Deep breath, here we go again....

OK, I'm very, very embarassed - it's been nearly 4 years since I last wrote this blog. I've had a beautiful daughter R who is now nearly 1.5yrs old - and our little boy L is now 4.

I may have disappeared from cyberspace, but I've been busy living in a universe where my main preoccupations have been what my children eat and poo. I continue to search for the 'CBeebies holy grail' (ie the optimum amount of daily viewing so their eyes don't go square, but enough to let me do all my jobs AND have a cup of real coffee and a choc chip biccy if I can eat it quick enough before L pops his head into the kitchen'.

So why have I started blogging again? Simple. Although life is busy with juggling work, home and kids, I keep spotting great green websites, ideas and kids' stuff. So I gotta share the green love with you guys.

And this has got to be one of the best things I've seen for you mums and dads out there. 'Home made kids:
Thrifty, Creative and Eco-Friendly Ways to Raise Your Child' by Nicola Baird. The author is a friend so yes I'm a bit biased - but her credentials for this book are great. Take a look at her blog - http://homemadekids.wordpress.com - or read more about her book on Amazon.
