Comfort Food: Winterberry and Chocolate Oats
Winter is coming… Or rather, it’s here already. Thankfully the weather still reminiscent of autumn, has so far been kind. But it won’t be long before the cold and frosty mornings arrive. Level 5 restrictions or not, keeping warm will be top priority. And what better way to warm the cockles of your heart than…

Happy Halloween! Let’s celebrate gothic style.
October. My favourite month. Leaves are falling from the trees. Autumn colours joyfully dance in the amber sunshine. The temperature drops into a nice cosy wrap-around coat, and hot chocolate is a thing again. But, the pinnicle of my birthday month, the climax, the star of the show belongs to Halloween.

7 Things I’d Rather do than Homeschool again.

My 10 year old bottle of Champagne
Hubster and I have just celebrated our 10 year Anniversary (Thank you, thank you…) Just to be clear that’s 10 years of marriage, not anything fun… And we did celebrate. Had a lovely night away at a beautiful spa hotel without the kids. Treatments, thermal spa, dinner, drinks, the works. It all went far too…

I’ve already sent my hubby a text informing him that I will be going for a run when he returns home from work. Now I have to go! But please don’t be mistaken, I actually love running – I just haven’t been out in a while. I will prepare an energy boosting smoothie to drink…
