Christmas

Siblings, January 2021

January 15, 2021 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

The first Siblings post of 2021 seems a bit like deja vu. We finished the last one of 2020 looking forward to Christmas and, while there were a lot less people around our table, the children still enjoyed themselves. Christmas seemed to be a lot less stressful last year. I was relatively organised wrapping presents … [Read more…]

How To Make Your Gifts More Thoughtful and Meaningful

December 31, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Giving gifts is a lot harder than most people think. Gift-giving is a skill that a lot of people lack because they’re just not used to it. It’s not really a fault or a bad thing either–some people just don’t have the confidence to give a gift. This is a fairly common problem but there … [Read more…]

The Best Bit Gingerbread Houses-A Review

December 13, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Fiona Arber set up The Best Bit ten years ago hosting gingerbread house parties for her friends and family. Having a gingerbread house party is such a great way to celebrate together and have fun with friends. It’s not just for Christmas either. Fiona can make bespoke designs to individual tastes. She uses all British … [Read more…]

The Christmas Swede-A Tale of Farming and Thankfulness

December 5, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy 5 Comments

A few years ago, an old farmer turned up in our yard. It happens from time to time. He knew my father-in-law from years ago-my husband’s Dad who passed away just after our eldest was born. I had a chat with him and he also knew my husband’s grandfather. He told me tales of drinking, farming and … [Read more…]

Siblings, January 2020

January 15, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

It may be the first Siblings post of the new year but, in the last month, there has only been one word on the tip of all of the children’s tongues and that is Christmas. They’ve had a ball. School finished and a few days of baking, winter walks and excitement commenced before the big … [Read more…]

Siblings, December 2019

December 15, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Christmas is hurtling towards us and we have been making the most of the festive season with Christmas fairs, nativity plays and general merriment. I love doing the siblings posts as it forces me to look through the photos from the last month and choose the best ones. It also makes me marvel then in … [Read more…]

Farm Themed Christmas Books For Children

December 9, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

We love farm books and we love Christmas books so finding titles that are Christmassy and farm related is a massive bonus. I like to put Christmas books away in January so that they are fresh for the next year but some of these titles stay out all year because they are so loved. 1. … [Read more…]

How to Clean your Christmas tree

November 22, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

How to clean your Christmas tree The short answer is, don’t bother. I am a member of some cleaning groups on Facebook. Not to join in, you understand. I either lurk in the sidelines feeling inadequate or laugh at the bizarre things people do and marvel at how they would cope living on a farm. … [Read more…]

Farm Life, November 2019

November 20, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

You know how in some magazines, they have a going up and going down popularity column? I think I should do one for my Farm Life post each month. This month, chihuahuas are going up, donkeys are going down and goats are somewhere in the middle. I wrote a whole post a while back about … [Read more…]

Not Too Late Christmas Cake

November 18, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Some people begin making their Christmas cakes as early as October. Indeed, some years I too have soaked the fruit as soon as Halloween is over. I have been debating whether to make one at all this year. I didn’t make one last year because the one in the previous year was awful. I had … [Read more…]
