What went down at the #ECMeetup

The #ECMeetup happened this weekend and I am suffering from some sort of event hangover thing. I always do (if I’m honest) When it comes to events the build up, then all the peopling, then the nothingness…Always catches me in the feels.

But before those feels…these feels!

The meetup was a huge success the setting was beautiful, the food was amazing, the people were the usual “friendly city” PE vibe and me, I’m so thankful!!!

My current wash and go using the L’Oreal Curl Nourishment Range

Firstly I know you have seen the  L’Oreal Curl Nourishment Range sponsored posts everywhere, but this isn’t one. I was just curious about the products and wanted to try it out for myself so I did… with my own money because L’Oreal won’t love me, even though, in the words of Beyonce “I make me so d*amn easy to love”  anyways jokes aside ….

This is how I currently do my hair using the L’Oreal Curl Nourishment Range, specifically the Low Shampoo, Deep conditioner and leave in (each under R100 )

Ultimate Hasbro stocking fillers for kids (win all six)

Today is all about stocking fillers for kids and I am very excited to have Hasbro onboard. Hasbro is a leader in toy manufacturing so instead of giving you company history – like I have been with the other stocking fillers – Aidan and I give you our honest opinion on what we deem AWESOME STOCKING FILLERS.

Our MyKi watch experience

We recently tested out a MyKi watch and I have some thoughts. Firstly this was not a sponsored post,  I was just chatting to the PR person running the MyKi watch campaign , saying that although I liked the concept,  I was not sure it would work for Aidan and she said, “hey test it out for two weeks and see what you think”…

So here is what I thought.

A Christmas Gift from the Letter lady (win win win)

I came across the Letter lady on facebook (Do you ever go out and meet people in real life? Do you Eleanor?) I was so impressed with their products that I simply had to ask Janine van Loggerenberg if she would join in on my Christmas giveaway. She said yes because who says no to me? (many more people than I’d like actually) She actually said yes because she likes spreading Christmas joy and I am so glad to have her on board.

 

Before I tell you all about her, just a reminder of how this competition works…I am filling bag at home with Stocking Stuffers. I will announce a new addition to the competition every Tuesday and Thursday and at the end of the run (first week in December) someone will win the  whole package…Back to how you can win a Elf door for your little one

Painful Mondays: Step one in lazy girl fitness

What is this lazy girl fitness? Well today I sit at my desk with sore muscles and tingly skin, the kind of tingly that says, You ALMOST messed up with the sun block application missy.

For the last  five or so weeks this has been me on a Monday and I realise I might have stumbled on a lazy girl fitness strategy, I’ve upped my activity level on weekends in a bid to spend more time outside with my boys, and I think I might be “accidentally” getting fitter.
