Oh, to dream. I meander around lots of beautiful gardens these days, with our National Trust days out, as well as enjoying my own and my mum’s. They lead me to daydream about my perfect garden. You know, the one you’d have if you won the lottery? If money and time were no barrier. So, …
For this month’s Papery Peep, I’m sharing with you my letter-writing box. I send and receive lots of lovely snailmail here. I love being a part of #PostCircle, and I’ve also found other lovely ladies that I write to via Twitter and Instagram, too. I keep every letter, note and card received… It would clearly be remiss …

Today I’m sharing our day out at Twycross Zoo… I’ve always loved zoos. They were my favourite choice of birthday outing all throughout my twenties, let alone when I was a kid. My love of Twycross Zoo began when I was at primary school, as our headmaster had affiliations with them and so we often …

Thank you so much for continuing to share and to link up. You’ll be pleased to learn that Little Man has actually slept past dawn several times this week, so I’m now getting lie ins until just after 6am, which I can totally handle! If you’re new here, Word of the Week is a nice …
Boo enjoys getting crafty and creative, so when we were offered the chance to try out Aquabeads, I knew she’d love to. We’d not heard of Aquabeads before. The idea is that you make various bead designs and creations, using the enclosed templates or your own ideas, then spray them with water and they all …

Now, I’m not one for going to the gym, though I enjoyed it for a while back in my pre-kids days. And of an evening, after they’ve gone to bed, well, that’s when you’ll find me here blogging and all that that entails, or flopping on the sofa watching TV. But that’s not to say …
