Bloody internet trolls and do-gooders drive me MENTAL! Continue reading

Three reasons I love my husband more as a dad
Since my husband became a dad, my definition of ‘hot’ has shifted – enormously. Forget washboard abs, a deep husky voice and bulging biceps – my husband is smoking hot when he is being a great dad. Why? Well, I think these things are pretty darn attractive. 1. Silliness A guy who is secure and […]

Sugar Sugar Everywhere …
SUGAR SUGAR EVERYWHERE … Sugar, sugar, everywhere; but nobody’s allowed to eat it. What’s up with that? Why aren’t we allowed to say “I give my kid this every now and then” without being informed by people passionate about sugar consumption. Or maybe it’s just me because I have a large audience.
