Favourite & popular blog posts of 2014

As we welcome 2015, I thought it would be a good time to look back on my favourite and most popular posts of 2014. I have had mega happy posts, and I’ve also had awfully depressive posts (literally). I’ve started heading the way of food blogging and the recipes seem to be going down well – I hope to post even more this year though. I’ve also been lucky enough to receive some great items to review – just one of the perks! Favourites One of my favourite reviews of this year was the Snoozle maternity slide sheet – I only wish …

Reflections on the year that was 2014

It’s the end of the year 2014 and a time to reflect on how it has been.

Review – Old El Paso

Hubby & I both love Mexican food and although I do love cooking from scratch, sometimes it’s nice to be able to just throw something together from a packet when I’m feeling tired or lazy, and especially when it’s from a brand like Old El Paso.

Merry Christmas!

I’m having a break for a few days over Christmas to spend some quality time with my little family, so there are a few scheduled posts (maybe I can get into this routine in the New Year too!). I’m not sure who will be reading today as I should hope you are spending time with your families too, but I would just like to wish all of my readers a very merry Christmas and I hope Santa has been good to you! See you in a few days!
