Wonderful Pistachios
‘Wonderful® Pistachios from California are perfectly seasoned for a delicious flavour with a satisfying crunch’ (wonderful Pistachios)
I can vouch for the above! I have adored these fab nuts from I was a young girl. I remember going to stay with my Grandma during the summer holidays and pistachios were our little treat! Grandma would say that for months after we left she would find the shells all over the garden and house!
A Canadian based company, Wonderful Pistachios, have taken these nuts to another level. If you look at www.wonderfulpistachios.co.uk you will find all sorts of flavors at a great price. Choose from roasted salted, salt and pepper, sweet chili and even the nuts without any added salt.

‘Discover the UK’s first certified organic DD cream, a Daily Defence SPF15. This advanced anti-ageing tinted moisturiser with Sea Fennel stem cells gives blendable coverage for a smooth and even skin tone’
(The Green People)
I have long been a huge fan of The Green People. I adore their skincare products and find they are the only company I can say I completely trust to deliver natural, organic and eco friendly products. I have recommended their ‘Day Solution’ facial moisturiser to several of my friends and family. This works particularly well with sensitive skin giving impressive results. They also have some beautifully boxed sets which make great gifts.

Kazam Tornado 348
Phones, oh how they have changed! I remember my first phone like it was yesterday – and to be honest, I did hang onto it for quite some time. Yes, it was old but it worked and served me well. It’s like all products, if they work well and if the company offers a good follow up service, we can rest easy continuing to use that particular product in the faith that, in unforeseen events, we have a back up plan.
The KAZAM Tornado 348 is the exact product you are looking for if you need the latest technology combined with super ‘all singing all dancing’ customer care.
Like any other android phone, you can have all the apps you like to keep you connected, with all the latest super smart features. All this, yet the KAZAM Tornado 348 still manages to be the worlds slimmest smartphone at an amazing 5.15mm!

Moonpig Gift Boxes for Mother’s Day.
I can’t believe how fast the year is passing! Mother’s day is creeping upon us now and I have a really great suggestion which will cover all bases – the card, a personal photo/message and a wonderful gift mum will love. How? – why with Moonpig of course!
With Moonpig you simply select your card, add a photo or message and then pick from some wonderful gift boxes – all this without moving from one site to another! I think this is a fabulous way of saving your time and delivering a wonderful meaningful gift this Mother’s Day.
I adore Moonpig’s new ‘Bath in a Box’ gift set. My mum would love this and so would I. The set, as with all Monnpig’s gifts, comes wonderfully presented in a sturdy gift box which is perfect for reusing as yet another storage box! I love it when a gift arrives in a nice box and I re-use it as a storage container for hair clips/sewing accessories/buttons/make-up etc.
The set itself includes:
- Secret Paradise Hydrating Body Cream 200ml
- Secret Paradise Cleansing Shower Cream 200ml
- Secret Paradise Bathing Flowers 70g
- Lily Flame ‘Bathing Beauty’ Large Scented Candle
- Exfoliating Body Puff
With a selection like this, mum will be delighted with the ‘Bath in a Box’ gift from Moonpig. RRP £35
On another note, I wanted to show how Moonpig can be very handy for a various range of gifts. My daughter gets asked to so many parties and keeping on top of the presents is sometimes difficult. Sometimes I resort to putting money in with the card but I think its hard to beat receiving an actual gift. Have a look at Moonpig’s ‘Girls Night In Box’ below. RRP £25
I asked my daughter to have a look at the range and select something for her friend’s birthday and this was what she picked.
The set contains:
- Retox Pack – contains hair, eye, face & foot mask
- Nail Art Pink & Yellow duo with glitter
- Safari Nail care kit
- Friendship bracelets
- Nail Polish Remover Pads
