Friday Favourites:
The One About Dinner
This week I struggled getting the kids to eat their dinner, but eventually we got there. A few of my favourite things happened earlier in the week, and one happens tomorrow (Saturday), so it hasn’t even happened yet but I know I’m going to love it! Don’t forget, if you have a favourite blog, please share it with us below by clicking on the “ADD YOUR LINK” button.
1. Kids Ate Their F’ing Dinner
Getting my kids to eat has always been the bane of my existence, until this week. Until I got pushed to the brink of insanity, and published a post about getting pissed off. You guys read it, and responded with a solution, and it worked. For the last four nights, my kids have eaten their dinner. THANK YOU FOR YOUR BRILLIANT SUGGESTION!

2. Sunbeam FoodSaver
I got given a Sunbeam FoodSaver to try out, and ended up doing a wee video on 5 different things you can use with the FoodSaver, other than sealing food. I absolutely love this machine – when I’m feeling motivated, I chop up all of my veggies for the week and vacuum seal them. Check out the other things you can do with it here:

3. Little Treasures Magazine
I completely forgot that I got asked a couple of questions for the Little Treasures Magazine, and was so chuffed when so many of you sent me photos of it. Thank you so much to Little Treasures Magazine for including a wee piece of me in there:

4. The Bubbalino Kitchen Cooking Demo
Last weekend I went to Vanessa’s (from The Bubbalino Kitchen) Cooking Demo on “Winter Warming Solutions For Your Busy Family”. I’m a firm believer in the “knowledge is power” mantra, so I went along and wasn’t disappointed. Vanessa was clearly in her element, and showed us a couple of really awesome recipes that can be used in a multitude of ways. I came away feeling inspired – so thank you Vanessa!

5. General Collective
This weekend in Auckland is the General Collective – “A superb line up of New Zealand ‘creatives’ showcasing their handmade wares” … I’ve never been to a GC Market before, but know so many amazing businesses that are there. So I’ve managed to wrangle the car from my husband and am heading off there tomorrow. I’m so excited!
