I regularly write about books and magazines I’ve been enjoying. I’ve read quite a few books lately but since finishing my last one, review coming soon …. I couldn’t resist picking up a copy of The Big Comic Relief Crafternoon to read. I’m a big fan of Mollie Makes and am still enjoying the Mollie Makes Creativity…
We’ve been pretty lucky with the weather this half term. We started the week with snow but today we barely needed coats. It’a lovely sign of the warmer weather to come. We spent the afternoon at the pretty village of Nunney which has an amazing castle we love to visit. Nunney Castle is a picturesque moated…

We used up some making a delicious Mincemeat and marzipan loaf but there was still some left over and I couldn’t…
This year I really want to visit more exhibitions at museums and galleries. I was a curator pre-children and really miss visiting exhibitions. Now my children are both at school and I’m looking for a job I figure I may as well visit as many as I can, whilst I can. So far this year…
My children are absolutely crazy about collecting the cards inside packs of BEAR Yoyos. Luckily they get through plenty of the fruity rolls as they are the perfect healthy addition to their packed lunch or snack.
