These leftover gammon and cheesy mash fritters are AMAZING - not only do they use up leftovers and transform them into a whole new meal, but they're also easy to make and taste delicious!I made some rainbow vegetable fritters a year or so ago and ever since then, I've been planning to see if I could make something similar with the leftover mash and gammon that we seem to have on a regular basis. Then Jen popped round to collect Maxi (who was playing basketball with Master Frugal for a good three hours solid) and mentioned that she's just made some cod and pea fritters … [Read more...]
Five of my Favourite Super Cute Unicorn Crafts….
Today's post is a bit of a round up of some of my favourite Unicorn crafts!I *may* have a thing about unicorns. I also may have a thing (that I only noticed when I was putting this post together) where I have to include the words 'Super Cute' in the title of pretty much every post about unicorns.To be honest, it's not really unicorns that I have a thing about, it's more the fact that you can go a bit mad with the pretty colours when you're making unicorn crafts and DIYs. I have a plan for a few more, including a unicorn sugar scrub and a unicorn smoothie but … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things we did this week {26 July 2019}….
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.Before I start though, as always feel that I should say that being frugal to me is about getting the best value for our money - it's not about doing without for us or about not having nice things. We all have different financial situations and we're all frugal for different reasons. ;-)1) You should know this by now but my favourite way to start a post is with a bunch of … [Read more...]
Homemade Smoothie Ice Lollies…
Today, I'm going to share some homemade smoothie ice lollies that I had no part in making at all. This is all on Master Frugal who made more smoothie than he meant to and decided to make some ice lollies with the leftovers rather than waste it.For most of the year, my smoothie maker is kept in the cupboard and usually used once or twice a week but during the Summer it lives on the counter because the kids will have a smoothie almost every day at some point. It used to cost a fortune but I think we've mastered it now with a drawer in the freezer entirely dedicated to … [Read more...]
An ‘Electronics Prison’ My Secret to an attitude free summer of good behaviour….
This month's 'Blast from the Past' post is one that I was reminded of this week when I had to threaten Master Frugal with confiscating his Xbox controller if he didn't get his room tidied. I remembered the electronics 'prison' that we made and used for a good few Summers and I thought with the long Summer holidays ahead of us that it was a good time to share again!My children are pretty well behaved most of the time and I rarely have cause to tell them off for anything more serious than a bit of attitude or tidying up after themselves.I know I'm lucky in that respect but … [Read more...]
July in my garden….
It's been a while since I shared a garden update...So, there's good news and there's bad news!First up, the bad news... The Christmas tree seems to be dying a slow death in the corner of the garden despite all of our efforts to keep it alive - we've moved it, we've repotted it and given it everything it could possibly want or need and it's still not looking good for it! Secondly, the blueberry bush has disappeared. It was looking a bit feeble and literally just looked like a twig in a pot the last time I remember seeing it. Then last week, I noticed that … [Read more...]
