Five Fabulously Frugal Things I’ve done this week {16th September 2016}….
1) I'm so excited about this one - after living in our house for six years we are finally getting the bathroom flooring replaced! It's needed doing for such a long time but I thought it would be much more expensive than it actually can be done for so we kept putting it off. You might have read my September goals post where I decided that one of my goals was to at least look into all of the things I wanted doing and this was the first thing. We popped along to a local store with the measurements of our three bathrooms (sounds way posher than it is - one's a teeny space downstairs and ones an … [Read more...]

Getting married at Gretna Green – how to organise a wedding on a budget….
I'm pretty sure I've shared my wedding on a budget story with you before but I've just been going through my boxes of family photos and it made me feel all warm and fluffy so I thought I'd share with you today how we planned our wedding on a super tight budget and hopefully you'll agree that you don't need to spend a fortune on a wedding to have a long lasting and happy marriage.We didn't really plan on getting married when we did to be honest although we were engaged and we did have plans for a slightly larger wedding somewhere down the line. At the time, we'd been together almost five … [Read more...]
5 of my favourite warming soup recipes….
I think I must have made soup at least twice a week every single week since I got my soup maker last Christmas and I've tried out so many soup recipes that I can't even remember most of them. Soup's cheap and easy to make, it's healthy and it's freezes really well, it often tastes even better when you reheat it and it's brilliant to pop in a flask for lunches at work - what's not to love about soup!So to start the week off, I've decided to have a little soup celebration and share six of my absolute favourite soup recipes with you starting with my absolute most favourite soup - simple leek … [Read more...]
