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...
Spotted! – Most gorgeous of t-shirts on Etsy. MOO!
So there I am, browsing Etsy, like you do (Oh yes you do) – when all of a sudden my attention is nabbed by the MOST lovely t shirt. Just how gorgeous can one pig print get? Best of all, being Etsy and therefore all hand printed (my fave bit – stamped with locally-grown potatoes) it comes in sizes from itty bitty 6mths to galumphing great 6 years! Now tell me you haven’t just fallen in love with this cleverest little...
Spotted! For the Dads – The Real Shaving Co.
I was doing the weekly on-line shopping when Dearest Husband piped up, “I need some face cream please.” – “Eh?!” I intelligently responded. Turns out that for months, the Winter months especially, he’s been dipping, daily, into my very special, too good for him, facial moisturiser to keep his dry skin at bay. No wonder I’ve been getting through the stuff so quickly!! Argh! So, a few browsing...
Hello, Good morning and welcome… to 2010.
So – here we are at that back-to-normal mid-January Flump. Work is muttering from the sidelines as I sit here (meandering around blogosphere) valiantly ignoring its rumbling discontent. Instead, I’m thinking about all that ‘stuff’ we had for Christmas. and what was really, truly, the best bits. For No.1 son we did good this year. the most successful of his loot was the lego – his ultimate passion –...
Bestest Christmas Gift Ideas No.25 – Gorgeous Bobux slippers
I have to admit I’m a bit of a late convert to slippers. Never wore them myself, and never really got why a thick pair of socks wasn’t better for the childrens feet than restrictive slippers. Then I started to wear them myself (get thee away from me, cold feet), and was persuaded that they were quite nice – but still felt a pair of socks was better on small growing bones. Then the lovely Caroline at Ollipops sent me...
