Our Welsh Wednesday!

Our Welsh Wednesday!

I was supposed to be taking the kids up to Scotland this week (half term) for a few days, but unfortunately we had to cancel the adventure. Freckled face #3 was poorly, and I didn't want to travel with a poorly kid, especially as it was just the kids and I. Wednesday morning came and [...]

Banana and Blueberry Doughnuts

Our little Freckled Face #3 is a big doughnut fan! So much so that she asked for a doughnut maker for Christmas! She was over the moon when she opened up a mini doughnut maker on Christmas morning! Haha She will eat pretty much anything if it is in doughnut form! We have some fun [...]

Fossil Biscuits!

Here is what you'll need: 6oz of butter (at room temp) 3oz of caster sugar 9oz of plain flour 1 tsp of cinnamon (optional and to taste) A big bowl [...]

Warwick Castle Adventure!

Wow wow WOW! What a weekend!! It was freckled face number 1's birthday and instead of a party he decided that he wanted to stay in The Knights Village at Warwick Castle. We had an AMAZING time!! The car journey didn't appeal to us; car journeys never do when you have kids with travel sickness, [...]
