Mama Uniform: Becca

As Autumn sets in my thoughts are once again turning to the contents of my wardrobe. Living in the UK, the weather really does just seem to turn so quickly. It only seems like yesterday I was walking around in shorts and now I’ve been putting my winter coat on again in the evenings! As the crisp nights arrive, my thoughts also turn to ways to make life a bit more comforting and cozy! I have to be honest and admit that as I type, I also have a glass of red wine on the go and my harem pants have… View Post

Food: 5 restaurants to try in Edinburgh this Autumn with kids

Design: Book Buying Habits

Earlier this month I was tagged in a “Book Buying Habits” tag over at My Eclectic Reads. Since I haven’t written about books or reading for ages, I thought I would give this one a go. I’m still attempting to read 52 books this year but am still really quite behind – so maybe it’s time to buy some: Where do you buy your books? I generally shop on Amazon because I don’t have a lot of spare time to go the shops. I have a Kindle and prefer to buy ‘throw away’ fiction on there rather than have to get rid… View Post
