I’m a big fan of soup for chilly winter lunches and this Broccoli Soup recipe is super quick and easy to make. And because it uses broccoli stalks that would otherwise be thrown away it is also very cheap and will help you reduce food waste into the bargain!

And just like that we’re back to normal. Toby and Gabe have been back at school for a week and we’re pretty much settled back into our routine. There was a bit of grumbling from them both last week but on the whole it’s been quite stress-free.

If you are a mum and you run a small business of your own then you will have to travel around a lot by car to attend business meetings. Whether you head out on the road to meet up with clients or to attend meetings with colleagues, the chances are that you will be travelling more miles on the road per week than the average commuter. This means that car servicing is crucial, not just for ensuring you get where you are going efficiently but also in terms of your personal safety.
I’m writing this on Christmas Eve and Toby and Gabe are bouncing off the walls with excitement! We’ve already been out to soft play this morning to try and burn off some energy but I’m not sure it’s helped much!

We are almost there. The boys have only got three more days of school to go, and one of those is mostly going to be spent at the panto! They are both exhausted though so I’m glad we’re on the home stretch now.
