Bright Horizons: Family friendly Food

As the smalls are getting, well, less small, dinnertimes appear to be getting more and more complicated.  As their teeny taste buds evolve they appear to dislike more, and more, and more, and more things.   *Weeps*. Like many working families we have also fallen foul of the "Let's just give them a ready meal, ping it for two minutes and we know that they will eat it" regime.  Easy? Yes.  Quick? Yes. Convenient?

Puddle-jumping Pandemonium

You need chaos in your soul to give birth to a dancing star. - Friedrich Nietzsche It's been a funny old week.  With my folks having managed to sell their house at lightning speed they unexpectedly, and welcomely,  descended upon us to start some proper house hunting.

Monday Parenting Pin It Party #129

In our final parenting pin-it-party before Xmas we are heading on over to the inspirational Otilia from Romanian Mum.  Do pop by and see who she has chosen as her featured pinners from last week's  awesome lot. It is so strange to think that this time last year we had only just moved to the countryside and couldn't light a fire.  Thankfully, the house is a lot warmer this year and we pretty much live now in our wellies.  I hope it has been a good year for all of you. If you are new to the party, it is very lovely to have you here and, if you wish to join in, here is ...

Welcome!

Jbmumofone is written by me, jbmumofone, and this blog is my baby. Although clearly I didn’t think this name through because I’m now a mum of two actual babies.

I blog because I love to write, and for sanity’s sake, and have been blogging since August 2011. So why not dig on in and explore?
