What’s #foodwastefriday all about?

September 8, 2017 by SimplyBeingMum

In April 2010 I registered a blog with WordPress.com. It wasn't until October 2010 I summoned up enough courage to actually post. I'd come to the virtual world looking for a simpler, and more conscious way of life. In the virtual world? Does that make any sense?

Summer or Autumn (Fall) You Decide

September 3, 2017 by SimplyBeingMum

Have You Seen My Perfect Glasses?

Aviator Sunglasses

*This post is sponsored by Perfect Glasses but words and opinion are my own* Top Gun 2 is on the cards. The iconic movie that propelled the aviator style of sunglasses to stardom in the 1980's. I finally own a pair. A prescription pair. In the 1980's I wouldn't have needed assistance with my eyesight, but since turning (and passing) 40 - a ...

All You Need Is Love | One Love

June 5, 2017 by SimplyBeingMum

  We have had our fair share of sombre day's in the UK recently. There's a metaphoric dark cloud hanging over our land and a heaviness in the air, weighing down on our shoulders. A hint of insecurity behind adult eye's wondering what the world will be like when the next generation are at the age we are now. And what about the generation beyond ...

5 Benefits To Weekly Meal Planning

Today seems the perfect time to talk about the benefits of weekly meal planning. It's a miserable Monday here in the middle of the UK.
