Have you thought about creating an eBook? Read on to find out how eBooks are not the next big thing, they are TODAY’s big thing, and getting bigger!
In 2010, 7% of British adults got a dedicated eReader for Christmas, and it looks like it will be an even bigger figure this year.

Add in the number of people …

that names their laptops?
I figure if you can name a car then you can definitely name a laptop. I’ve just bought a new laptop for work. I used to get excited about buying trainers but a new laptop definitely gives me the same buzz nowadays. The newest addition to my family, ahem..is Josh. Josh is a Dell XPS 15 with 4GB of memory, 2GB graphic card and an i5 processor. He’s young, sleek and very very fast.

Other members of the family …

1. Online business growth is all about reach. You need more people to know about your business and visit your website before you can start making serious money. If you’re not yet involved, develop your own social media strategy with ways to really develop relationships. Social media is not …

Christmas is approaching and we’ve been reviewing some toys and gifts suitable for a five year old.
I’ve done this same post for the last few years; gift ideas for a one year old, gift ideas for a two year old and gift ideas for a four year old. We obviously didn’t bother about gifts when Erin was three

So far this year we’ve reviewed;

1. Disney Reversible Princess Fancy Dress Costume
Erin LOVES dressing up. I mean she changes into a dressing up outfit every day after school …

No idea what type of mushroom this is but it’s the largest wild mushroom I’ve ever seen. Spotted whilst wig wamming in Scotland.
Anyone know what variety it is?

Erin’s been after us taking her camping for a while and with the summer drawing to a close I fancied getting away for another weekend myself.

We decided on ‘glamping’ and since we wanted to take Daisy (the dog) we chose a wig wam on Loch Tay. These little wooden cabins come with heating, a fridge, microwave and kettle and are the perfect compromise between full on camping (which I’ve done plenty of as a cadet and TA soldier) and staying in a cabin. Erin definitely still felt the …

This week is officially Cupcake week and in honour of this event I wanted to share with you this wonderful, foolproof cupcake recipe. I love to bake when I have time and cupcakes are one of the easiest cakes to make.
Beat 4 oz soft butter with 4 oz sugar until pale yellow, soft and fluffy. Give the butter a few seconds in the microwave if it is at all hard to make the beating easier. Add in 2 medium eggs and beat …

We’ve all been there. Long car journey with the kids in the back, bored out of their little minds while nagging you to death. My solution for Erin was a portable DVD player. She loves movies and that would keep her busy for hours. The problem with that however was carrying the equivalent of a DVD rental store around in a bag and the constant swapping DVD?s over and loss of the DVD?s down the back of the car seat.
Surely there’s an easier way?
Well, as you?d expect there …

So last time I picked out stuff from the Joe Browns catalogue that there’s no way I’d be wearing this Autumn. Here are a few bits that did catch my eye though.
I love this jacket, no idea if it would suit me but I love it.

Embroidered snood. The name’s a bit weird but I like it.

‘Irresistible top’ – I’m seriously tempted.

Ok, and I must definitely be getting old because I want these pyjamas so much!

The video below is an examle of what Samsung are looking for, it shows a mother videoing her daughter celebrating scoring a goal. If you are like me I am always …

Blogging to make money is an attractive option for stay at home mums who want to make a little extra for treats and holidays. I?m often asked, ?Can I make money from my mum blog?. My answer is yes, but if you?re really serious a much better option is to take your blogging skills and apply them to a different niche.
The problem with monetising a mum blog
I?ve made a steady income from a mum blog (a blog that chronicles your life as a mum) so it is possible, …
