It’s that time of the week for my Monday happy list: – I was given 48 hours notice to dress my 3 year old as a Superhero for nursery and I managed to make her a Supergirl costume thanks to some clever upcycling of the ladybird costume I made last year. Phew. – We baked…

What I’m reading: The Teashop on the Corner
This weekend I’ve enjoyed finishing The Teashop on the Corner by Milly Johnson, the latest book from the Bahlsen Book Club. I received a copy of the book as well as two packs of delicious chocolatey Bahlsen biscuits. Spring Hill Square is a pretty sanctuary away from the bustle of every day life. And at…
What I’m reading: Me Without You by Kelly Rimmer
These chilly evenings are perfect for curling up with a book. I’m not a huge tv fan so love to have several books and magazines on the go. Bahlsen Biscuits kindly sent me a copy of Me Without You by Kelly Rimmer to read which is the latest Bahlsen Book Club book. They also sent…

I have to be honest and…
What I’m reading: The Forgotten Daughter
I’ve just finished reading a book I’ve been telling all my friends about. The Forgotten Daughter by Renita D’Silva was one of those books I was able to get into straight away and looked forward to reading a couple of chapters every evening. “You were adopted” Three simple words, in a letter accompanying her parent’s…
What I’m reading: The School Gates by Nicola May
One of the things I’m trying to do this year is make more time for myself. That might sound easy but, with a demanding 2 and 4 year old around, I rarely get any time to myself before 7pm. So I’ve been trying to cut down on the hours spent online where I do nothing…
