Back in January, I shared a post that I called 35 ways to slow down and simplify your life. I realise now that sharing so many ways to slow down and simplify life could be a bit counter-productive so I thought I'd dial it down a bit and share the five most important (to me) ways that are easy to get started with...With the ever-growing demand to be busy in life, it’s no wonder more and more people are feeling overwhelmed. Stress has taken over people in society and it’s unacceptable. Life simply seems too busy sometimes and then everything seems to get out of control. While life will … [Read more...]

The Easter Holidays are fast approaching so I thought I'd share some ideas on things to do with the kids at Easter...After a Christmas filled with germs and bugs and a half term where we were pretty much wiped out after a start to the year filled with sniffles, coughs and sneezes, we're determined to make the most of the Easter holidays!We plan to get out and about as much as possible but knowing the British weather, we also have lots of ideas for indoor fun ready to go too...

Today’s Bargain Beauty Haul….
Today, I popped into town with Miss Frugal to track down some reasonably priced thermals ready for when she goes skiing with the school next month and although we didn't manage to find thermals, I did manage to pick up some quite good little beauty bargains that I thought you might be interested in. Tanya Burr Cosmetics BargainsI've heard good things about the Tanya Burr lipsticks so when I saw them reduced from £6.99 to 99p in our local Superdrug I was all over it! I went for 'Sunday Walk' and because I loved it so much and it was such a bargain, I bought two. It's a lovely nude colour … [Read more...]

How to make butter from cream….
Have you ever tried making homemade butter from cream? I hadn't until recently but now that I have, I'm a huge fan!I don't know about you but I often come across yellow stickered cream in the supermarket reduced section at the end of the day but I tend to just leave it there because I'm unsure how well it freezes and I had no idea what else to do with it to use it up on the day I buy it. I can't be the only one because cartons of double cream are a regular in the reduced section in our supermarket and it's often reduced massively - maybe because it's something that's often left on … [Read more...]
95 Cheap Date Night (or day) Ideas….
Today seemed like a good day to re-share my list of date night ideas because, although I don't really 'do' Valentines Day as such, I do think it's important to spend some time with your partner as a couple. It's so easy to focus elsewhere and prioritise other things ahead of your relationship but just a little time together every now and again will do you wonders. Honest!{Updated for 2018 as I was just going to write a similar post when I realised I'd already written one that I could just add too}As much as I love my children and love being a parent, I think it's also really … [Read more...]
