TeaPod- the new way to drink tea. It will leave the others strained

March 27, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 3 Comments

Tea. We love it don’t we? If something goes wrong-we offer a cup of tea. We celebrate with the stuff. We welcome people into our homes with a cuppa. According to the Tea Council (yes, there really is one), we British drink 165 million cups of tea every day. I’m glad I don’t have to … [Read more…]

Naughty farmer’s wife favouring some animals over others

March 26, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 3 Comments

Do you remember the uproar not so long ago when a parent admitted they preferred one of their children over the other? Then some other parents jumped on the band wagon and said they felt the same.

  I love books, always have. My love of literature started from an early age. My mum and dad read. One of my favourite childhood memories is waiting excitedly at the back door for my dad to come in from work so that I could tell him that I’d finished reading my first book all … [Read more…]

Does your husband or partner always forget occasions like Mother’s Day and birthdays? Mine does.

March 23, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 6 Comments

We all eat to much salt and sugar. It is in the headlines every day. As a mum, it worries me on a daily basis. I watch the amount of sugar and salt Boo eats regularly and try and stick to fruit as the most sugar she eats. However she is three so ‘choc’ does … [Read more…]

The spirituality of trees

March 22, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 7 Comments

There’s something very spiritual about trees. When they’re really big I wonder how old they are and how long they’ve been standing there. What have they seen, as it were. We’ve got loads of beautiful old trees at the farm. There is even one with writing carved into it. There are fruit tress and oak. … [Read more…]

Word of the Week: Sleep

March 21, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 8 Comments

My word of the week is: SLEEP. My obsession with it or lack of it. Up to being two, Boo was a brilliant sleeper. Some days I’d have all my house work done by the time shee got up. Many times it was after 8am and, if I was really lucky 9am. Oh those days. So Boo … [Read more…]

A mother’s greatest critic? Other mothers.

March 18, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 26 Comments

Recently, I took part in a twitter discussion on parenting stigmas. My, do we live in a judgemental world. It seems mothers can’t win no matter what they do and guess who our biggest critics are? Other mothers. To be honest, you’ve barely come down from the euphoria of giving birth before it starts. Mums … [Read more…]

Rosie- My Doggie soul-mate

March 18, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

So Rosie the dog has been under the weather since Sunday. She was still down this morning-not eating and lethargic but I thought she would last until tomorrow when I am off work. Hubster rang me at 8.15am and said she yelped when he picked her up. I panicked. We had to put Poppy, one … [Read more…]
