Today I'm sharing the third post in my 'What we ate in a week' series!The plan with these posts is that I start writing this post the Monday before you read it each month and just update it each night with a photo of what we had for our tea that day. It worked pretty well so far so let's see if I'm as good this time... MondayToday we had slow cooker turkey chilli which we prefer to normal beef chilli these days. It's hard to describe the difference that using turkey mince makes to the meal but it's delicious. It's not as heavy if that makes sense. TuesdayTonight's … [Read more...]
35 Things to do with the kids at Easter….
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... You can never go wrong with making a bored jar. Or you could make your own Easter Egg hunt for the … [Read more...]
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...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {23rd February 2018}….
1) I love starting these posts with some lovely bargain flowers whenever I can because I just love having fresh flowers in my house. I tend to pop to the shop for them specifically on a night specifically through the week and I try not to pay for than a pound or two for the flowers that I buy. I seem to have mastered the timing for our local supermarket to get there just after they do the last reductions which is around 7.30 in the evening for my shop.This is actually 3 bunches of daffodils that were reduced to 25p a bunch.I used to think of fresh flowers as a waste of money but … [Read more...]
Eggstra Easy Easter Cupcakes {with a free Easter Cupcake Topper Printable}….
See what I did there with the title. ;-) I wanted to make some fancy Easter cupcakes to share with you today - the plan was that would wow you with my cooking prowess but the reality was very different. The cakes didn't look anything like they were meant to so I thought I'd share a few easy Easter cupcake ideas with you instead.Now, these ideas aren't necessarily Pinterest worthy but they taste amazing, they're easy to make and they have a definite Easter theme so let's just go with it...First up, the recipe I use for my cupcakes (they're all chocolate today) is a simple one that I … [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...]
