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...
Fisher Price Lion Booster Seat Review
The Fisher Price lion booster seat has been seriously road tested in my house by my 2 year old, who takes meal times very seriously. Like all children’s equipment the seat came with a full instruction manual, in at least 12 languages. But frankly I managed to ‘assemble’ the lion head back to the seat base and then add the tray without the need to refer to the manual (pat on the back for me!), and the straps were...
Cosatto 3sixti Highchair – What WE Say…
The Cosatto 3sixti looks great. The seat is large with two recline positions, a padded cover, and an easily removable two-part tray (the top part can go in the dishwasher). The seat cover is easily removable, which is of course important since you need to clean underneath it. The chair’s easy to clean too, because it’s all moulded and rounded, so there aren’t so many nooks and crannies for all the junk to get wedged...
