I am having one of those funny days where nothing

I am having one of those funny days where nothing goes right, things keep falling out of order, my anxiety seems to be on high alert and I feel exhausted like I haven’t slept well this week but I have. Ugh...I need warmer weather and sunshine to come back and recharge my batteries. I need a week off work and anxious for things to open up next week. It’s funny how fast you can fall out of routine and hard to get back into one too. It’s been a funny old time for me and I am hoping I pull myself out of this funk ASAP cause it’s annoying. I need to find my mojo again...anyone else feeling this lately? #lifecloseup

#AD | We have shared our obsession with @tescofood

#AD | We have shared our obsession with @tescofood “What Can I Make With Tool” before and we haven’t stopped using it. Just type any random three ingredients you have in the fridge or cupboard and see what delicious recipes the Tesco Recipe Website creates for you. It’s such a great way to not waste food and make new inspiring dishes for your family. We have loved every recipe we have tested out so far and learned a few things too along the way. Got a spare avocado or some pita bread you need to use up try this recipe below. The juicy Greek Salad Nachos we made this week is perfect for all these sunny days we are having right now and a perfect sharing platter for the whole family to dive into. The ingredients pair perfectly together with a zesty avocado cream on the side that is so flavourful and tasty I want to put it on everything now. Move over mayo!Recipe: Ingredients: 4 wholemeal pittas, cut into triangles 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil 125g pitted Kalamata olives, roughly chopped ½ large cucumber, chopped 4 medium tomatoes, chopped 1 red onion, finely sliced 20g fresh mint, torn 50g reduced-fat feta, crumbled For the feta and avocado sauce 50g reduced-fat feta 1 avocado, halved, stoned and peeled 3 tbsp snipped chives ½ lemon, juiced.How to: Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200˚C, fan 180˚C. Spread the pitta triangles out on 2 large baking trays, drizzle with 2 tbsp of the oil and season with salt. Bake for 8-10 mins or until golden and crispy. Meanwhile, put the olives, cucumber, tomato, onion, mint and feta in a bowl. Add the remaining olive oil, season and gently toss to combine. To make the feta and avocado sauce, put all the ingredients and 125ml water in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. To serve, spread the pitta chips on a large plate. Top with the Greek salad mix and drizzle over the avocado sauce.

#AD | With easy and delicious Easter food and drink options from @TescoFood we can put our efforts into making our Easter celebrations absolutely magical for our whole family. We share most of our family memories, laughter, giggles and holidays at the table over good quality food. It’s where I have the most childhood memories with my own parents and siblings. We are having Tesco Sweet BBQ Pulled Pork (2 for £6) with coleslaw and chives on warm brioche buns. It was so easy to make and gave me more time to spend setting up an egg hunt and Easter crafts for the kids. What are you having for your Easter dinner? If you need something easy, quick and most important mouth watering pick up Tesco Sweet BBQ pulled pork on sale now at your nearest Tesco shop. #EveryLittleHelps

Love a bit of Easter decor in the house. Kids are getting excited for Easter this Sunday. Are yours? It’s been such lovely weather this week and we are enjoying our Easter half term together. This shelf was made by accident when our new staircase was put in and I didn’t know really what to do with it but it’s been fun decorating for Xmas and Vday and now Easter. It’s become a little fun project for every special occasion for me to have in the house. Do you have a space you decorate for all the holidays? #lifecloseup

#AD | HAPPY APRIL FOOL’S DAY!! Did you see my stories today on the famous centre court turning purple? Gotcha ya - April Fooled you! @robinsons_uk and @wimbledon have collaborated to launch their new Robinsons Blackcurrant Double Strength squash. We are testing it out in the next few weeks to see what the whole family thinks. My kids love the blackcurrant flavour especially to quench their thirst with all the nice weather we are having for Easter half term. #Robinsons #LetThereBeFruit #aprilfoolsday #aprilfoolsday2021 #happyaprilfools #happyaprilfoolsday

Another day of Easter holidays in the sunshine tod

Another day of Easter holidays in the sunshine today. Another long bike ride and this time we packed a picnic to enjoy too. Baby O was at nursery and I got all my work done this morning early so we could get out and have some adventures. There was ice cream and chocolate and a jump in the paddling pool to cool off when we got home too. Phew, I am exhausted but in a good way. Happy midweek how’s your Easter break going? #lifecloseup #parkpicnic #picnicinthepark #picnicdate #snaphappybritmums #easterhalfterm #easterbreak #easterweek #easter2021 #bikerides #bikerider #lifecloseup #halfterm #halftermactivities #halftermbreak #halftermfun #halftermholiday

Yup...it’s March and we got the paddling pool out. When in England if the sun is shining we flock to it like seagulls to fries on the beach. Whilst I wasn’t about to take a dip, it didn’t phase mine to dive into this freezing cold paddling pool today. We have soaked up the garden fun and pray it stays nice for the rest of Easter holidays. Now we just need some friends to come join us...sadly a lot of our holidays are opposite of our friends this time 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ I hate that. Wish all school holidays were the same. Did you soak up the sun today? Anyone else dust off the paddling pool too? #lifecloseup #easterhalfterm #easter2021 #snapyhappybritmums #halfterm #halftermfun #easterbreak #halftermactivities #halftermbreak #halftermholiday #halftermholidays #halfterm2021 #halftermhappiness

#AD | PAW Patrol MOTO Pups is currently airing @NickJr Did you guess the new character yet? My kids are so excited. The new PAW Patrol MOTO Pups toy range is out too and even better than ever. Pop over to our stories and check out the MOTO HQ Playset and some of the Deluxe Vehicles that pop wheelies and more. Collect all of them and launch them together with the HQ Playset to make a full Adventure Bay rescue! PAW Patrol MOTO Pup toys are perfect for preschool children to spark their imagination and fun. All three of my kids love PAW Patrol and it just keeps getting better. Baby O has already had wheelie races between his two favorites Marshall and Chase's Deluxe Vehicles to see who is the fastest. He loves that they can launch off the HQ Playset doing a wheelie too! The HQ Playset has sounds from the hit tv series to make it all come to life. Are you going to watch the new MOTO Pups series and find out who the new character is? @PAWPatrol @SpinMaster #SpinMaster #PAWPatrol #MOTOPups

Ring around the merry-go-round...soon we will be able to garden visit and we can’t wait to see friends. How about you? I think we are all tired of the same walk each day, the same park visit, the same routine with the same people 🤦‍♀️😝And a big bonus after today the weather really is shaping up for us to enjoy it too!!!! Got any plans to soak it up? #lifecloseup

The house is back to being full with giggles and loudness, toys and snacks all day. We enjoyed our lie in and no rush to get dressed for anything this morning. Whilst we had plans to go to Dubai and are bummed about losing yet another holiday we are going to enjoy it as best we can with things slightly opening next week. A friend in the garden sounds like Dubai compare to the year we have had doesn’t it? All about the small things right? What are you doing for Easter holidays? What should you have been doing pre-covid plans? #lifecloseup
