Welcome to my House….
I love my house, probably more than you should love a house but there you go. I think it's because I hated my last house, I won't go into the details but to cut a long story short we had nothing but bad luck the whole time we lived there! When I finally convinced Master Frugal to move (after only a two years in our last house and in a very poor housing market) we looked at loads of houses but couldn't find 'The One', although we found plenty that came close. I have a thing about straight stairs (don't ask, I haven't got a clue ;-)) and Mr Frugal wanted to … [Read more...]

Cooking With Kids….
Last week I told you all about my new Cooking with Kids challenge and I really hope that as many of you as possible will join in with me. Basically, the idea is that I will post a recipe here on a Monday and you will have two weeks to make the recipe and either post about in or if you'd prefer, send me an e mail with your pics in it in that in two weeks time I can do a carnival type post containing links to all entries (lots of linky love for you) and I will ask someone, probably whoever's on Twitter at the time, to pick me a winner who will then be sent a lovely prize.We're going to … [Read more...]
