it. It is such a big decision. A pram will probably be one of the most expensive baby items you buy. It has to be the right choice. When I had G, I knew which … [Read more…]

My paternal grandmother was the kindest, gentlest woman and we spent a lot of time together when I was young. She baked weekly when … [Read more…]
As part of our BigJigs ambassadorship, we were recently sent a BigJigs Hay Barn to review. Part of the BigJigs rail range, the hay barn is a must for any little farm enthusiasts out there. After all, how else could the hay bales be stored in the loft? We love that G can watch daddy … [Read more…]
I have heard of cobnuts before because I saw a feature on them on BBC Countryfile but with the start of the cobnut season just around the corner, I got to hear about a Kentish cobnut producer Potash Farm. August 22nd is the ‘official’ start of the season. Native to Kent, cobnuts, a cultivated hazelnut, … [Read more…]
We love the outdoors here. I know most people wait for the summer but for us, it doesn’t really matter if its not hot, you will almost always find us outside-the kids especially.
