It's very rare that I write a review of something I bought myself but every now and again, I buy something that I love that much that I want to share with you.Today I want to tell you all about my Breville Blend Active blender which I bought from Tesco from £24 about two months ago. You can buy it all over though and there seem to be different model numbers available but as far as I can see the different model numbers refer more to the number of bottles you get with the blender rather than anything different with the blender itself.I wanted a new smoothie maker as the one I had was … [Read more...]

Siblings – November….
The last month has seen a huge change in Miss Frugal, as she finds her feet in Secondary school she is making lots of new friends and wants to spend lots of time on a night face-timing and texting them all.
