The JML NutriBlitzer Review – it’s not just for smoothies! (also – Spicy Tomato Soup Recipe)

I was really keen to try out the Nutri Blitzer from JML – pretty much everyone knows this house is on a bit of a health kick these days. But alongside the husband kicking his T2 Diabetes I have a house filled with teen boys. Who seem to sprout another inch every time my back is turned (honestly – it’s genuinely alarming meeting a shuffling man-shape looming out of the dark on the landing at 2...

Spotted! Animal Crossing amiibo Cards Collectors Album – Series 1

Love this idea! Since the Happy Home Designer game appeared in the house, we’re seeing a resurgence of Animal Crossing games, constantly coming across a small-ish person or two, head bent seriously over a DS.

Wellness CORE dog food – grain-free pet food

NB – the following Wellness CORE dog food review has been really very willingly reviewed by #BlueTheRottweiler. We were gifted the bag of food – all opinions Blue’s own, obviously, because dog’s can’t lie. Unless you have a dog, you don’t think pet food differs much.

The Bilibo Review – and why every home needs one

Well. The Bilibo. ‘Tis an odd thing. A shiny, plastic saucer bucket. Kind of. Thing. Whats it for? Well – pretty much whatever your child needs, actually. So far I have noticed that it can be; A carry vessel for cars and soldiers and dinosaurs, A super-fast ramp for cars, A spinny seat on shiny floors, A TV-watching seat, A tortoise shell, A step to reach high shelves, A helmet to make you an alien, A...
