Our March 2017

Since May last year I have been joining in with Suburban Mum’s Our Favourite Five link up, but she recently decided to call it quits; thanks for hosting for all that time, Maria! I really enjoyed joining in though as it’s lovely to look back on what I sometimes feel has been a bad month, and see that we did have good times; so I’ve decided to carry on with monthly posts, in pretty much the same format, but just a slightly different title! Anyway, March is always a busy month for us with Noah’s birthday at the beginning, and Jacob’s …

Tree change for the elderly

Updated on

Today, more and more baby boomers are opting for a tree change. If you’ve been living under a rock and don’t know what a tree change refers to then here’s some useful info for you. Popular among elderly Australians, tree change is a term that describes the shift from an urban life to living in a more country/rural setting.

5 Questions to Ask Yourself before Buying Toys for Your Baby

Updated on

There are countless choices available when one visits the kid’s aisle in a shopping mall. There are multiple fuzzy little stuffed toys, some manly plastic solider kits, shiny card and train sets and colourful educational books with in-built sensory learning equipment. What makes it so hard for parents to pick one is that every toy insists it’s the best. Your little one would love cars, soldiers, puzzles and stuffed toys alike. So what to get him as a present for his birthday? We understand the dilemma all parents put themselves through when they go shopping for toys for boys, which …

Apple, carrot & raspberry juice | Recipe

Updated on

I recently posted my thoughts on the Slow Juicer from Panasonic; this recipe is the first juice I have ever made. On first thoughts you may think – apple and raspberry, yes; apple and carrot, maybe; but mix them all together and it seems a bit of an odd combination. Raspberry juice isn’t one that is come across very often. I can tell you though, it is delicious.
