Since going gluten free I had to give up a lot of stuff. The dream of a gluten free bread that can be eaten untoasted, for instance. I’m lucky that I was diagnosed in 2017 instead 5 years ago though because there is a whole damn world out there of tasty GF treats just waiting […]

Date Night Review: Doctor Strange
It comes as no secret that we are a bit of a geeky family, but we take it to new heights when it comes to anything Marvel Comics. I’m fairly certain my son’s act of teenage rebellion will probably be dressing up as Superman for Comic Con. Despite this obsession, neither myself or my husband […]
Mums Night Out: Bad Moms
Oh man have I been looking forward to this movie. From the first trailer, I was hooked by the premise, and add in Kristen Bell (who is totally my spirit animal) and I could not freakin wait. My mother’s group and I organised a rare night out to hang out with the Bad Moms. […]
Seanan Maguire – Every Heart A Doorway
I’ve always had a fascination with portals to magical worlds. There’s a proliferation of children’s stories with children getting whisked away to fairy tale locales – Narnia, The Far-away Tree, Wonderland, Oz, Never-Never Land. In Every Heart A Doorway, Seanan Maguire asks the question – what happens to the children who come back? Eleanor West’s Home for […]

PopSugar Reading Challenge: A Book And Its Prequel
Note: I received this book free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review If there’s one thing I love more than an apocalyptic superflu dystopia, it’s anything Arthurian. The King Arthur legends were something I read and re-read as a child and even as an adult, I’ll read or watch anything that even […]
PopSugar Reading Challenge: A National Book Award Winner
From one dystopia to another. Look I’ll be honest, I am cheating a little here – Station Eleven was only a finalist for the National Book Awards. I struggled to find anything that looked interesting to me on the list of winners. They are all pretty heavy literary type tomes and for once I decided […]
