Festive Mugs | BLOGMAS DAY 21
 I love making things festive in my house, even the mugs! These Christmas-inspired mugs are so easy to make and will make your hot chocolate even more fitting for the holiday season. Why not prepare these the night before Christmas Eve and then enjoy them with my Peppermint White Chocolate recipe?

I’d love to see your creations! Tweet me your designs are @fessjarmer and i’ll share them!

Ingredients

White chocolate
Red and Green sprinkles, or create your own designs (I found mine at Home Bargains)

Method

1. Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie or in the microwave (30 second blasts).

 

2. Dip the rim of the mugs in the chocolate.

 


3. Quickly dip the chocolate rims into the sprinkles. Place in the fridge to set.

 

 

And if you’re interested…

Easter Coconut and Vanilla Popcorn Slices

Usually Easter is a chocolate lover’s favourite time of year, but as there are always an abundance of chocolatey recipes going around, I thought I’d try and bake something a bit different! I originally found this recipe on Pinterest, on www.somethingswanky.com but I’ve mixed and changed it up a little […]

  • BUSY | Gosh, it’s been a busy old week with this little man! I’ve been out everyday so far! As much as I’m quite knackered, it feels good. . 💖 We started the week off well with a trip to Boston Tea Party with little Freddie & @amyjaneandbaby Tuesday was back to town for his vaccines, which went as well as any vaccine can! Wednesday we were at @the_motherhood_society Father’s day workshop (did A LOT of walking yesterday to get to the venue!) and today we were back in town again for a dr appointment for me! . 😴 Yesterday afternoon though, I was giving up. I was knackered from walking and Joseph wouldn’t nap 😅 Typical! Thankfully he slept well last night 🙌🏼 . 🌸 It doesn’t stop there though because tomorrow we are back in in town! And then my mum, sister and niece are coming to stay until Monday! It’s all systems go at the moment!! . 🍃 How are you spending your weekend? Did you know that it’s the Science Fest next week in Cheltenham. Thanks @lucydodsworth for the reminder! P.S Joseph loves his little fox from @jellycat_collection 😻 #3monthsoldbaby #jellycat #comforter #busyoldweek #busybusy #discoverunder2k
  • Tonight I’m here to talk about gardens. My garden in particular! I’m not sure what came over me but tonight I actually watered it. 😱 . 🙌🏼 I think I know why. I’ve had a good day, starting off with a wonderful brunch with @amyjaneandbaby & Freddie at Boston Tea Party. The sun is still out. Joseph slept lots today. We’re slowly getting our evening routine down to a T. I know everyday won’t always go as smoothly as tonight (I mean, I’ve still got to actually put Joseph in his pod 😅) but I’m just bathing in my own positivity right now, hoping I can keep this good mood going all week! . 🌸 Now onto the garden chat: We’ve been slowly doing up the garden since December, starting with taking away our old hedge and gate and installing our new fence which you might remember from my stories. We opted for a low maintenance fence from the company @colourfenceltd Since then, my mother-in-law has planted a little rockery with plants that I chose, as well as a couple of other plants. My dad has designed some decking for us to my specifications, which we’re hoping to have up by summer! I’m thinking to put a sofa/bbq on there, as well as some herbs in pots. . 🍃 I’m not very green-fingered but I want to be. You wouldn’t think I used to work for a garden magazine! I’ve got good intentions but now need the perseverance to try to keep it going. I want to start creating my own ideas for it rather than letting the parents take over. They know more than me but I want to know too! There’s research to be done but hopefully this time next year, I’ll be a...gardener (you were thinking millionaire weren’t you!) Tropical plants are my fave, as well as wildflowers and long, luscious grasses. . 🌳 What’s your garden situation? Are you green-fingered or are you like me, a bit lazy but with good intentions? #gardeningknowhow #gardening #plantpots #silvercrossuk #dawnnurseries #cheltenham #greenfingers #discoverunder2k
  • This little swimmer was 3 months yesterday! 💦 . 🐟 Joseph really enjoyed @turtletotsglos this afternoon, followed by a kip at The Air Balloon pub! 🙌🏼 Thanks for letting mummy and daddy eat all their lunch plus dessert! #turtletotsglos #3monthsbaby #swimmingbaby #konfidencejacket #babywarma #gloucestershirebaby #cotswoldbaby #cotswoldmama #shethespypresets
