    {Giveaway} Modern Gingerbread by Sandra Monger

    November 9, 2020 - By 

    It’s no secret that I’m a fan of gingerbread. I love baking it, decorating it and eating it! I’m not sure where it all started but now I find myself with gingerbread inspired necklaces, flavoured lip balm and even a gingerbread Christmas jumper. Gingerbread is delicious all year round and is easy to adapt to any occasion. Although we love gingerbread men and houses, we’ve also used our love of gingerbread to create gingerbread Death Star cookies, gingerbread Iron Golem biscuits and even Mr Twit’s beard! I was really happy to receive a copy of Modern Gingerbread to review. Modern Gingerbread…

    Win a Halloween H-Box from Hotel Chocolat

    I love October but the constant rain today has been miserable. The children were really looking forward to a trip to the pumpkin patch but unfortunately this was cancelled due to the weather. In need of a little cheering up, we broke open the Halloween chocolates and sweets! We enjoy Autumn and love nothing more than enjoying some sweet treats whilst watching a family film. We couldn’t resist the Halloween H-Box from Hotel Chocolat. The classic chocolate box is filled to the brim with 14 frighteningly flavoursome chocolates including a mixture of classics and Halloween specialities. Dare to take a…

    Win The Binge Watch Guide

    September 12, 2020 - By 

    Like most families, we’ve spent a lot of time watching series and films over the last 6 months. We love family film night but have been spending so much time together that it’s been good to discover new things to watch. We all seem to like different types of shows so there has been a lot of negotiating as to what everyone is happy to watch. We have Netflix, Sky, Amazon Prime and Disney+ so are spoilt for choice which is why I was excited to hear about The Binge Watch Guide from Welbeck Publishing. The Binge Watch Guide: The…

    Win two picture books for kids from Trigger Publishing

    August 26, 2020 - By 

    With children hopefully going back to school next week I’m sure there are lots of anxiety and nerves (from both parents and children!). I know that from speaking to my own children they both have mixed feelings about returning to school after so long. I’m sure it is the right time to go back to school for them and I’m hoping that the last few months will be forgotten as soon as they step through the school gates next week. I have two picture books to giveaway from Trigger Publishing which will help encourage conversation and promote wellness which is…

    Walking & Countryside Contemplations books {giveaway}

    August 9, 2020 - By 

    One thing I’ve loved over the last few months has been the chance to explore where we live. We live on the edge of London which is the best of both worlds – a fast train into London and countryside at the end of our road. We’ve loved exploring our local area and have walked through ancient woodlands, discovered country parks and old country estates during the lockdown period. I’ve loved the slower pace of life. Contemplation Series from Trigger Publishing I was recently gifted two books from the Contemplation Series from Trigger Publishing. These pocket sized books are beautifully packaged…
