Hello 32 🎂


Yesterday was my 32nd birthday and it was such a lovely day. I wanted to share my day as a little reminder for me as well as showing a normal birthday as a Mum of 2.

It started off as an early start with it being the first day back to school, so 7am the girls came in and woke me instead of my alarm. We had a cuddle and a chill before waking Liam up for coffee and pressies. 

The girls brought my presents over and helped ne open them, I got some lovely gifts and felt very lucky and spoilt. It was then time to get the girls some breakfast and enjoy some time before the school run madness. 

After dropping Lils off we headed back home for a bit as it was Olivia's day off nursery so we played for a bit and I sorted my hair and makeup. Liam then decided we needed to go to B&Q for some bits, we then popped into Sainsburys for BBQ bits.

3pm hit and it was time to get Lils from her first day of year 6! Apparently she had a brilliant day which is good. We then headed straight over to Liams Mums for the BBQ as we sadly don't have a garden. 

Once there is was time for a gin and lemonade and the girls playing with water guns as we are currently experiencing a heatwave. The BBQ was lit and the girls then decorated my birthday cake for me.

We only ended up having some burgers as Liam makes mean sized burgers that are so filling but tasty. Once we had devourered those Liam brought my birthday cake out, sadly the candles kept blowing out bur it really made us laugh. 

Soon it was time to come home and get the girls ready for bed for school and nursery the next day. Once they were both settled Liam poured me another gin and lemonade and we watched 'The Founder'. We did have drama with a wasp that wanted to drink my gin and came back in twice but all in all it was a brilliant day.

Autumn Tag

Hello, I thought that today I would take part in the Autumn tag so you can all get to know me a little better, I took part in this on my old blog many years back and a lot has changed since. Autumn has to be my favourite season with so much change and the excitement for Christmas not far ahead. 1. What signifies the start of Autumn for you? I know Autumn starts at the end of September but for me its the first of November when it starts to officially feel like Autumn, it all of the sudden feels different and colder after Halloween and especially when the clocks go back too. 2. What is your favourite Autumn scent? My favourite autumn scents are either Orange or berries, they always make the house smell so warm and toasty in wax melt form and I love them in a hand cream or even a bubble bath scent too around this time of year.. 3. What is your favourite Autumn colour? My favourite Autumn colour has to be the burnt orange for the leaves but burgundy colour for clothing, the are just very w...

Cottage pie recipe

I have recently started making my own Cottage pie with a recipe that I have tweeted to work four our fussy family. I find that a cottage pie is such an Autumn/Winter staple as it feeling like such a warm, hearty meal, one that is a proper comfort meal.  I recently started making the meal and found that I didn't have a packet mix in so decided to find a recipe to try out, the first one I found sounded good but I changed it slightly to fit our family, Lils isn't keen on fresh onion ad none of us like celery. I thought I would share our recipe with you which can easily be adapted if need be. Recipe 500g Beef Mince 1 carton of tomato passata  1 tbs tomato paste 1 beef stock cube 1 beef stock pot 1 tsp onion salt 1 tsp garlic granules 1 tsp mixed herbs 2 medium carrots sliced and part cooked Salt and pepper 3 large potatoes for mash 75g cheese Method 1. Preheat you oven to gas mark 4/180oC 2. Brown off the mince and drain off excess oil from the pan. 3. Pour in the pass...
