Happy Multiple Birth Week!

Oops.. I am such a bad twin mamma, I had no idea it was Multiple Birth’s week until I read about it at My Little Drummer Boys! So I am interrupting the party schedule to make a special side-party just to celebrate those of us who are parents of multiples, who are twins or High […]

My First Party!

So it is my first time at the Ultimate Blog Party, and in honour of that event I thought I should share another first party of mine…

Yep, that is me, at my first birthday! Look how cute I was. My Mum was kinda spunky back then too don’t you think? You know I think she […]

Kid’s Party Ideas - Keeping it Simple!

Continuing with the party theme in honour of ‘The Ultimate Blog Party ‘08′ I thought I’d crank up the old brain and see if I could dig out some of the info that has been long stored away, from my life before kids.
Before the girls were born I was a preschool teacher, and on […]

Meet Your Party Host.

We kicked off The Ultimate Blog Party ‘08 last night here at Picklebums with a raging dance party and a little bit of gratefulness. Now that Five Minutes for Mum is back up with the lure of a Mr Linky with 337 links (now that just makes my Grateful Friday Linky look so sad!) […]

Smile!

“Love is like a pair of socks: you gotta have two and they’ve gotta match.”

I’ve been invited to a party!

I’ve been invited to a party! Well ok I invited myself, but I am pretty sure that doesn’t count as gate crashing for this party. It’s the Ultimate Blog Party hosted by Five Minutes for Mum and it’s coming to a blog near you (in your case, this blog, but probably quite a few others […]

Cheap and Easy - Beef and Veggie Triangles.

‘Cheap and Easy.’
That is pretty much my goal for most meals we eat around here. We are on a rather tight food budget and I am not a whizz in the kitchen, so if I can combine those two things I am happy. Even happier if it’s tasty.
Beef and Veggie Triangles
This recipe is adapted […]

Blog-keeping

Just a few bloggy bits and pieces I wanted to post about while I remembered…

Firstly you may have noticed the BlogHer ad that has pooped up on my far right side bar. This is something new I am trailing. I am not blogging to make money so I don’t plan to fill this blog with […]
