I’ve not blogged much in 2018 and the year has raced by. As we got a new addition to our family today, I thought it was high time for an update. Grab a cuppa and catch-up here.

Back from a brilliant seven days with our friends in Wiltshire and Wales on our Easter holidays and now counting down seven days until the London Marathon. We’ve had so much fun with the kids this week getting away from it all.

My baking’s gone back to basics and I’m enjoying it more than ever. On this week’s blog I’m sharing a few backing hacks as well as plenty more DIY advice.

I’ve been working on my own house recently, which has given me the opportunity to spend much more time with the kids. This week our youngest was a bit poorly so it’s been a quiet week spent mostly on a sofa under a sleeping toddler – not all bad!
