Halloween Countdown 2017! Thirteen Days of Horror! Day I- Kinder Surprise ‘Glowing Ghosties’ toys from 1996!

It's that time of year again! That glorious but finite occasion where confectionery in stores become suddenly horror themed, costume parties are aplenty and we garb our homes in cobwebs, plastic spiders and other seasonably fiendish items.

The Christmas reveal post 2016!

        Before I write about cheerful fun things, I feel I should acknowledge the sad death of Carrie Fisher.  Initially I was in shock and in disbelief when I was first informed about it. She was a fantastic, witty woman and a strong advocate for mental health. And to so many she …

Rainbow Grilled Cheese Toasties! Sometimes the internet throws things at you that look and sound too interesting not to try.
