Be Food Smart with Change4Life

As the years go by I have started to take a lot more interest in the products I am using and what is actually inside them, this goes for the cosmetics I use day in day out and foods I eat and feed my daughters. I am a busy working mum and a lot of the things I grab are often for convenience; I love to home cook and bake but as we all know sometimes time just doesn’t allow for this. I find myself reaching for quick easy things, which is fine but I found myself not checking those…

3 Ways to enjoy Little Yeos

Please tell me I am not the only one who picks up there children every day from school and is met with wails of starvation?? I get it, it’s a long day for them and it’s just so easy to give them a little biscuit or a packet of crisps to keep them going till dinner time but for my girls it just fills them up on junk and then they aren’t interested in a meal I have cooked for them. I’ve just stopped buying it out of sight out of mind but they are still hungry so I have…

Indoor Picnics

You can’t always rely on the great British weather and in the height of summer we have been hit with the odd dull or rainy day! At the start of the holiday’s I vowed to make the most of the 7 weeks we have of from school together with our A-Z of summer fun and so far I don’t think we have done too badly. One particularly dull Tuesday afternoon we were having a bit of a slow paced day, the girls began to get restless so we decided to enjoy a little indoor picnic together. They were so excited when…

Burger’s and cheese cake; if I eat out and their on the menu they are mine.

A Little Break At M by Montcalm Shoreditch

Over the weekend Caro, Sarah and I headed up to London for an event with Mumsnet, seen as it would take us each a couple of hours to travel in we thought why not make the most of it and stay overnight. After a little browse online we settled on the M by Montcalm drawn in instantly by the luxuriousness of the rooms, the thought of loosing a couple of hours in the spa and the fab location; in the heart of Shorditch surrounded by lots of amazing bars and restaurants. The building it self is just stunning as I…

Iceland & The #PowerOfFrozen

When my girls started going off to school and nursery I thought to myself ‘great I will have so much more time on my hands, to get the things I want to done.’ Little did I know with school & nursery comes things like school runs, after school activities, playdates, parties – on top of any clubs they’re already a part of. Some days I literally feel like I spend the whole day in the car carting everyone around to where they need to be. One thing that has always been so important to me is providing my children with…
