*This post contains affiliate links We’ve all heard about the rising cost of living, and energy bills, in particular, going up and up. But staying warm in winter is still necessary for our comfort and wellbeing, as we can’t simply sit in the cold to save money. However, there are plenty of ways to keep warm without turning the thermostat up. And getting that cosy feeling, whether you’re at home or away, is one of the simple joys of these cooler seasons. So, here are some handy tips to help you snuggle up and stay warm in winter. Layer up the bed A simple way to boost your comfort is by layering in hot water bottles and luxury bed throws . They’re stylish, reusable, and help you stay warm without touching the thermostat — ideal for cold nights or just curling up with a book. As we spend a good portion of our lives in bed (if we’re lucky), let’s start with how to keep warm at night. And there’s more to keeping warm in bed than popping on the highest tog duvet. Layering up bed cloth......

A little Instalife
Around once a month I like to do a little instagram round up of what we have been getting up to as they are of course little snapshots of our life and help capture those little moments and simple pleasures. We are counting the days down to officially welcoming Spring and have been making the most of every dry day that has come our way, as well as making new things and discovering new places. 1. Loving this simple Apple, Cucumber and Lime drink 2. Enjoying the sun rays in North London after visiting The George Home 3. Capturing Colour in Cardiff on St Davids Day 4. A walk in the park with my little knight 5. A tired baby G after an exciting day out in London 6. Cooking up a yummy root and kale soup 7. Getting ready for mothers day with this beautiful Thortful card 8. Treading the boards and trying out the new pastries at Brod , Danish bakery in Pontcaan 9. A city adventure with this little man, dressed for the cold. What have you been getting up to this month?...

Instalife
I thought it was about time I did a little instagram roundup of what we have been getting up to the past few weeks. Since having the baby and my time recovering we have been trying to take things slow and enjoy all the simple pleasures such as the changes of the season, good food and min family adventures. 1. Indulging in some Easter egg crafting 2. The two boys having fun 3. Treated myself to "The Art of Eating Well" by Hemsley Hemsley 4. Daffodils always mean spring to me...I love having flowers in the home 5. My favourite breakfast smoothie - Banana and Oat 6. Cherry blossoms in Roath Park 7. Brotherly love 8. Homemade veggie soup for the soul 9. This little guy is growing fast ...

Simple Home Comforts
This week has all been about home comforts. We have spent a lot of time in the garden, putting up our mini greenhouse and planting all our seeds, which will hopefully flourish into a lovely herbs and veg during the summer. I also made a very heart veg and pearl barley soup which is basically comfort in a bowl. We have of course been keeping to our "at least 30min outside" everyday no matter what the weather although it's been lovely and dry this week, which is a huge bonus. We have also been playing dress up a lot lately with Mr A either being a little Indian, Dinosaur or Pirate....

A lunch date with Bill
So we had a rare day date the other day and decided to finally try out the new New York inspired Bill's restaurant and deli shop in Cardiff for a spot of lunch. It has a great vibe to it and it doesn't feel like a chain at all, with cool looking staff, bare-brick walls and wrought iron spiral staircase you feel like your in a downtown loft. Drinks - as soon as I saw they did Elderflower presse I had to have some - this can come either hot or cold and opted for a cold sparking class of elderflower with cut strawberries - very yummy. John went for a retro serve coca cola in the original glass bottles, which was a nice touch. Food - John opted for the homemade fish finger sandwich - which may sound boring but this was fish fingers gourmet style - big chunky and tasty with equally well presented chips that came in a little tin cup. I only wanted something light and had a real craving for tomatoes so I had to give the Tomato and basil soup which was very tasty and not......
