Puppies and Soldiers in the garden…
… and an attractive Death Stalker (apparently) too. The puppy, of course The Soldier – hat and jacket models own. Sigh. The Death Stalker. Lovely. We’ve been sent a pack of face paints by the fab people at Snazaroo, so with a holiday afternoon meandering past and no one having any better suggestions I offered to paint a face. Or three. Well – my dodgy artistic efforts aside (GCSE art wasn’t much help) it...
Stripy Blankets!
Stand by for a bit of a love fest. See, I do love soft things. And stripy things. And lovely coloured things. And the blankets from the Stripy Blankets Company? All those things. Oh yes. And spots too. You need one. No, honestly. This blanket is perfect, and Pink adores it nearly as much as I do. And the best thing is that it’s such good quality I can see her still using it in 20 years time. Despite her best ministrations, this...
Spotted! Would you just LOOK at this notebook…
Well now. Yes, I admit it, I’m a sucker for a lovely notepad. What is less well known (though not exactly rare) is that I also happen to be a sucker for all things Penguin (thats the orange book designs, not the black and white cold birds. Though they’re sweet too. Or the chocolate biscuits. Which actually I’m not so fond of, though chocolate is chocolate in a pinch). And of course all things Jane Austen. So. Ta Da!...
Spotted! Bestest overnight bag in the world.
So, last week I was whisked off for a spa break by my loveliest of lovelies friend. Fabulous, yes? Well… actually… Cue much angst. What the heckster was I to put my things in? I needed a big-enough-but-none-too big bag, perfect for overnight-ing sans small people. As is always the way, only when I need an object do I suddenly realise I haven’t one in my possession. Such was the case last week (case? Did you see what...
Breville Hot Cup Review
I’ve been trying to write a review of the Breville Hot Cup for days and I’ve found it really hard. Because I assume you want to know more than “It’s great! Buy one!” But it really is great and it’s really simple too so there’s not that much to say. It arrived, I took it out of the box and, because I’m impatient, went for the “Quick Start” instruction card rather than reading...
M&P magic astro bouncer review
I’ll be honest. When I first got the Astro Cradle. I was not enthused. I really thought it was all a little too much, and I was sure my little one would not give a hoot about a cradle I could attach an iPod too, or one that vibrates, or one which has flashing lights, or different tunes…. or one that did all of that and more. But I was wrong. She loves it. Like proper loves it. In fact, she finds it hilarious. She sits in...
