Although I haven’t stuck to my meal plan every week so far, I’m surprised that I’ve actually managed to keep going for this long. Any other time I’ve tried, it’s only lasted a week! I am finding it so much easier though with regards to wastage and time for making meals, as I know the evening before what we are going to have so I’m not rooting around looking for something the next day, and any leftovers hubby usually takes to work for his lunch. Last week I managed to stick to plan other than Sunday when we went to my father-in-law’s …
Stockeld Park – The Summer Adventure | Review
I’ve mentioned a couple of times previously that we rarely plan days out as we never know when hubby’s day off will be, so any time we get the chance to do something fun, I’m very eager. We were recently invited to Stockeld Park for the VIP preview of their Summer Adventure opening, and I couldn’t wait to take my boys! After watching the preview video on their website, I was so excited.
Review – Ozeri Elite Chef ceramic knife set
You may remember I recently reviewed the Stone Earth Pan by Ozeri and fell in love with it. I was recently invited to review the Ozeri Elite Chef Black Ceramic 3-Piece Knife Set and obviously couldn’t refuse!

After reading the description I couldn’t …
Review – Sterimar (baby & congestion relief)
No matter what the season – spring, summer, autumn or winter – someone in our household always has a cold. It’s usually me, I think I have a weak immune system. The feeling of having a blocked nose is awful [majorly annoying] for me, never mind for babies who can’t really communicate and need their nose to breathe through. I was recently invited to test out Sterimar. Sterimar is a natural sea water nasal spray which can be used to provide relief from and help to clear up congestion, colds, allergies, rhinitis, sinusitis and rhino-pharyngitis. We tested two of the products …
Feeding the ducks
Yesterday was a lovely day here in North Lincolnshire and it was hubby’s day off work, so instead of the mundane tasks around the house that we had originally planned, instead we decided to take J to feed the ducks and have a picnic by the river. Feeding ducks is one of J’s favourite activities and he loves to carry the bag of bread to the car and keeps hold of it all the way there. Recently we even discovered that ducks like sweetcorn! (We were going on the way home from Nanna’s and she had no bread so gave …
