How to Look Your Best for a Pictorial
Many of us look at a photograph of a model and admire the flawless beauty captured on camera. We wonder how it’s done and how someone can look so perfect. We may even have friends who look better in pictures than they do in person. If you imagine that you are not photogenic, think again.

School Dinners Fudge Tart Recipe
Here we have it, by popular request, the next in the School Dinners Puddings recipe collection. D’you know, I didn’t actually remember this one. Not at all. Thick Fudge Tart? No clue.

Our Favourite Christmas Mugs for Teens – 2020 Edit
It’s a well known fact that the topselling gifts on Amazon are consistently mugs – and it’s the same for Christmas mugs, and twicely so for Christmas Mugs for Teens. We all have our favourites; and frankly you need a different one for every drink. The perfect tea mug is NOT a perfect coffee mug, and hot chocolate presents it’s own set of mug requirements.
