Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

I got this from Amazon as I was looking for something easy to read about being a mum, and found it really truthful, perceptive and, most importantly, very funny about the process of becoming a mother after being a person in your own right. She voices the doubts, fears and dilemmas that have faced us all in this process with honesty and humour. It's an affirming read that reminds us that although we may not be able to 'have it all', we can get some of it right, sometimes, and that feels great. A fantastic read for any mum.
