I'm not going to lie, Fathers Day has been the furthest thing from my mind this week and in typical me fashion, I now have one day to sort a present. I also have two uncooperative children who have other plans for today meaning that a homemade gift is out of the question unless I make it myself and that's kind of not the point is it?So, while they're both out and about today I've asked them to get their Dad something they know he'll like to present to him tomorrow. This could turn out disastrously wrong or it could be quite sweet but I'll let you know either way.We don't really go … [Read more...]

The simple way to set up canned responses in Outlook….
How to set up canned responses in OutlookAs a blogger I get a lot of emails every day and whilst I know that's a good thing and not something to complain about I must admit that I find it hard sometimes to keep on top of my inbox as reply to everyone who needs a reply.I'm an Outlook fan and have used it for years but when I had seemingly un-fixable issues with my emails no longer syncing to Outlook on my laptop, I joined the dark side and moved over to Gmail.I'll be honest, I'm really not a fan of Gmail though and I struggled to get to grips with using it - it's not that it's … [Read more...]
No Bake Unicorn Fudge….
This super easy to make no bake unicorn fudge is a real showstopper!I woke up early this morning feeling refreshed after a good night's sleep so I got up and while everyone else was still asleep, I cleaned the kitchen, put some washing on, had a cup of tea and made a batch of unicorn fudge.You know, the usual Sunday morning activities. ;-)This recipe for Unicorn Fudge is great to make with the kids and would be brilliant as a homemade present or as a cute addition to a party buffet as it tastes great but looks even better. Miss Frugal would have loved this at any one … [Read more...]

The Gardens at Wynyard Hall in the Spring….
Last weekend we decided to leave the kids at home in bed for a cheeky Sunday morning lie in and head to Wynyard Hall Gardens to have a look around as we keep hearing about how they're a lovely place to spend a few hours.I had a look on the website before we set off and found that there's lots to do there - there's a Walled Garden, a Marquee Garden, an Edible Garden, a Victorian-inspired Glasshouse, a little Farm Shop and a Café serving yummy looking homemade cake. I think it was the cake that swung it for Mr Frugal as he's not really a wander around a garden kind of guy - he says it … [Read more...]
The most amazing homemade Guacamole you’ve ever tasted….
We're pretty new to the trendy world of avocados and guacamole but I think you'll agree that we've caught up fast with this amazing homemade Guacamole!When Miss Frugal and I went to New York last month we discovered Chipotle which is a kind of fast food chain but the food is Mexican and honestly, the most amazing food I've had in a long time. We had it for lunch on three of the days we were there as we enjoyed it so much and it was really good value for money compared to some of the other things we could have chosen from.We're a bit gutted that there's not a Chipotle near us … [Read more...]
