After our amazing holiday to Cyprus earlier this year, we've decided to make our little mother and daughter holiday into an annual event which means we have lots more trips together to look forward to. We've also decided that we want to travel more as a family so after a good few years of holidaying in the UK, we're going to start to explore the world a little more.To record all of our travels, and to surprise Miss Frugal with the location of next year's mother and daughter trip, I decided to make her a bit of a travel journal. It's looking a bit empty at the moment but I hope that over … [Read more...]
Awesome conker crafts….
I might have mentioned on Facebook that we love getting out and collecting conkers at this time of year and that all we do with them is put them in a bowl so we can look at them and hope they really do keep spiders away.The very lovely Maggy from Red Ted Art was slightly horrified when she heard this as she pointed out there are so many conker crafts you can do with a plain old conker. Unconvinced,I asked her to give me some ideas and look at what she did - she wrote a whole list of conker crafts for me and has very kindly said I can share them with you all.I'll hand you over to … [Read more...]
Ten BRILLIANT ways to earn cashback….
I know I'm always going on about why you should use cashback sites to earn cashback but it's genuinely one of the easiest ways to boost your budget with very little effort! It takes no time at all and you earn money on things you were planning to buy anyway - it really is money for nothing in my opinion.I shared with you a bit of a cashback FAQ a little while ago but today I thought I'd share with you ten of the best cashback deals that I could find on one of the two cashback websites that I use, TopCashBack.You can sign up to TopCashBack using my link which means I get a few pounds … [Read more...]
Overnight Oats – what’s all the fuss is about?
Overnight Oats is my new favourite breakfast! It's filling, tasty and thanks to the fact that you make it the night before, it's also super quick on a morning when I'm rushing about. I can even pop it into my bag and eat it at work if I'm running late (which I often am). You can even make it Slimming World friendly.Overnight oats are something that I've heard about so many times both from fellow mums who want an easy breakfast option and from friends on Slimming World who swear by them for an easy but filling breakfast.Until a couple of week's ago, I'd never tried them because … [Read more...]
Remembrance…
This week marked the 12th anniversary of my brother's death and as always at this time of year, I've had a few tears and a week of feeling very bleugh.Twelve years on I'm at the point now where I can remember the good things without feeling as sad as I used to and whilst there's clearly no bright side or silver lining to losing him, I do often silently thank him for changing my life.He really did have a huge impact on my life and the way he dealt with his cancer battle genuinely changed my whole outlook on life. I feel a bit odd even thinking let alone writing it down but my life … [Read more...]
Days Out: An afternoon at Brighton Sealife Centre…
When I asked Miss Frugal what she wanted to do when we had a week away at Butlins in Bognor Regis recently, she had just two requests - she wanted to visit the Brighton Sealife Centre and also see if we could find where Zoella lives in Brighton so we could drive past her house.They're the only things she asked to do the whole week so we headed off to Brighton one day in the middle of our week to see what we could do. We thought the Sealife centre would be the easiest thing to start with but we really struggled with parking as the Sealife centre itself doesn't have parking nearby that we … [Read more...]
