Homemade Lemonade is the most amazing, refreshing drink that you can have on a hot day!We first shared a mint version of our homemade lemonade a few years ago when we had an over-enthusiastic mint plant growing on our kitchen windowsill and a glut of fresh lemons from the reduced section at the shop and it was amazing! Since then, we've tried all sorts of different lemonade flavours - blueberry, peach, strawberry and even a lavender flavour and they've all been lovely but on a hot day, the most refreshing version is definitely just plain old homemade lemonade with no … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things we did this week {7th August 2020}….
Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that week just to show you that the small things you do all add up to a great frugal lifestyle where you can learn to live a fabulously frugal life. Hey! 👐1) As always, my favourite way to start one of these weekly posts...These ones look a bit sad but they only cost 50p so I'm hoping they might cheer up once they've had a soak.

Instant Pot Tomato Sauce (with optional hidden veg)….
Instant Pot tomato sauce with hidden veg is your secret weapon when it comes to meal planning!I've shared my slow cooker tomato sauce recipe loads of times because it's been a key ingredient in so many of our meals since the first time I made it. It's versatile, easy to make and super cheap so I make it whenever I'm having a big batch cooking session and freeze it in different sized portions.I have some small-sized portions that I defrost when we need pizza toppings or as a topping for chicken (kind of like Hunters chicken) and larger-sized portions for things like pasta … [Read more...]

This cute little daily Slimming World tracker is exactly what you need if you're following the Slimming World plan! Before I share my daily Slimming World tracker with you, I thought I'd tell you why I'm sharing it with you today. ☺️The day that Slimming World classes were cancelled at the start of Lockdown was the day I gave myself a bit of a free pass under life got back to normal. I didn't have time to go to the online Zoom alternative classes as I was always at work when they happened snd to be fair I decided that there was enough going on in the world … [Read more...]
