Sage Appliance’s waffle maker You will know by now if you are a regular reader that I am a huge fan of Sage Appliances. Huge. Massive. Everything they put their name to not only looks great, but works. Like properly works. The attention to detail is fabulous. Incorporating things that you never knew you wanted on a kitchen appliance until it is sitting in front of you on your worktop.
Dolce Gusto Review Earlier in the week I told you about my recently acquired love of coffee and how lucky we are to have a top of the range coffee machine. Now I freely admit that it is out of the price range of most people, even those that love their coffee as much as Mr B (who spent most of his student grant at uni on coffee). So
When we were approached by Lindeman’s wine and asked if we would like to be one of their #SunshineAmbassadors following our meeting them at Britmums, we couldn’t be happier. Because, well, you might not know this, but we do like a small glass of wine of an evening. I know I know, that has come as a shock to you I am sure. As will the knowledge that the day
We have been huge fans of SodaStream for a while now, so when we were asked if we wanted try out the new SodaStream Play we jumped at the chance. The idea is simple, as it always has been with SodaStream. The machines may have changed shape over the years and the array of drinks grown hugely, but underneath it the idea is the same: making fizzy drinks for a fraction
coffee This time last year I didn’t drink the stuff. Couldn’t stand it. Avoided the likes of Starbucks and Costa because I felt a fraud asking for a mug of Earl Grey. One Earl Grey teabag in a gallon of boiling water in a paper cup is never going to the be taste sensation I want it to be for £4.20. And then a thing happened. We went to
As you will know, I try and be a pretty positive person. I try to be optimistic and and upbeat. God knows I often miss the target but is it generally how I try to live my life, and our lives as a family unit. So when I saw there was an opportunity to interview THE Rebecca Romero about her role as the ambassador for the “Energizer Positive Energy Mum
I have always remembered the sunflowers growing in France. For me they are iconic and whenever I see them growing I think of France. But what I have never really been aware of previously is just how floral French towns are. There seem to be hanging baskets on every bridge. Beautifully tended gardens outside buildings. Pots outside houses. Window boxes on the smallest of ledges. Riots of colour dotted all
Well we survived. We are out the other side of our glamping experience at Camp Bestival. I thought I should share the 10 things I learned glamping there. Two nights and three days in a tent. In a field. With a queue for the loos and a queue for the showers. We did it. And even managed to do breakfast both mornings on a tiny one ring gas stove, and
I don’t really listen to Radio One if I can help it. It makes my ears bleed. And Radio 2 sends me to sleep if listen to anything other than Chris Evans. Nope, I am now a confirmed Radio 4 fan. So how on earth then does Jo Whiley make me smile? That, dear reader, is a very good question. I will tell you why. This blog is only three
I know. Can you believe that? Getting upgrades on flights these days are about as rare as hen’s teeth. Smiling sweetly to check in staff or wearing a posh frock is not enough anymore to get you bumped up to the next class of flight. Believe me. I have tried. Six years flying backwards and forwards to the middle east. Not one. Trips within the middle east? Not a chance.
This is it. The weekend I thought would never happen because I said I would never camp or go to a festival again. Well they say never say never and now here we are. <gulp> Camp Bestival we are ready for you. First off we have the essential charging kit which gets checked and double checked ahead of anything else: Then of course comes the essential tea and coffee kit:
Woohoo. My turn to host SatCap again this week. We decided to turn right out of the drive earlier this week rather than the usual left and see where the dirt track would lead us. Boringly out on to the same main road we have been going up and down all week, just further down. But not before we had driven past a derelict house. Well two houses in fact.
