Turkey Burgers
I always think of turkey as the underdog of the meat world, coming in a long way behind good old chicken. But in our house we are huge fans of turkey, often choosing it over chicken. Turkey is definitely not just for Christmas and, along with Lean on Turkey, I’m hoping to persuade you to...
Win tickets to the Ideal Home Show
I always have so many ideas for decorating my home – shame I never get round to carrying them all out! Having said that, we are currently redecorating Faith’s room.

Al Fresco Holidays – Young Travel Writer Competition
Grace loves to write – she has done ever since she was very young and at 3 years old started to write little sentences. Now she’s 7, I find little pieces of writing all over the house!

Finish QuantuMatic – the final verdict
After my last post I duly gave all the plates, dishes and glasses a good wash by hand to remove residue and cleaned out the dishwasher. I also decided to reposition the QuantuMatic device in my dishwasher, moving it slightly to one side. And hey presto, now we’re getting on like a house on fire!...
Finish QuantuMatic – the first few washes
As I mentioned in an earlier post, I am one of the 10 bloggers who make up the Finish QuantuMatic Jury. We have been asked to try out the dishwasher product and write up our thoughts and experiences with it. I have used the QuantuMatic for my first few loads of dirty dishes so I’ll...
Finish QuantuMatic Jury
Over the next few weeks, along with 9 other bloggers, I will be taking part in a trial for Finish QuantuMatic. I’ve never been part of a Jury before so it’s quite exciting! They have sent me one of their starter packs to try out in my dishwasher, putting it to the test with the...
Nutella and Legoland
Last week, Grace and I were very lucky to be invited to a Nutella breakfast briefing, along with some other lovely bloggers, at Legoland. Grace was beside herself with excitement as it was her first visit to Legoland. I was beside myself with excitement because I LOVE Nutella! Seriously, it is difficult to put into...
