Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that week just to show you that the small things you do all add up to a great frugal lifestyle where you can learn to live a fabulously frugal life. Hey! 👐Before I start, I did share a post last month about the reasons why I've been a bit MIA lately if you want to pop over and have a read. It hopefully explained a lot about what's been going on and definitely explains why I've gone right back to basics when it comes to budgeting and money-saving. I shared that post and then felt super motivated about … [Read more...]
Are you financially resilient? This is what I do to help me to prepare for a financial crisis….
The world is going mad at the moment with the ever-rising cost of living so let's have a chat today about financial resilience - specifically about what I do to ensure that I'm as financially resilient as I can be and to hopefully give you some ideas on how you can be too! (I wrote this post last year but it seems more appropriate than ever so I thought I'd reshare it with you today) More so than at any other time I can remember, it's so important right now to be financially resilient. I genuinely feel like we're all about to go through some pretty hard times and being as prepared … [Read more...]
Surviving the Summer Holidays as a Working Parent….
Do you ever get working parents guilt during the school holidays? Today's post is all about how you can survive the Summer Holidays as a working parent!I first published this post about three years ago but after seeing a couple of posts on Social Media this week about the Mum guilt some people are feeling I thought I'd share it again.

How to track your monthly expenses….
Today I'm going to give you some ideas on how to track your monthly expenses which is something we all should (but often don't) do in one way or another.I've been blogging for a long time now (I'm a blogging pensioner pretty much) and I must have said how important it is to track your monthly expenses at least once a month because how can you know where you need to cut back and where you can afford to spend a little more if you don't know where you're at right now! It's also the only foolproof way to know exactly where your money is going every month so when you get to the end of … [Read more...]
Leftover Mash Cheesy Potato Pancakes….
These cheesy Potato Pancakes are an amazing way to use up leftover mashed potatoes!I've tried making something similar to this in the past to use up leftover gammon and mash but as amazing as they tasted, they definitely didn't look as tasty as they could have done. And then I saw a recipe for something similar which used flour to thicken the mix before cooking so I had a try making them with the added flour and they held their shape so much better when they were cooking. I also used more oil this time which isn't my favourite way to cook but it definitely helped them … [Read more...]
