I have been tagged in the Kreativ Blogger Award meme by the very talented Resewn Sally. I'm supposed to tell you seven things about myself that I would rather you didn't know and then tag seven other people. I don't have any deep dark secrets so this isn't exactly going to shock you but I'll do my best: I live in a beautiful new build house and have lived here for over a year now - I try to tell myself that I like the minimalistic look but really I've just been too lazy to sort out curtains for most rooms. I am the bad mother who lets her daughter go to school in pink shoes, … [Read more...]
Just in case I dissappear….
Just in case I suddenly dissapear, I thought I'd let you know that I'm defecting to the dark side AKA Wordpress so you might lose me for a day or so but then I'll be back with a vengeance! … [Read more...]
Please Mr Postman….
Why does the last day of the school holidays go so fast? We've had a lovely two weeks but I think the kids are both really looking forward to going back tomorrow.We always like to do something really fun on the last day of the school holidays but Miss Frugal's feet are still bad and she wasn't up to walking anywhere today so we decided to stay home and enjoy the weather in the back garden by having a barbecue.Now I'm sure we bought a barbecue in the sales at the end of last Summer but I couldn't find it anywhere today when we were looking for it so we ended up using some of those … [Read more...]
Ice-creams and Vegetables….
We've had a lovely day today in the sunshine,a nice relaxing morning followed by a trip to the park, a visit to the beach and topped off with ice creams.It might be a good idea here to point out that he trapped his middle finger in a gate at the park which is why he has it stuck up....The picture quality isn't too good as we were using Mr Frugal's I phone but they're actually better quality than I thought they would be. We've also finally got around to planting our vegetable pots - we have carrots, brocolli and tomatoes although we're probably going to get a few more tomorrow if we … [Read more...]
Who needs Dolmio….
In an effort to be even more of a perfect Domestic Goddess, I have just made my own tomato sauce, from scratch, without any help, on my own!It's super easy and cheap! I'm not good with technical terms but I just put some chopped onions and chopped garlic in a pan with a big glug of olive oil and cooked them until the onions were soft. I admit that I had some help with the stirring:Next comes the tomato bit, but seeing as Master Frugal doesn't like tomatoes he left this bit to his big sister. She added two tins of chopped tomatoes to the mixture and poured sprinkled in some … [Read more...]
The Clampets have left the building….
How typical is this, after a weekend of rain and hailstones the sun finally decides to pay us a visit on the day that Mr Frugal goes back to work! The weather was so bad that I didn't get chance to do my back garden over the weekend as planned so I thought I would have a go this afternoon while the sun is shining.I've already tidied the bins up and sorted the recycling boxes out, they are now hiding around the side of the house which I am sure Mr Frugal will have a whinge about as its about 10 foot further to walk to put the rubbish in the bin. The view outside my patio … [Read more...]
