Comping Success

I've been really lucky over the last month or so and managed to win lots of lovely things. It really gives you the motivation to keep entering because, after all, you have to be in it to win it!


Here's Marianna with a win worth around £40 from madeformums.com that arrived this morning - Tomy's Push and Crawl Turtle, Ready Steady Musical Giraffe, and Tap 'n' Toddle Elephant. I've also won a Nuby Comfort Teether Kit through their Facebook page, and a copy of Frank! by Connah Brecon.


A didn't get left out of the prize presents, either. I won the full set of Star Wars DVDs from the Nicolites Electronic Cigarettes Facebook page on May 4th - the photo above shows A and Marianna entranced. Then there was a pack of pink icing from the Renshaw Baking Facebook page, and a pile of books from Goodreads along with a £50 shopping voucher from theprizefinder.com.


Finally there were a few treats for myself. On Instagram I won a necklace from Moon Tide Jewellery. I had a choice of three different stones and went for the purple quartz; it's so pretty. Then I had an email from Lucas Jack, the jewellery brand, to say I'd won an Athena bangle. It's made of resin with gold plating, and retails for £135!

British Food

A/N: On a previous blog wrote a whole series of posts on British life, explained for American fiction writers. This week I'm reposting the entry explaining British cuisine... Britain is world renowned for its stodgy, uninspiring cuisine. (Which should explain the deep suspicion Britons have of most foreign cuisine, unless it's been suitably adapted for the British palette.) BBC sitcom Goodness Gracious Me explains it best via the 'going for an English' sketch - a play on the popular British past time of 'going for an Indian (i.e. curry)'. " What's the blandest thing on the menu? " asks one character, later encouraging another, " Just have something a little bland, huh? Waiter, what have you got that is not totally tasteless? " Because, the truth is that traditional British fare is far from a taste sensation for those who haven't been raised on the stuff. Still, read on, and you can judge for yourself... Breakfast  The be

Simply Cook Review

I kept seeing ads and deals for Simply Cook everywhere, so as there was a special offer on at OhMyDosh! Rewards (£3 for the box and £3.50 cashback) I figured I had nothing to lose by giving it a try. What Is It? Recipe kits packed into boxes which fit through your letterbox. The usual price is £9.99 for a kit of 4, with each one serving 2-4 people depending on your serving sizes. All you need to do is buy the fresh ingredients required and follow the instructions. Here is Simply Cook's own helpful diagram: Does It Work? For me, as the person just eating it, it was awesome. Everything tasted great - the mushroom penne in particular was so good I went back for seconds - and I liked that the sauces weren't as rich as Anthony would usually make them. For Anthony, who cooked them, they weren't as impressive. He complained that the food was bland and that it was actually quite a lot of faff, as Lidl didn't stock everything we needed which meant another trip ou
