It occurred to Miss Frugal last weekend that we were going to be in New York not long after St Patricks day so she spend a good 15 minutes excitedly Googling and trying to find out if the Shamrock Shake will still be selling in McDonalds at that point. We're still none the wiser to be honest but when she was searching online, she came across our very own copycat recipe from a few years ago in the search results so she decided to give up on the Googling and just make her own version.Seeing as it's almost St Patricks Day, I thought I'd re-share the original post for you guys too in case … [Read more...]
Oreo Frappuccinos are my new favourite drink….
Remember I said that Miss Frugal was saving for New York and wanted to earn some extra money by sharing some DIYs on here? Well, this is one of those posts and I'm actually really pleased with the way it turned out, especially as I discovered my new favourite drink thanks to my role of 'chief Oreo frappuccinos tester'!I'll hand you over to Miss Frugal now, seeing as she's charging me for the pleasure.... ;-)Hi,Today I made Oreo Frappuccinos for the first time and they worked out really well so my Mam said I could share them with you. I hope you like them as much as we … [Read more...]
5 Minute Nutella Fudge
Nutella fudge is something that I've been meaning to make for at least the last two years but I've never actually got round to making it though because there are at least a million Nutella fudge recipes online (me, exaggerate?) and each one of them seems a little different.I've read comments on posts where people have had a disaster with theirs not setting and I've also read comments where it hasn't been Nutella-y enough. Wasting perfectly good Nutella is not something my children would forgive me for so I just never ended up making it.But when I was planning my Christmas … [Read more...]
Review: November Birchbox….
It's been a few months since Miss Frugal has done a review of her monthly Birchbox subscription box but she loved this month's box that much that she asked if she could share it with you.....Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics - Lip Tar Primer This is supposed to help keep your lipstick in place and looking good for longer which basically means it makes your lipstick stay on for longer than usual. It works and it feels really nice and doesn't feel sticky on your lips like some do. It smells minty because of the peppermint oils in it.Marcelle - BB Cream Golden Glow Illuminator This … [Read more...]
Budget DIY Lush Oatifix Facemask….
I might have mentioned in the past that Miss Frugal has a slight obsession with Lush which has resulted in rather a lot of her pocketmoney being spent in our local store in the past.The problem for her is that she's now trying to save up for our trip to New York next year so she's decided no more Lush until we get back - which should in fact be quite easy considering that she has at least a year's supply of bath bombs in her room somewhere!Because she isn't buying anything from Lush right now, she's been scouring Pinterest for her favourite products to see if she can make her own … [Read more...]
Super Easy Homemade Bath Bombs….
Miss Frugal has been asking me for ages now if she can have a go at making her own bath bombs and I always put her off because there are so many different methods of making them out there that call for ingredients I wouldn't normally have in the house.It finally got to the point where I couldn't put her off any longer so last weekend, I gathered the ingredients we needed and sat and watched her make her version of homemade bath bombs and actually, they came out OK. I don't think we're going to be up there with Lush but I do think that she might actually be able to pull of her plan to … [Read more...]
