Prices seem to be rising daily at the moment so I thought I'd write a quick post about the ways that I save money at the supermarket because, let's face it, every penny counts right now so if I can help you save a little bit when you're doing your weekly shop then we're winning!1) Airtime Rewards This is one I've mentioned loads over the last couple of months since I first discovered this one but Airtime Rewards is amazing! It's a completely free app that you download onto your phone, you connect your bank cards which is as simple as just scanning your card or typing in the details – no … [Read more...]
Why we’ve gone back to basics….
I've started this post about twenty times already this morning and this time, no matter what words end up on my screen, I'm not going to delete them. Maybe. 😂So I know that I've been the worst blogger in the world these last couple of years and I understand that there'll be very few people still here reading my posts but for those of you who are still here, I just wanted to update you very quickly on where I'm at and what my plans are going forward.

10 ways to reuse glass jam jars…
In the spirit of being sustainable and reusing as much as you possibly can around the house, I thought you might like to see a few ideas on how to reuse glass jam jars.I actually started this post (if taking two photographs counts as starting a post) a good few months ago now and then forgot all about the idea until this week when I saw a post on Facebook about how the owners of the company who make my favourite brand of jam, Bonne Maman, actually hid a family in Paris during World War 2 as part of the Nazi resistance effort. The story was really heartwarming but potentially (as with … [Read more...]
Have a Reset Day and reset your life…
A reset day is a day that you take to basically get your life in order, sort out those niggly problems that have been annoying you and tackle any jobs that you've been putting off. In theory, at the end of a reset day, you should feel a lot more in control of life in general and I was in need of a bit of that myself last weekend so Sunday was dedicated to my own reset day.I've been feeling a bit meh lately, nothing too serious but since I hurt my knee a while ago I haven't been able to do any real exercise which I know has impacted me which seems mad when I think about it as I've never … [Read more...]
Homemade Spicy Arrabbiata Sauce Recipe….
This homemade Spicy Arrabbiata Sauce recipe had really upped my meal planning game this year! If you've seen any of my meal plans on Meal Planning Made Easy for the last couple of weeks then you'll probably have seen that a new regular on our meal plan is Prawn Pasta with a spicy arrabbiata sauce. It's a bit of a twist on my homemade tomato sauce recipe which I've been making in bulk for years now as it's so versatile and brilliant to batch cook and freeze so you always have some in the freezer. Basically, spicy arrabbiata sauce is just tomato sauce with a kick! It … [Read more...]
Here’s the one BIG thing you should teach your children about money…
There are so many lessons that we need to teach our children about money but today, I'm going to tell you what I think is the single most important lesson that you need to teach them. It's the foundation for so many other money lessons that you'll teach them throughout the years.It's nothing complicated and it's nothing that we, as grown-ups absolutely understand that this is the key to being financially savvy even when we can't actually stick to it ourselves. 😂I genuinely believe that teaching children about money can, and should, start from an early age and over the … [Read more...]