  • Did you know that Pitville Park has a new cafe selling coffees, ice creams, cake etc! Maybe it’s not new and I’ve been living under a rock! 🙈 Have you been? . 🎠 I was amazed at the park too! So many new bits! I can’t wait to spend time down there with Joseph once he can crawl/walk! . #pitvillepark #pitvillecheltenham #playparkcafé #pitvillecafe #cheltenhamcafe #gloucestershire #playparks #kidfriendly #activitiesforkids #woodenbuildings
  • Play dates | I can’t express how important these are! With Joseph, I welcomed visitors from the start. It was nice to see a friendly face that wasn’t my husband/parents (no offence!) Visitors were like my contact with the outside world! . ☀️ Now that Joseph is more alert and more able to interact, I’ve taken him to a few baby groups and have also had friends over for play dates. It’s more for me than him at the moment, and it often helps to break up the day which can sometimes seem long when waiting for Fabio to come home! . 👶 It was lovely to finally meet @thementalmummy little boy, Joshua. The two J’s seem to be enjoying the sun that came out this morning, although in the second photo they don’t seem so sure!! We sat out in the garden, on the picnic rug and chatted about babies, napping, garden fences, the durrells... you know, the usual! 😂 . 👌 Meeting new people and getting out in the fresh air, from my experience so far, seems to wear Joseph out! He’s been napping for two hours this afternoon... must do this more often! . 💖 Do you have play dates often? If so, where do you go for them? #playdates #cheltenham #twolittleboys #picnicrug #11monthsapart #babyfriends #fourthtrimester #postnatalcare #visitorswelcome
  • Feeling hot hot hot! I don’t know about you but I’m feeling extra hot in this heat, carrying Joseph around in the carrier! Could have one of these mint choc ice creams from the new cafe near the play park in pitville! ☀️ . ☀️ How are you spending this sunny Tuesday? If you’re working, got any evening plans? I’m in #stroud currently.. Joseph is having a lovely time being entertained by strangers (lovely ones I must add)! One lady made him laugh more than he ever laughed before!! Typical 😂 Was nice to hear his proper giggle again. He started laughing the other day for the first time - he’s so sweet! 💖 #12weekoldbaby #mintchocicecream #pitvillepark #cheltenham #sunnydays #iscreamforicecream
  • This little one is currently napping on my shoulder! Half an hour earlier than the scheduled nap time but that’s ok. It’s funny because yesterday i struggled to get him to sleep at his nap time (8:30am)! . ☀️It’s a lot brighter out today which is lovely! I was planning on going for a walk with Joseph to get some eggs from the house around the corner, which sells them in a little hen house at the end of their drive. My plan was to make Joseph sleepy but it seems he’s already there! Might just pop him in the carrier and go anyway! . 🙌🏼 Happy Friday anyway! What are your weekend plans? We’ve got no plans as of yet apart from Joseph’s swimming on Sunday. It’s meant to be lovely weather so I think a BBQ of some sort will be on the cards again! #sleepybaby #silvercrosspram #11weeksoldbaby #fridayvibes #naptimes #noplansweekend #cheltenham #napchat
  • I agree with @amyjaneandbaby that sometimes I just don’t know what to say on here! Today has been a good day though. Joseph is slowly getting into some sort of ‘routine’.. and I feel like I’m getting some small wins. 🙌🏼 . 💤 It’s bath and bedtime soon, and we’re going to try putting him down at 7:30pm instead with a dream feed at 10pm, with the bottle as advised by @piecebyjackson 💖 Let’s see what happens! . 🍼 I’ve also ordered a NUK latex teat bottle as he might prefer that, as suggested by @zimmer_ae 🙌🏼 At least we have more options! Will be trying MAM afterward if they don’t work. . 🍰 Oh yeah, this slice of lemon cake from @centralcrosscafe was delish. Picked it up on a walk through Pitville park on Tuesday. Did you know that their forks are compostable? 🙌🏼 Love that little cafe so much! Have you been? #pitvillepark #centralcrossdrivecafe #pitvilleparkcheltenham #cheltenhampark #lemondrizzlecake #stojo #coffeebreak #bottlefeedingbreastmilk
  • It’s a lazy one for us today as someone decided to wake up four times last night! . 😅 @samanthadavisloves and I are wondering how to get through this 3rd leap?! And is there a 3 month sleep regression? 😂 #parentinghelp #parentingadvice #newparents #fourthtrimestermama #sleepregression #thirdleap #thewonderweeks
