Five Favourite Stand Alone Books
So it’s been a while since I wrote about books. The truth is, I really haven’t been reading. Ever since I got my Netflix account all I do is watch stuff on that when I get into bed. I think it’s because at that time of night I just want to do something completely mind numbing. It’s one of the ways I’ve completely changed since becoming a parent. That and I read a lot to LM. But that doesn’t mean I don’t still adore books, because I do. I just tend to go back and read old ones as it’s not as taxing on my brain. Because of this I’ve…

Father’s Day Gift Guide 2015*
ALL LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

So here is my gift guide for father’s this father’s day. Milk Chocolate Great British Tool Box* £3.50, Retro Sweets. It’s Father’s Day, dad doesn’t want to be cracking on with some DIY, so instead present him with a box of chocolates shaped like a tool box! Not only is it a cute idea, but it’s a product made here in the…

My Bathtime Routine*
I have to admit, my favourite nights of the week are the ones I have time to take a bath. So when Victoria Plumb sent me a basket of goodies to help make “me time” more relaxing, I was really looking forward to that night of the week where my schedule was clear and LM was in bed bang on 7pm. Today I thought I’d share with you my bathtime routine, because it really is one of the few parts of my life I have a dedicated routine for and I ensure I make time for it at least once a week. My bathtime routine is actually two parts, the…
