Rowse Honey
Who can resist a good cupcake? Well, I can’t, so I was very excited when Rowse Honey sent me a box of cupcakes and a jar of honey to promote their latest advertising campaign. And very delicious cupcakes they were too. I shall be using the honey to make a honey cake – watch out...
Snowflake Wedding Cake
I loved working on this wedding cake – such a simple but stylish design. The bottom and top tiers are fruit cake with a vanilla sponge for the middle tier. The cakes are covered in sugar paste, decorated with snowflakes and edible gems and finished off with pretty purple ribbon. Congratulations to Rob and Karen...
Philips Airfryer review
I was extremely excited when Philips, who hosted a wonderful Christmas lunch for some bloggers, asked if I’d like to try out their Airfryer. I love kitchen gadgets and am very quickly running out of room to store them all, but who could turn down this slick looking machine? As soon as it arrived we...
Stash busting
Last year I made a huge effort to do more crafting, in particular knitting, crochet and sewing. I made a good start but didn’t get as much done as I hoped. However, over the past few years I have built up a hug stash of fabric and yarn and this is the year when I...
Warburtons Wheat and Gluten Free Range
Last month I was very excited to be invited to the launch of the new wheat-free and gluten-free range from Warburtons. This is quite a leap forward by a major brand and is one that I’m sure with be very welcome by those who follow a gluten-free diet. The current range consists of white and...
How to make a fairy bed
We seem to have collected quite a few shoe boxes recently, especially as we had to buy yet more school shoes for Grace after just 5 months! Why do children have to grow so fast? Anyway, Faith and I decided to make a little bed for her fairy and she has taken it everywhere with...

Princess Biscuits
Having two daughters it is inevitable that sometimes I have to partake in some very girly activities. My two were definitely born with the ‘pink gene’ and whilst I try to steer clear of too much pink, sometimes you just have to give in! So we bought Faith a very pink baking set for Christmas...
Little Dish Beef & Spinach Cannelloni
A while back I reviewed the Little Dish Cookbook, which we really liked and have tried several recipes since we were sent it. So knowing how much we liked it, Little Dish offered to send the girls some of their new Beef & Spinach Cannelloni meals to try out. I like Little Dish as they...
January Bake It! Club
I hope you have enjoyed the Sundried Tomato and Cheese Scone recipe this month. I have to say they went down very well in our house and I had to make another batch straight away! If you haven’t had a chance to bake them yet, then there’s still plenty of time to join in. The linky...
Tube Town – Gingerbread House
The girls were very excited when we were asked if we’d like to test out an inflatable Gingerbread House from Tube Town. Our house and garden aren’t very large so having any kind of playhouse isn’t easy due to lack of storage space. The beauty of this little (or fairly large actually!) house is that...
