This week is going to be one of those week's where there simply aren't enough hours in the day!First up, let me share this week’s meal plan with you: Monday Today, I'm going to be reheating the amazing Goulash that I made yesterday using a recipe from the Pinch of Nom cookbook. Unfortunately, I can't share the recipe as it's obviously not mine but if you do get chance to get hold of the cookbook then you'll find it on page 140 and I guarantee you won't regret it!Just in case you were wondering why I was reheating it, I made it yesterday as I had plenty of time to spend … [Read more...]
Homemade moustache and beard balm….
This homemade essential oils moustache and beard balm is a perfect gift for Father's Day, obviously presuming the Dad in your life had a moustache or a beard! ;-)Mr Frugal decided a little while ago that he wanted to grow a cheeky beard and I'm not going to lie, we all hated it! He's most definitely not a beard person but it took him a little while to realise what we already knew and shave it off. ;-)In the three weeks that he was growing it, he not only struggled to keep it looking tidy which was necessary for his work but he also found it to be quite itchy at times as he … [Read more...]

I lost my way a little bit on my … [Read more...]
Instant Pot Chicken and Rice….
My Instant Pot Chicken and Rice recipe is one that I've been promising to share for a couple of months now but I've never gotten around to it as it isn't a 'pretty' meal that looks good in photos. We have a variation of this recipe every week and every week, I take a photo of my bowl before I tuck in but so far, I just haven't been able to do the meal justice at all!I've given up trying now so I thought I'd just go with what I have and hope you have faith that although it doesn't look amazing, it absolutely tastes it!Before I start with the recipe though, I do want to … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things we did this week {31 May 2019}….
Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that week just to show you that the small things you do all add up to a great frugal lifestyle where you can learn to live a fabulously frugal life.Before I start though, as always feel that I should say that being frugal to me is about getting the best value for our money - it's not about doing without for us or about not having nice things. We all have different financial situations and we're all frugal for different reasons. ;-)1) My favourite way to start these weekly posts is with a bunch of bargain flower and … [Read more...]
