The Kindness Cup

26 February 2010

At my daughter’s school they award a ‘Kindness’ cup weekly to a child who’s been…well kind, well behaved and an all round good kid.  This cup has been a source of amusement in our house since she was in nursery, as it only ever seemed to go to the same 10-15 children who all fit [...]

Cornishware Giveaway Competition – Open to UK & International

22 February 2010

Karma is a funny old thing.  A couple of weeks ago Paul broke 3 of my favourite mugs (a Cath Kidston and two Cornishware mugs) whilst getting out 3 matching white Ikea mugs for guests.

Laziest Ready Made Food Ever?

14 February 2010

I am a lazy cow…sorry time poor hardworking mother.  I readily admit to buying ready made custard (Waitrose YUM!), and ready grated cheese because my cheese grater insists on grating more of my knuckes than actual cheese. But I do draw the line at some things – ready made jacket potatos and pre-chopped onion being [...]

Rachel Ashwell – Shabby Chic

11 February 2010

I treated myself to this book a couple of weeks ago, as a result I was googling Rachel Ashwell and I stumbled across her blog.  I may have squealed a bit, she’s been such an inspiration to me over the years – all my made over furniture is down to her.  However you might not [...]
