Why is my Mum wearing a Sanitary Pad on her Chin?

Why is my Mum wearing a Sanitary Pad on her Chin?

This Christmas I have given you some quite ridiculous things - Mr AMR talking to turkeys, me with a pineapple on my head - and now it's time for one more. Let me please now introduce a review of the Elemis Pro-Intense Lift Effect Jowl and Chin Mask where my mother...

Monthly Favourites – With My Mum!

Monthly Favourites – With My Mum!

A favourites video with a difference this month: say hello to my Mum! Some of you may know her already from her blog, My Mum Says - if you haven't read it then do have a little look, I'll pop the link underneath the video pane. My Mum is almost as obsessed with lovely...

My Mum’s Home Spa

My Mum’s Home Spa

I have just been sat absolutely hooting with laughter at my Mum's latest blog post - I especially loved the battery-powered candles part. I  love the fact that she can make me laugh so much when she's 100 miles away - it makes me think that if she lived any closer I'd...

My Mum, Let Loose.

Be afraid, be so very, very afraid. "My Mum Says", aka Christine my Mum (see here for some posts she has written for me) has started up a no-holds-barred beauty blog in which she documents her discoveries and disappointments. It's quite possible that my mother is some...

One Nil to the Seaside Staycation

One Nil to the Seaside Staycation

I'm still very much undecided as to whether holidays abroad with babies and toddlers are a good idea. There are so many considerations, so many logistical problems and non-relaxing hurdles to jump over. Trying to get through airport security with two cartons of milk...

The Mother’s Day Wishlist | AD

The Mother’s Day Wishlist | AD

Wanting to compile the Ultimate Mother's Day Wishlist, I emailed my Mum to ask her what sort of things she would really like to receive. You know, in an ideal world. No holds barred. "Think outside the box!" I said. "You can be obscure as you want!" I said. A got back...

Mr Bear’s Holiday Slideshow…

Mr Bear’s Holiday Slideshow…

I thought that some of you might like this; my Mum made a little photo slideshow for me on her blog with some "Mr Bear on holiday" snapshots. I particularly like the ones of him standing guard on top of the cupboard - very sinister - and also the photos of him chewing...

Sunday Tittle Tattle: Back to the Old School

Sunday Tittle Tattle: Back to the Old School

1) Sorry, I was a bit slow off the mark with this week's Sunday Tittle Tattle and so those who subscribe by email will be reading this on Monday morning. Also, I've decided to go Old School and return to the previous way of titling these posts; it's easier to pick...

Family Get-Togethers + Luxury Houses = Perfect Stays.

Family Get-Togethers + Luxury Houses = Perfect Stays.

Last Autumn I started thinking about holding a family get-together: me, parents, all siblings and babies and other-halves and various add-ons such as dogs and fluffy dinosaurs and pull-along ponies. It would be fun, I mused, to get everyone in the same place at the...

Sunday Tittle Tattle

Sunday Tittle Tattle

1) Advice needed: I have filmed a video of the makeup that I wore to the Brit Awards last week, but I'm not sure whether or not the eyes are too "winged". It took so long to film it and I would hate to scrap the whole thing, but I keep staring at the video and...

Sunday Tittle Tattle

Sunday Tittle Tattle

Bit thin on the ground, again, I'm afraid, as I am now properly buried in my MA work with no light at the end of the tunnel! I haven't even properly planned out my dissertation yet - I'm still finishing my coursework! Eeek. I want to find some cheeky, chirpy things to...
