"Hi, my name is Cass and I am creatively challenged" Surely, I'm not the only mum in the world who is not very good at crafts, I make the effort and we actually do quite a lot of crafty things but not many of them turn out like they were supposed to. My favourite crafts are the ones that take hardly any preparation and as little mess as possible so I thought I would start a Quick Craft Club to share my mess free easy kids crafts with you each week. If you've got any ideas or would like me to feature you in the next Quick Craft Club then leave a link to your post in the comments … [Read more...]
Warning, Cute Photo Alert….
We've had a bit of an ongoing argument in the Frugal house - about the sort of dog we wanted. In fact, it's been going on for so long that I'd just about given up hope of us ever getting a dog. Mr Frugal wants a German Shepherd or a Labrador and I want a Bichon Frise ;-) He wants a 'manly' dog that he won't feel embarassed about walking and I want a cute little dog that doesn't molt everywhere. The problem was that neither of us wanted to give in.... Until last night when for some reason, he changed his mind and said that if I really wanted one, I could have one!To say I was stunned … [Read more...]
Would you buy presents off Ebay….
I know I'm early with the Christmas post but it's because I have to start my Christmas planning earlier than usual. You see, Christmas used to be paid for using my quarterly bonus from work which I got in November every year but this year (due to a promotion at work) my bonus is now paid half yearly which means no Christmas bonus ;-(So far I've been getting a few bits and bobs here and there when I've been out and about shopping but today I remembered I had a bit of money in my Paypal account so I thought I'd pop on to Ebay and see if there were any bargains to be had. Able to steer clear … [Read more...]
Exploding Cupboards and Ice Cream Cupcakes….
Do anyone else's kitchen cupboards look like a corner shop had exploded in them? Mine are in a right mess so my mission today is to sort them out and find ways to use up all the odd bits and bobs that I seem to have accrued. The first thing I came across was half a packet of those flat ice cream cones and I was tempted to just throw them out as we've had them for ages but then I remembered seeing some cupcakes on sale somehere that were baked in these type of cones so.... I though I would have a go.I used my own version of a red velvet cupcake mix which Miss Frugal thought was really … [Read more...]
Do you love anyone enough….
.... to give them your last Rolo?Mr Frugal's just come in from work and presented me with his last Rolo. How sweet is that? However, the fact that he's had it in his pocket since his lunch break does put me off eating it - I think prefer the silver Loveheart he bought me for Christmas. … [Read more...]
The Gallery – Food
The theme for this week's Gallery is right up my street and even allows for a shameless plug of the new Frugalicious Food website that myself and Jen from TheMadhouse have set up.
