What do you do when you have some bananas to use up and a bag of pistachios? Obviously, you make Pistachio and Banana bread! 😂This Pistachio and Banana bread is a great twist on what's become a bit of a classic recipe over the last 12 months here in the UK. It's easy to make, super tasty and gives you a chance to use up bananas that are on the turn! The only thing I will say is that shelling pistachio nuts is NOT my favourite way to spend a Sunday morning - honestly, my thumbs are still sore a couple of hours later! And my 300g bag of pistachios ended up as just 100g of … [Read more...]
What can you give up for Lent to save money?
OK, so I know Lent officially started on Wednesday but better late than never, hey? What's the one thing you can give up between now and the 3rd of April that's going to save you money? In a way, you're lucky I'm late to the party because if you do decide to join in, you've had a few bonus days to enjoy whatever it is you're going to give up and you've only got 38 days to go until the end of Lent.Shall we start with me telling you what I'm going to give up? I've got three things... 1) Alcohol This one isn't too difficult if I'm being honest as I've not had much alcohol at all since … [Read more...]

Super cheap bathroom makeover…
If you follow my Five Frugal Things posts each week then you've probably seen some of the things I did for my super cheap bathroom makeover a couple of weeks ago but I thought I'd bring them all together in one post today!So, first up, I wasn't planning on a post so I don't actually have any before pictures but it was very much a blah room - nothing really wrong with it but nothing really right either and it was looking very dated as it's the only room in the house that's never had any attention other than a new floor. It's been top of my list for a makeover for so long but … [Read more...]

Music is a huge part of daily life and can really change your mood for the better so don't underestimate its power to lift your spirits. I thought I'd do a quick round-up of the best music streaming services available at the moment so you can decide which one, if any, is right for you.There are so many music streaming services about at the moment and I'll be honest, they're all very similar with no much to choose between them.

Homemade Pizza Recipe….
This homemade pizza recipe is about to become your most used recipe. Whether you're making it by hand or using your breadmaker, it never fails to impress!I first shared my homemade pizza recipe about five years ago and I'll be honest, it hasn't changed since then because there's no point messing with something that works every time, right? 😂 It's still a family meal that we have regularly and it's still a great way to use up leftovers and get the kids involved in cooking tea no matter how old they get. The idea of making pizza just seems to appeal to them so even if it … [Read more...]
