Howdy Peeps! It's almost Christmas!!! 😁🎄☃️🦌🎅🏻🎁 That means a lot of people will start an advent calendar on Sunday. About 5 or 6 years ago my daughter and I saw an idea for one in a magazine/on TV/Pinterest and thought it would be fun to make our own...we decorated tin cans and I filled them [...]
Howdy Friday Peeps! Have you got a 3-day-weekend ahead? We're excited here! Anyhoo, I realise I haven't shared a recipe in aaaaaaaaaaaaages (sorry about that) but I have a good reason: I am no longer the only cook in the house! My daughter has been developing her skills in her catering lessons at school and [...]
Helloooo Monday Peeps! As it's a mere 10 weeks until Christmas 😊🎉🎄🎅 I thought I'd share these cheap and simple crafts with you... The tree on the left is made entirely of buttons hot-glued to some thin card. You arrange green buttons or beads in a triangle and add a yellow one to the top [...]
Hi-de-hi Peeps! On this cold, grey day I thought it was a good time to share some warm and hearty recipes... please feel free to add your own below too! 🙂 Cold weather instantly makes me crave Root Veg Stew...preferably with a big hunk of bread to dip in. 😉 Stew a bit heavy for you? [...]

I was watching Youtube videos on the subject and they recommended these 'cook once' meals...so you do all the prep one day and eat for several...kind of [...]
Morning Peeps! School Holidays and visitors and rain...seems like a normal week 😉 Seriously though, I have 2 or 3 different guests coming this week, or different ages and tastes. So I've been thinking about what to feed them. I always like to do a 'self-service' table when we have visitors so people can choose [...]
Morning Peeps! Three weeks today is Christmas Eve! So if you have people you want to make gifts for, or kids to entertain, you can have a go at making these little chums! For the Snowmen I used the YouTube guide I blogged about in Oh, The Weather Outside Is Frightful… but I used the same method [...]
Morning Peeps! I want to chat with you about homemade and DIY stuff. I LOVE IT! My current addiction is Mason jar Christmas gifts on Pinterest! Homemade food and gifts and even furnishings all seem like a great idea to save money, but be warned: Some are more expensive than buying ready-made ones! Most of [...]
