Food waste is not only a moral but an environmental issue too. I’m pretty conscious about producing waste and if there’s something which helps me with that, I’m up for it. Luckily, with the help of great innovations it’s getting easier lately. Foodji is a new Iphone App that allows the user to track food best before date, choose to …
Review: Eden’s Semilla Aromatherapy Essential Oils
Lucky lucky me! My friends at Eden’s Semilla sent me some wonderful new stuff to review. Knowing some of their products already, I was really excited. I’m actually a real sucker for aromatherapy oils. (Because my mum used them when I was a child, so for example the smell of orange flower oil makes me feel home.) I use them a lot …
Hotel Review: Meon Valley Marriott Hotel And Country Club
We picked Meon Valley Marriott Hotel And Country Club for five nights in August as a mini-holiday near home. As we checked the reviews on Tripadvisor it was clear that many families chose the hotel for being “children friendly“. We thought, the rooms are big, there’s golf for daddy and beauty treatments for mummy, small children can use the swimming pool, so …
Family Day Out Review Series: National Motor Museum Beaulieu
The National Motor Museum Beaulieu was a big hit for our vehicle-fan toddler. So was for daddy and mummy too. Here’s why Beaulieu is a great place for everyone. The toddler’s favourites: Monorail – train on elevated tracks! Also going through the building of the museum. Fun to watch it too, but a ride is mandatory. “WHEELS” – it’s a ride, …
Family Day Out At The Bockett’s Farm
So I’ve been hearing about this farm for ages from my mummy friends. It’s a short drive for a South Londoner, even with a toddler having a grumpy morning. One lovely July day (when it was 30 C all of a sudden) we finally drove down there and visited it. We initially only intended to spend there no more than …
Benefits Of Using Nebulizing Essential Oil Diffuser
I used to love elegant scented candles. I really like the balmy welcome when I get home or having guests and they also eliminate other smells. Like baby vomit 🙂 But then I’ve learned that they are not very good for your health. In fact, they potentially contain harmful chemicals which are then released by burning the candle and we …
Summer Matcha & Mint Lemonade
I love matcha tea, not only tasty and healthy, but very versatile too as it comes in a powdered form. You can use it in cakes, smoothies, drinks and more. So when I received Matcha & Mint from EatCleanTea I got really excited. They asked me to review the product and create a summer drink recipe with it. Easy -peasy. The affair …
Review: Aquatopia Antwerp – Doesn’t Worth The Money
A few weeks ago we visited my cousin who lives near Antwerp and we wanted to spend a couple of hours in Antwerp: visit some children-friendly place and have a nice lunch near the train station. We found both challenging. Our first idea was the zoo, but most of it was under reconstruction so we decided to visit Aquatopia which was just …
Review: Simply Washing Tabs: Pure Hypoallergenic Non-Bio And Simply Sensitive Non-Bio
I have received these products in exchange for my honest review. Simply sent me these washing tablets to review them, as I often do eco – and baby friendly product reviews. Their washing tabs fall into both category. As I already wrote about it, my son had mild eczema, now he is on the mend – but we follow some …
Barcelona Revisited (Hotel SB Diagonal Zero Review)
We travel to Barcelona every year or two because I love there, it’s one of my favourite places in Europe. I lived in Spain for a few years, it feels like home 🙂 It’s always good fun, very child-friendly and a lot warmer in March than in London. This time we wanted to be near the beach but still close …
