{cooking} pizza. Honest. I’m not blogging at all, you can’t see me, la la… {enjoying} BEDN which has completely revitalised both my blogging and my blog reading. I’ve missed both, so this is a real bonus. I only expected to kickstart the writing, not the enjoyment if that makes any sense. {listening} to a wider…

(Re)introducing me!
Because I don’t have enough to do at the moment, I’ve decided to take part in #BEDN run by Elizabeth Dhokia here. It was Mummy Barrow‘s fault. (A fair few things I’ve got up to recently, bikinis in the garden and so on have been inspired by T.) She may have mentioned on instagram that…

Chillistick Halloween Fog Pack review
We’ve not been massive fans of Halloween in the past, but when I w approached to review the Chillistick Halloween Fog Pack I really couldn’t resist the chance to try out the new phone and its camera on some spooky effects. The Halloween Fog Pack comes with everything you need for some awesome foggy fun.…

{wishing} I was more disciplined about these posts. Determined not to beat myself up – but I might go back and fill in a few holes in the archives for future me. {reading} all the books. At once. Seriously, I’ve got about 4 on the go, I don’t know what I’m playing at. Right now…

On not going back to school. Staying at not school?
We went out and about today, and bought stationery for the new not-school year that’s fast approaching. None of this terminology makes much sense. As I’ve said, we’ve drifted into an unschooling lifestyle where there’s really not a lot of division in the day between overtly educational activities and games and playing and just life…

{Pondering} on what possesses people to do unpleasant aggressive things to complete strangers. Bit of an incident at work – nobody hurt, but a bit shaken up by it. Not fun. {Enjoying} the slightly cooler weather. Although apart from driving and sleeping I really enjoyed the sunshine. I like being warm, what can I say?…

{Watching} Guardians of the galaxy vol 2. Loved it. Groooooot! {Enjoying} beachfest 2, featuring Motherfvnker. (Not enjoying the walk there and back with screaming 6 year old. We never let him do anything, you know, never.) {Eating} custard donuts and home made milkshake. (I mentioned the screaming 6 year old, yes? I earned that donut.…

Why we home educate in the holidays
I tweeted the other day about how Tigerboy was enjoying a trial on Doodlemaths and someone replied to ask if that meant we didn’t have holidays. And the honest answer is, we don’t, really. Over the years, we’ve drifted from a more structured home education approach with some very obvious curriculum related box ticking, to…

Swagbucks is a rewards site where you earn points (called SB) for things you’re probably doing online already, like searching the web, watching videos, shopping, discovering deals, and taking surveys.

This post contains affiliate links. {watching} Say Anything (Amazon) with Big. It’s a John Cusack film I somehow haven’t seen, so we obviously had to rectify that. (We’re reinstating #FamilyFilmNight but next week – we were running too late tonight after watching the football 😉 ) We loved it in case you’re wondering. And I’m…
