This is the only time that I EVER like to see a cobweb (especially of this size) because they look amazing when Jack Frost has cast his spell!! What do you like to see in the snow or frost?

It’s funny how things change over time isn’t it. Before having children I wouldn’t even contemplate shopping online or from a catalogue “where’s the fun in that?” I would think. I used to love the opportunity to wander at my leisure around the shops and browse to my heart’s content. I loved the feeling of … Read more
Tonight as I pulled one of my cookbooks out of my precariously stacked cupboard I was bombarded by a barrage of loose recipes and printouts that I had shoved into my Cookery Book cupboard.

Her teacher greeted me with wonderful news: Little Bean had earned three ticks on the ‘Star of the Week’ chart. She wasn’t just a good girl; her writing had been exceptional! I couldn’t contain my excitement and … Read more
As you might have seen from my post yesterday, our Christmas was a little blighted by the winter bugs and viruses which are doing the rounds.
