Here in New Zealand, our kids are heading back to school tomorrow after seven weeks of online schooling during Level 4 & 3 Lockdown. SEVEN WEEKS! I’m happy for the boys as I know they have missed their friends, but, I’m a little bit (ok, a LOT!) nervous about the whole post-lockdown environment. We haven’t rushed back into pre-covid life …

I’d given up on home printers years ago, but after receiving Epson’s innovative WorkForce EcoTank Printer to review, I’m ready to smash work, life admin and school projects in 2018 – without running out of ink once.

School holidays kick off here in New Zealand next week and I like to be organised and have a pretty clear plan of what we’re going to do or where we’re going to go each day. This helps me get organised and also (hopefully) avoid the “I’m bored” catch-cry that’s every mummy’s nightmare! It’s also Create Month at Warehouse …

Subscription boxes of all descriptions are huge right now, am I right? Whatever you’re into, be it make-up, jewellery, food, organics, kids toys……..you can part with your cash and get a box of ‘happy mail’ landing on your doorstep once a month.
