A week of moments with Popchips #GetPopped
Have you seen Popchips yet? They’re the potato crisp that has been popped rather than fried, so you’re getting all the taste, but only the half the fat content of a regular fried crisp. Last week Popchips were celebrating the launch of two flavours (Sea Salt and BBQ) in multi-packs of six, and as they believe that everyday should be filled with fun and uplifting moments I was challenged to take some time to enjoy a series...
Luxury Down Duvets – I swear, the duvet cuddled me (even for allergy sufferers).
When it comes to cuddling up for a comfy night’s sleep, the right duvet makes all the difference, doesn’t it? And even if we’re not talking comfort (and really, why wouldn’t you?), did you know that for every degree you turn down the thermostat you’ll save 1-2% on your heating bill during an eight-hour sleep cycle. That’s 10% over the course of a year! And obviously retaining natural body heat is...
Halloween, LittleStuff style…
We don’t do Trick or Treating – we never have. It’s a new thing that neither myself or Mr LittleStuff grew up doing, and it juts never sat right with me that I would take my children out to knock on a strangers door and expect sweets. I’m not morally opposed, I’m not hugely anti… it’s just not the way we ‘do’ Halloween. Instead, we tend to do what i did as a kid, and enjoy a...
Virtual Reality – it’s coming to a room near you.
It’s the next in our Tech Stuff for Baffled Parents series – where we try and help demystify the tech that your teen gamer is begging you for, and helping you make an informed choice on what to buy. This week we’re taking a serious look at Virtual Reality. I know, I know. Anyone who grew up in the 70’s and 80’s thinks of VR as a Tron-like weird and clunky network view while you’re wearing a headset...
Old School Red Leather Satchel? Oh my yes, Yoshi! | Review
I don’t know what it is, but I know I’m not alone in my love of the traditional leather satchel. I mean – how could you not, really? Practical, stylish, versatile… It’s everything you need. And so darn cute, too! And as we head into Autumn and the cooler months, I always seem to put away the cute little fabric bags and backpacks I’ve been using all summer, and reach for something sturdier and...
Spotted! Seriously *love* this Boreal Fisherman slouchy knitted beanie hat
I have decided. I need a new hat. And I want a slouchy knitted beanie hat. It’s always around now that I start rummaging in the hat box for the woolly ones. It’s not quite cold enough for a winter coat yet, but unless I’m running with the dog the cool late afternoon breeze can be a little chilly for just a jumper or a fleece. i find a nice woolly hat does the job perfectly, keeping my ears warm without roasting me....
