On the fifth day of Christmas my mummy bought for me – a Rastamouse that sings! (a 3D Puzzle, Club Penguin Gifts, fun festive crafts and a hamster dressed like royalty!). It’s Day 5 of my Christmas gift guide for little ones. Irie Man! The latest cult show to take the world by storm, pre-schoolers…
Gingerbread truffles
I can’t help but pop into a Hotel Chocolat whenever I walk past one. On my last visit I snapped up some of their gingerbread truffles, all in the name of research for this blog you understand. The pack contained six truffles, a super soft milk chocolate truffle with yummy gingerbread flavours of cinnamon, ginger…

Be prepared!
Yesterday I read on Facebook that one of my friends was putting up her Christmas tree. November seems a little early to me but her grand-daughter insisted! With Christmas just around the corner it’s the perfect time to get together to create some unique home-made decorations for your home. I’ve been busy ‘pinning’ crafty ideas…
Lottie Shaw’s Seriously Good Yorkshire Parkin
I’ve never tried parkin before but knowing it was some kind of ginger cake was happy when offered some of Lottie Shaw’s Seriously Good Yorkshire Parkin to try. It’s described as “a ginger cake predominantly baked using oatmeal and a perfect blend of syrup and black treacle”. It contains no artificial life enhancing ingredients but…
