Today I have 11 Incredible Infused Water Recipes for you to use to liven up your water!I'll be honest, I'm not a water infusion kind of drinker!I'm more of a tap water drinker and could easily drink pints of it every day but Miss Frugal is a whole different kettle of fish. She prefers to drink bottled water or make her own fruit infusions which she assures me are very popular these days although I'll have to take her word for it.She's on a mission to convert me because infused water is the future apparently but some of the combinations she's made me try have not been nice at … [Read more...]
Copycat Starbucks Drink Recipes….
Today, I'm going to share with you a few copycat Starbucks drink recipes with you!When Miss Frugal and I went to New York last year, we must have spent more time in Starbucks than we did in our hotel thanks to the free wifi and the reasonably priced drinks to enjoy while Miss Frugal shared everything we'd been up to with her friends on Snapchat and I caught up on some work emails.I'm not a huge coffee drinker but there were a couple of drinks that we definitely developed a love of - chai latter, lime refreshers and the passion tea lemonade are definitely top of our favourite drinks … [Read more...]
Quick and Easy Jelly Gummy Bears….
Today we're sharing out tried and tested (and re-tested) version of jelly gummy bears (and some syn free gummy sweets using the same recipe) along with a slightly embarrassing Pinterest fail version of their American cousins.The last time I made these I made Pink Prosecco jelly gummy bears and they were amazing....My children are obsessed with anything American - be it sweets, food or make-up (that last one is just Miss Frugal obviously ;-)) so when we found ourselves with a box of Jell-O they knew exactly what they were going to make - Jell-O Gummy … [Read more...]
Four of my most spectacular Pinterest fails….
It's not exactly a secret that I'm not the most crafty of bloggers but I do like to try and be as creative as often as I can- not always with the best results though! Today I'm going to share some of my most spectacular Pinterest fails....I love Pinterest and get a lot of my inspiration from things that I see on there but the problem is, not being very creative and not wanting to spend money on extra materials means that often, I try and re-create something I've seen on Pinterest my own way. Sometimes this works well for me but others, not so much.Here's a few of the times when … [Read more...]
The Great Frugal Bake Off – Me Vs Betty Crocker….
Totally unrelated to the Great British Bake Off, which returned to TV this week, Miss Frugal challenged me to a bit of a bake of of our own when she said that the cookies she made at her friends using a Betty Crocker packet mix were better than my homemade chocolate chip cookie recipe!I couldn't have her thinking that a packet mix was better than cooking something from scratch could I?So while she spent about two minutes making up the packet mix we bought (for the purposes of the experiment ha ha), I dug out my trusty homemade chocolate chip cookie recipe and made my own … [Read more...]
Three Prom dresses for under £7.50….
A couple of months ago I was sat with Miss Frugal watching a TV show about a group of girls getting ready for their proms and the cost of some of the dresses they were wearing was astronomical - I'm talking a month's worth of food shopping budget on the dress alone. By the time you add on the shoes, the bag and the professional hair and make up, you could probably pay for a family holiday!We have a good year or so left before we need to start thinking about prom and all that comes with it but I decided to prove to Miss Frugal that you don't need to spend a small fortune on a dress by … [Read more...]
