Things My Children Say (2)

Hello! 
The past couple of weeks I have been crocheting rugs and using up all my random yarn from my stash. I realised I didn't really need the three rugs I had made so asked my bigger two if they would like on in their room. M said yes please and S well he said no, I asked him why he didn't want a rug in his room and his reply was that he doesn't like noodles!? Yeah we were clueless on that too so because he doesn't like noodles him and his brother didn't end up with a rug in their room. I have no idea what liking noodles has to do with having a rug in your room but there you go.

Things My Children Say (1)

I am going to start documenting all the amazing and random one liners that my children come out with. So have this one from F who is three years old to start us off.

"Mummy I got your golden snatch"


 Yup you read that right, I guess snitch is a hard one to say when your little. I did ask him what he had said to check I had heard him right and he said " Your snatch Mummy I got your golden snatch" and no I did not correct him I was too busy laughing much to his confusion.

Cath Kidston Disney Haul

On Friday I took a trip to Lakeside shopping centre as I had a email in the day saying that Cath Kidston had up to 50% off their Disney range. I am not too sure how long there has been a Cath Kidston store in Lakeside because I only noticed it a couple of weeks ago.
I went into the store to look at the Disney shoes and purses that were on offer. I had heard that the shoes fitted small so I wanted to be able to try them on before buying them and I could not do that if I ordered online.
I had planned on getting shoes, purse and a bowl from the Disney range. I ended up getting quite a bit more, I blame my husband who said he liked the mugs and also that we should get four bowls and not one. So this is everything we got in the sale.


I got the shoes which I have been wearing for the past couple of days and they are really comfy. I haven’t decided if I will wear them to Disneyland Paris in April. I know I will be doing a lot of walking and am not sure If they will end up hurting my feet.
Did anyone else get any good deals in the Disney sale? I would love to know what you got if you did.

I think that is it for now for this short post as I have no idea what else to write and I will probably start rambling. So bye for now.

Hex Bomb Bewitching Bath Bombs

I have always been a Lush girl staying away from any bath bomb or bubble bar that did not have the Lush logo. Last month I thought why! Lush are not the greatest company in the world although millions of Lushies (Lushie is someone obsessed with or someone that really loves Lush) would disagree with me. Anyway I decided to look for something from a smaller company and something that called to me, there is only so many pretty pink bath bombs one person can stand and I am not a pink girl. Black is my go to colour so I had a look around to see what there was.
I found Hex Bomb, Hex Bomb is the sister company of bella muerte clothing in Ireland. They have a website, facebook and instagram. Their bath bombs are not like your average bath bombs their bath bombs are more of a goth bath bomb. I ordered 3 to try them out and see what I thought. I am not sure what I did with my photos of the black bomb called 'black as your soul' (seriously cool name right?!) So here are a few photos of their red one which is my favourite. The red one is called 'bathory' 




 The bomb came in a cute little spider web cupcake case. They do an travel pack one too now which I will order next time, they are a little bit bigger and you can take them with you if you go stay somewhere.





It quickly turned my bath an amazing blood red. I then realised that I could have some fun with this bath bomb.






Ok, I had a lot of fun with this bath bomb making my bathroom look like a murder scene, I made sure I cleaned up in case my Husband came in and wondered what on earth had happened haha.



And for those wondering no it did not stain my bath, You will have to excuse the state of the bath the previous tenants decided painting the bath was a good idea as the enamel is coming off.


I absolutely loved this bath bomb and can not wait till pay day till I can buy some more. It was so much fun and smelt lovely, I am not very good with smells but I think it smelled like berries. I honestly prefer this to pretty much every Lush bath bomb I have tried.

Let me know if you would like more blog posts on my baths, I usually post all my bath photos on my instagram but could add a few posts here too if it is something people would be interested in.

Lucky Dip Club Subscription Box

My Lucky Dip subscription box came. I love getting a mystery box of goodies each month, here are a few photos of what I received this month.







Small beauty haul

So today I decided to spend our tesco club card vouchers on some beauty bits. I needed mascara and eyeliner for ages as I lost my makeup bag a while ago and have been slowly replacing bits. This is what I got.


The eyeliner I got was by Barry M and I was assuming that it would be fine because I've had one of theirs before, I had wrong! The eye liner was terrible and I could hardly use it. The mascara wasn't much better but at least was usable. I am glad that I didn't actually pay for these items and got them with vouchers. 
We tried the face mask out tonight and it said 2 applications, luckily my husband did it with me as there is no way to store the unused product once you have opened it. The product itself wasn't too bad, it was very sticky to put on but dried quickly then you were able to peel it off. My husband did say don't use it near your beard haha. He had some trouble getting it out of his beard. We have one more sachet to use which we will do but I won't be buying it again. 
One thing we got today that we both loved was the exfoliating wipes, they exfoliated well and made your skin feel lovely after. We will be buying them again. 
So that's my random little review for today and I hope you all have a great weekend.
