Muffins, muffins, muffins!

It works perfectly every time without fail* and is really versatile, we usually add 200g of whatever fruit/nuts or chocolate we have hanging around or in the freezer, and we have made some AMAZING combinations – Raspberry and white chocolate is just delicious! Banana and white chocolate is another […]

Save money with a refillable oil spray bottle

I’ve always loved using Frylight for cooking, it’s quick and simple to use and you save so many calories! Then last year we decided to try and cut down on the number of single-use plastics in our home. Frylight had to go, and we decided to try and find a more eco-friendly AND cheaper alternative. […]

Homemade halloween garland

Garlands are one of my favourite home decorations. I love to change with the seasons and prefer a minimalist Scandinavian approach to decoration. These circle garlands keep things strikingly simple, yet fully festive. The gorgeous orange, gold and black colours are perfect for halloween, and they could easily be left up afterwards too. Check out the easy instructions below. To […]

Our weekly meal plan

What if you thought you were spending twice as much as you thought you spent on food? I estimated how much we spend monthly on food, and I was shocked to find we were spending close to double my estimate! Food can be so expensive, and for most families, the food shop is the second […]

Halloween burger monsters

Our kids absolutely loved these halloween monster burgers. It’s amazing how making food fun also makes them want to eat it too! These are homemade beefburgers too and they were delicious! We simply cooked the burgers as usual, and cut spooky shapes into the cheese slices before we assembled the burgers. Halloween Burger Monsters We also […]

The best chocolate chip cookie recipe

We all love homebaked cookies in our house, and this is one of our favourite recipes! It’s one we have adapted from this ‘millies cookies’ recipe, as we were looking for a more budget-friendly & slightly healthier version. Our version contains less brown sugar but still just enough to keep the delicious flavour that makes […]
