This cute little hot chocolate stirring stick is so cute for this time of year - there's nothing better after a long walk in the cold than coming home to a lovely hot chocolate and stirring it with one of these yummy stirring sticks!They're so easy to make but look fab and when the kids have friends round, they all absolutely LOVE the novelty of these. How to make a Hot Chocolate Stirring Stick What you use is pretty flexible depending on what you have, this time I used some white chocolate star sprinkles, some mini marshmallows and half a leftover bar of dark cooking chocolate but … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {17 November 2017}….
1) Miss Frugal's phone bill with Giff Gaff is getting cheaper every month! When we were with EE she was running out of data (on a 4GB a month plan) within the first two weeks of the month. We switched to Giff Gaff and went with the £20 a month unlimited package with is 6GB or superfast data and unlimited 3G data after that's gone and thought that would do us. We told her to always connect to wifi when she could and to be sensible with her usage when she wasn't on wifi (no videos etc) and would you believe it? She actually listened!After two months we dropped the package down to the 4GB … [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...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {10 November 2017}….
1) Instead of having a fireworks display at home as we planned (until we worked out how much it would cost) we ended up going to an organised fireworks display which was lovely and completely free! We had been planning a bit of a display at home because last year we found the display at the rugby club in town to be really busy with way too many people crammed in but this year we went to a display in a village near where we live and it was much, much better.We obviously had sparklers at home but they were quite cheap - I think there were five for a pound in the packs we bought!2) … [Read more...]
Yummy Avocado Brownies….
Miss Frugal has gone avocado mad lately and would have Avocado toast for every meal if I let her. When we found ourselves with a bit of an avocado overload last weekend, we decided to switch it up a bit and make avocado brownies!First of all, I want to tell you how we ended up with so many avocados because we all know that they're not a particularly cheap thing to buy. Morrisons have started selling wonky fruit and vegetables and I found a pack of wonky avocados which had about five for £1.56 so I bought a pack but forgot we already had a two pack at home.We've been meaning to … [Read more...]
Visiting the Top of the Rock, New York….
I know it's been about six months since our trip to New York but there's still so much that I want to share with you! Today's post is all about visiting the Top of the Rock!Visiting the Top of the Rock was at the top of my must-see list when we were planning what we were going to do during our trip to New York but due to a fear of heights, it was actually at the bottom of Miss Frugal's list and she really, really didn't want to do it!The Top of the Rock is the name of the attraction at the top of the 70 floors high Rockerfeller Centre in case you were wondering. ;-)I managed … [Read more...]
