Life is better when you live it in full flavour…recipes, reviews, foodie finds, and making time for family and myself
My drinking habits have definitely been changing in recent months, consuming less alcohol than I used to in my younger years. While this has clear benefits for my health including aspects such as my sleeping, if I'm being really honest, I do miss that 'ahhh' feeling that comes with relaxing, glass of wine in hand,…

I've been sharing a lot more on my blog about food & drink products that have strong eco-credentials and are reducing pressure on the environment. My Huski Home travel cup review is one of these posts, and has to be one of my best finds of 2019. I wanted to expand on this, so I've…
Living in Birmingham has plenty of benefits, but I definitely like to venture out to our surrounding counties when I can. Not too far away is Shropshire which is a really beautiful area and home to many fantastic places to eat. I've been to Ludlow a couple of times to visit the market, the independent…

Since I've become a mum, it has definitely been harder to find time to spend with my friends (who are also busy parents, working or just generally living life as we all do!). I’m always quite tired and not much of a drinker anymore, so heading out to a pub or club is way out…

So when I heard of a business that will deliver brownies to your door, I couldn’t wait to try them out. All of the tastiness with none of the at-home baking and washing…
I am a massive snack fan, which are good for my soul but not necessarily my waistline! So finding tasty but healthy (or healthier than the usual snack suspects) is always a bonus. I've tried lots of different gourmet popcorns in my time, with mixed success. I'd seen Popcorn Shed on Ocado, so when there…
Anyone who reads my blog regularly, well firstly, thank you! But secondly you'll know I love my coffee. So a staple item for me is a good travel mug, so that I can make sure I've got my caffeine hit when I'm out and about. When I read about Huski Home and their travel cup…
How often do you (and I confess to this as well!) say things like ‘I didn’t have time to eat a healthy meal’ or ‘there’s no time for me to cook healthy meals’? It is hard when you're really pushed for time and it can be difficult to get out this mindset. Luckily, there are…
I'd been following A Mummy Too's blog and Twitter for a while when I saw that the author, Emily Leary, was releasing a recipe book. This was exciting news on its own, but when coupled with the notion that the book would offer help on getting your kids to expand their food horizons, I was…
