Five Favourites

I wish I knew how to link to something, I am such a newbie blogger!

Linking up with Moxie Wife for 5 Favourites!

1. Evie's new big bow school hair band 😊

I don't know how much longer she'll tolerate big bows so I am making the most of it! I see these bows a lot on kids in the South of the US and they seem to be gettingore popular here in the UK. I can't bear the fake hair accessories that Evie always wants! Ugh! 

2. My breadmaker! 

I got an Andrew James Premium breadmaker for my birthday from my

Mum and my sister. I love it!

I feel like such an earth mother with my family sitting round eating fresh baked bread and jam (even if all I did was tip in bread mix and water and flick a switch!) I could even make the jam, that's one of the functions! (Which I am yet to try out, bet I never do!) And the smell... Wow, so may make bread just to sniff it!

3. Crimson Fields on BBC1. 

The perfect mix of 20th c. history, wartime drama and pretty things/people to look at. In the absence of Downton and Call the Midwife this will do nicely.

4. Bank Holidays! May Day approaches! A whole 3 day weekend with my girlies :-) 

Marc is doing the Isle of Wight Randonee on Sunday (a cycling event) 

So I am planning to do something lovely with my little girls. Maybe something really simple like a beach picnic, weather allowing. It's also our 11th wedding anniversary!

5. My mums lemon meringue pie: 

No one else's recipe even comes close.
