We're on Instagram, come say hi!

NEW BLOG POST🚨!! If the thought of "crafting" with the kids can sometimes leave you a bit 🙅🏼 then: 🅰️You're not alone 🙋🏻🙋🏻 ( I mean you should need a licence to use glitter, am I right!?) and 🅱️You need to click on the link in bio A.S.A.P because this 👆🏼 is one gorgeous autumn 🍂 craft activity that requires zero pipe cleaners, paint or stress AND the kids LOVED it! 👌🏼 You can thank me later 💁🏻. 🍂
🍁
In other news, Juliet and I are heading to @hellofresh HQ this evening for their #StressLess event celebrating the launch 🚀 of their new family boxes. There's going to be food, 🍹 , great speakers (we’ll see you there @lizzieloveshealthy 👋) and a DJ so it totally counts as "OUT OUT" right? 💃🏻💃🏻 Anyone else coming along?
#themotherhub #gettingcrafty #outout #autumnvibes #wednesday

So today felt less "Self Care Sunday" and more "Whirlwind Sunday". Even though we did loads; homework 📚 crafts 🍂 cooking 👩🏻‍🍳 , painted a dresser and tackled tonnes of laundry (SO - MUCH laundry 🤦🏻‍♀️), it still feels a bit like I didn't get much done?! Does that ever happen to you? 🤷🏻‍♀️⠀
🌪 ⠀
🌪⠀
On a brighter note, I cut these 👆🏼hydrangeas from our garden today.⠀
Aren't they gorgeous? I mean there are defintely some bugs 🐜 lurking in there and they're prob a little past their best but still .. super chuffed I've grown *coughs* my husband has grown a whole bouquet in the garden 💐👌🏼 ⠀
p.s can we admire the skills of yours truly not getting her reflection in the pic?👀 📸 Hope you've all had a fab day! Natasha x #themotherhub #Sunday #lookonthebrightside #hydrangeas #garden #hesthegardener

Morning, Natasha here 👋 When it comes to brunch Juliet and I have a clear motto "go big or go home!" Can you tell? 😂👆🏼 ⠀
✨⠀
Juliet rustled up these "baked eggs of dreams" last weekend and shared them on stories which left me with a serious case what I like to call "FOMOOF" (fear of missing out on food) 🐷 👈🏼 me always 😬.⠀
✨⠀
✨⠀
I'll be making up for it today though as I'm heading over to a friend's house after the school run for a big girlie brunch and cannot wait. 👯👯🥞🥐 ☕️ ⠀
✨⠀
Juliet is super busy today getting everything ready for her littlest's birthday on Saturday and probably elbow deep in batter and edible confetti as we speak 🎉 👩🏻‍🍳. Honestly guys, her cakes are EPIC 🎂! (No pressure Jules 😉😘) ⠀
Hope you all have a great day whatever you've got planned! ⠀
✨⠀
P.s If you have any great brunch recommendations please share them below because.. "FOMOOF " ✋🏼😆Nxx #friday #themotherhub #brunch #instafood #fomoof ⠀

Juliet was really happy to chat to @editionmags recently about her fave places to eat, shop and hang out in Brentwood and Chelmsford 🙌🏽⠀
💫⠀
The interview is up on their site now, so follow the link in our bio ☝🏽 to have a little look at her top local haunts and find out how she ended up in Essex, and why she's not tempted to move back to London...! ❤️🙌🏽⠀
