I came home from work the other day to a beautiful present - a home made bottle of perfume!Remember when you were little and you thought that if you put petals in a bottle of water it made perfume? Someone (not me) has shared this with Miss Frugal and we now have five bottles of the stuff sitting outside our back door. Anybody want one? … [Read more...]
I’m back….
What with half term last week and the stressful week I've had this week I've not been around much. It's been horrible at work lately as there've been loads of rumours flying round about some big announcement that was coming, I usually try not to get caught up in rumours at work as it's a bit like chinese whispers but this time I just couldn't help it. Anyway, the announcement was made yesterday and while it does affect a lot of my colleagues, I am completely unaffected which is good for me but obviously the people who are affected are upset which makes me sad too. I'm off today to I'm … [Read more...]
The Gallery – My World….
THE PROBLEM: This week's theme for The Gallery is Still Life and I've wandered round the house this evening looking for something ordinary that I could somehow turn into a picture that would amaze you all with my fantastic photography skills. Unfortunately, I don't actually have much in the way of photography skills and the sun was shining outside making me want to go out and play with the kids. THE SOLUTION: We decided to go for a walk down our street to see if we could find beautiful things in our own street rather than the nature trail where we usually go for our walks. Voila -Fun … [Read more...]
Dilemma….
As the title suggests, I have a dilemma and need your help.I'm generally not a person who cares about household objects but I love, love, love my Smeg fridge. I've always wanted one and I bought a second hand one off someone at work last year for £150.00 - an absolute bargain considering they cost over £1000.00 when they're new. Look at it, it's beautiful. It's a lovely mint green colour that matches my kitchen lovely and I love it (have you noticed how many times I've said that?)BUT, lately it's developed a few 'little' issues. My mother in law snapped the door off the ice box … [Read more...]
The Gallery – Friendship….
I love the theme for this week's Gallery, I can't wait to see everyone's take on the theme of Friendship. I'm not going to say much this week (not like me lol) - I'm going to let the pictures do the talking. … [Read more...]
Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Tooth Fairy…?
A very exciting event has occurred this evening in the Frugal household - Master Frugal has lost his first tooth!At least it was exciting until it dawned on him that the tooth fairy would be paying him a visit tonight while he was asleep. To cut a long story short, after ten minutes of tears and trying to persuade him that the tooth fairy isn't evil, the tooth is now sitting on our TV cabinet in the living room. There was no persuading him to put it under his pillow so this was daddy's compromise (it was that or we were going to have to drop it off at Grandad's so the tooth fairy could … [Read more...]
