See what I did there with the title. ;-) I wanted to make some fancy Easter cupcakes to share with you today - the plan was that would wow you with my cooking prowess but the reality was very different. The cakes didn't look anything like they were meant to so I thought I'd share a few easy Easter cupcake ideas with you instead.Now, these ideas aren't necessarily Pinterest worthy but they taste amazing, they're easy to make and they have a definite Easter theme so let's just go with it...First up, the recipe I use for my cupcakes (they're all chocolate today) is a simple one that I … [Read more...]

#OldSchool Meal Planning Monday – including an update from me….

Miss Frugal asked me if we could go charity shop shopping a couple of Sundays ago as she wanted some new (to her) clothes but didn't want to spend too much as she's saving for a holiday this year. She asked if we could go to a small town near us which is know for being a bit posh as she … [Read more...]
