Sombrero Cookie Tutorial

May 14, 2014June 17, 2021

The boys’ favourite Cinco de Mayo activity this year was without a doubt the sombrero cookies; which is great because it was also the simplest activity to provide for!

All you need to keep your little ones quiet and engaged for at least 30 minutes is…

Cookies (we bought ours)

Marshmallows (we used white)

Frosting (we used vanilla)

WINTER ACTIVITIES: HOT CHOCOLATE, HUSKIES… HIKE! HIKE! HIKE!

When I was little, the words, “winter outdoor activities” meant two things to me – building snowmen and sledging. Growing up in the Midlands, Winter’s greatest gift to me as a little girl was what was pretty much a guaranteed snowfall around the time of our school Christmas holidays. It was always the good stuff…

OUR FIRST BACKYARD BBQ OF 2017

I had no idea that we were going to be enjoying our first Backyard BBQ of the year this weekend – but when I woke up on Saturday, Gav casually mentioned that he’d already invited his parents over for just that – that afternoon.
