We’re a full month into our subscription and we literally have no complaints about the food, delivery and customer service we’ve received so far. When HelloFresh offered me my first box in return for a review, I had no idea that I’d be so impressed with the quality of the…
How’s your weekend going so far? As you can imagine, with only 4 weeks until the baby arrives, things here are pretty chaotic. My baby box arrived last week (here) and we’re spending today decorating it and getting Penny excited for the new arrival. This week I made a Wet…
Since my initial last HelloFresh post just over two weeks ago, I’ve sampled another two boxes and I thought I’d keep you updated with my progress. HelloFresh was kind enough to send me my first box free of charge in exchange for an honest review. Ross and I were so…
If you follow me on Instagram, you’ve probably noticed a mouth-watering array of dishes popping up on my feed recently. This usually only happens when we’ve actually managed to find a babysitter and have escaped to a fancy, grown-up restaurant (McDonald’s not included) for date night. This sadly only happens once…
Throughout my second pregnancy, I have been on a quest to find natural alternatives to help relieve my two most frustrating symptoms: stretchmarks and tiredness. When Indigo Herbs* got in touch to ask me if I’d like to try their Organic Matcha Tea Powder AND Organic Coconut Oil I jumped at the chance. Could…
On Friday, we took a trip to Dundee and found ourselves at the Butterfly Cafe (28-32 Commercial Street). Butterfly Cafe prides itself on being a colourful, fun and interactive cafe that allows children and babies to eat, learn and play in a safe and happy environment. Not only is the…
I don’t know about you, but shopping for dads, grandads, boyfriends, brothers… literally, any male in my family always proves to be a difficult challenge. You’re either met with the socks vs. smellies debacle or, when you outright ask them, you’re greeted with the dreaded “You don’t need to get me anything”…
When the lovely people at Willie’s Cacao, a bean to bar chocolate manufacturer, asked if I’d like to try out their Single Estate Discovery Pack full of artisan chocolate AND host a Twitter giveaway to give you the chance of winning one too, I, of course, couldn’t reply to that email quickly enough!…
The schools are finally back and Degustabox is full of lunchbox ideas that the kids will love. The Summer edition was full of huge brands including Rowntrees, Weetabix and, every mum’s favourite, Blossom Hill, however, as I have such a sweet tooth I think this month’s box is even better.…
Last weekend I was very kindly given tickets to the Edinburgh Foodie Festival from drinks company Sparkling Ice. I have to admit, I’d never heard of this brand before but since attending the festival I’ve been seeing their ads pop up all over Edinburgh, so maybe I’m just a little…
Why is it when I finally decide to plan a BBQ the heavens immediately open? Fingers crossed for sunny skies this weekend as this month’s Degustabox* was packed with treats including sparkling cloudy cider from Rosie’s Pig, buffalo wing spice mix from Schwartz and two huge bags of Haribo in…
Yes, you read that correctly. There is now a monthly subscription service that delivers cocktails and scrumptious snacks straight to your door. Founded in 2014, Tipple Box is a Scottish-based company with humble beginnings that is now the UK’s No. 1 cocktail club. Each month a panel of experts source premium spirits and exclusive…
I am so far way from achieving domestic goddess status in the kitchen that it’s laughable. When Gousto got in touch and asked if I’d like to try out one of their recipe kits I jumped at the chance. When it comes to preparing meals I need all the help I can…
This month’s Degustabox theme is my favourite one yet. Although it’s not quite picnic weather yet in poor auld Scotland (when is it ever?) this little box of happiness is sure to brighten up your day, despite the drizzle. April’s box included some weird and wonderful flavour combinations such as quinoa, smoked…
It’s Degustabox* time! Don’t forget to check out my discount code at the end of today’s unboxing, which gives first-time subscribers the chance to nab their first box for only £5.99 (£12.99 each additional month with free shipping). Each payment is collected on the 11th of each month, however, there is no commitment,…
