I’m not sure where to start or even how to introduce myself, not really knowing how much or little you want to know.

I did have a previous life prior to having two girls who are (just) four and (almost) six. If you are a mother, you’ll know what I mean when people just know you as “that’s so-and-so’s Mum”. It comes as no surprise that you can chat with the mothers of your kids’ friends, for months sometimes, without actually knowing what they used to do.

My intention for this site is a place where I can jot down my findings; a new kitchen gadget, a recipe that kids will eat, packed lunch ideas etc. If you want restaurant reviews then I’m afraid you’ve ended up in the wrong place, anyone with small peoples will know:

• Funds are limited so eating out is not option,
• Kids are not generally civilised enough to go to a proper restaurant (there are exceptions to every rule, of course),
• Unless your idea of a good night out is chasing kids inbetween mouthfuls whilst your salad goes limp.

Pop in again soon.
