Tuna pasta bake recipe

Posted on November 3, 2012March 11, 2018 by jenny

I love eating fish and always make sure the toddler eats a healthy portion at least once a week too. One of our favourite recipes is for tuna pasta bake. It’s really quick to put together and I always make plenty so I can freeze a couple of portions. Ingredients: Dried pasta (I usually use…

Home baking made easy

Posted on July 9, 2012March 26, 2019 by jenny

As a home baker I love products which make it easy to whip up a batch of biscuits or cakes for the hungry hordes. I love the Dr Oetker range so was really pleased when they asked me to try out some of their latest products. We’re not usually a family who eats pudding but…

Fun with Miffy

Posted on July 9, 2012November 18, 2012 by jenny

Little Sis was sent some lovely Miffy products to review. We’re huge fans of Miffy toys and still play with the Miffy rattle car that the toddler had when he was younger. To add to her toy collection she was sent the Miffy Soft Activity Cube. This is new and exclusive from Holland, a chunky…

What I’m reading: Marshmallow Madness

Posted on July 8, 2012May 25, 2014 by jenny

As a home baker with a *very* sweet tooth I was happy to receive a copy of Marshmallow Madness by Shauna Sever to review. It may be summer but with the wet weather it’s also pretty  good to hide indoors from the rain drinking hot chocolate with whipped cream and marshmallows. I didn’t ever think…

LEGO Batman 2: DC Heroes

Posted on July 2, 2012August 30, 2022 by jenny

It’s not often I’m offered a product that I know my husband would love but Warner Brothers recently asked if we would be interested in a copy of LEGO Batman 2: DC Heroes to review. As I mention all the time *we love Lego* so it was a big fat yes please! Batman and Robin return…

As part of my role as a morphy richards innovator we have been trying out a new kettle and toaster from the new Colour Boutique range.

Socialising without the worry

Posted on June 17, 2012October 25, 2024 by jenny

With two teething children under 27 months I have to say I don’t drink much any more. The thought of getting up in the middle of the night to look after my children after I’d had a couple of drinks just doesn’t bear thinking about and I don’t think I could cope with my two…

Making bath time fun

Posted on June 10, 2012April 28, 2013 by jenny

I often find bath times can be quite stressful with two children. Lately I’ve been putting the baby in her bath in the big bath with the toddler. This way they both have a bath and seem to enjoy each others’ company. The baby loves kicking her feet and splashing and the toddler loves playing…

Zoflora review

Posted on May 15, 2012January 21, 2013 by jenny

I can’t resist a good old British heritage brand and I’ve recently been trying Zoflora*, the UK’s favourite household disinfectant brand, which is celebrating its 90th birthday this year. Zoflora is still manufacturing in its Huddersfield factory, since the brand began in 1922, and is known for its fragranced antibacterial disinfectant products. Originally created for…
