Here we go!

I'm a stay at home mum in Scotland. I'm trying to find a part time job but in this current climate, jobs seem to be few and far between, especially for mums like myself, who can't be so flexible about working hours!
Anyway, this blog is to keep track of my often chaotic attempts to keep our heads above water. I do a lot of cooking from scratch, making our own clothes, making homemade gifts and reconstructing old things into new.
There will be recipes, tutorials and lots of photos. Come and join me as I try to take care of my kids, keep the house clean and still have a good time, all on a shoestring!
