Power Air Fryer XL 5 litre – Review
I have wanted an air fryer for the longest time but never bit the bullet until recently (June). I thought maybe they were a gimmick and would gather dust like many other kitchen gadgets I’ve bought over the years (hello egg steamer!) After much research, I went with the Power Air Fryer XL 5 litre.

Back to School Prep with DEALZ and PEP&CO #ad
With 3 of my kids now going to school this September (can I get a whooop!?), I try to make the least amount of shopping trips as possible.

Here’s How I Reuse Old Leggings
I posted this tip on my Instagram stories and had so many people say it was something they never thought of that I thought I should post here too. My daughters love leggings. Heck, I love leggings! so I hate when my kids get a hole in their leggings from falling or just general mucking

World Breastfeeding Week. Why I don’t think Breast is Best for Everyone. Fed is Best.
It’s taken me years to finally feel comfortable sharing my breastfeeding experiences. I’ve faced a lot of backlash for being made feel I’m anti-breastfeeding for saying fed is best rather than breast is best.

Ardmore Farm & mini Zoo Co.Waterford – Review
Last week we stayed in Dungarvan, Co.Waterford for a little break away with the kids. We stayed in The Park Hotel in Dungarvan as we heard Dungarvan is a great spot and it didn’t disappoint. When booking through the hotel we could add on some extras, one of them was a family ticket to Ardmore

The 8th Amendment DOES NOT Save Lives #repealthe8th
Lately, we keep hearing how the 8th amendment saves lives. The ‘LoveBoth’ crowd say if abortion was available here millions people would not be here today. I was recently asked on twitter by an anti-choice zealot which one of my kids would I have aborted if abortion had been available here. That really hurt, they

Where to buy Pro-Choice/Repeal The 8th Merchandise. Badges, Bumper Stickers & More
I see a lot of people wondering where they can get Pro-Choice/Repeal merchandise so I thought it would make sense to do a post here with all the shops I know of. I will add to the list as I come across more shops. Most importantly all the shops I list give their profits (or a

Lush Sleepy Lotion – Does it work?
Like most parents, I will give anything a bash in hopes that the baby will sleep without waking up lots during the night. So when I heard about Sleepy Lotion from Lush I had to try it. I’m already a Lush fan so it was partially an excuse to go and get some bath bombs

WIN a Kite Flyer Finn doll from Lottie Dolls
We are big fans of Lottie dolls in our house, even the boys, so when we were asked to be Lottie Doll Brand Ambassadors over the Summer we were delighted. I’ve written about them before here. I’m a firm believer that dolls are for children, they shouldn’t be gender specific, just like all toys shouldn’t.
