Starting my week with the Weekly Edit is a ritual I’ve kept for years. It’s my favourite Monday morning anchor—a chance to slow down, celebrate the ‘small wins,’ and gather the smiles from the week behind us. Part reflection and part record-keeping, it’s my way of documenting our family’s adventures before the next chapter begins.

The Weekly Edit {Week 3/2026}

I love seeing the first daffodils of the year. We were lucky to see really early daffodils when we visited Hughenden a few weeks ago. I saw bunches of cut daffodils in the supermarket and couldn’t resist buying some to cheer the living room up.

Last week we used up two of the gingerbread house kits we had bought for Christmas. We made mini gingerbread house kits from a Sainsbury’s kit, and then turned the Ikea gingerbread house kit into a delicious gingerbread cheesecake.

I finished reading The Other Bennet Sister by Janice Hadlow. I loved this book so much and really wanted to read it before the tv adaptation comes out later this year. The book tells the story of Mary Bennet, the middle sister of the Bennet girls from Pride and Prejudice. I loved Mary so much, perfect for anyone who feels a little bookish and overlooked in favour of their siblings.

My winter Craftpod sub box arrived before Christmas and I finally got round to starting it this week. The box features a fun robin collage style project which I’ve been enjoying stitching whilst watching Red Eye.

What would make it onto your ‘Weekly Edit’ today? I’d love to hear your highlights!
