Listography – 5 photos that sum up my week

1) Tassimo – this my best friend before 7am every morning! The only complaint I have is that my favourite caramel drink is always out of stock at Tesco so I may have to resort to buying 5 packs at a time from Amazon!

2) Lists – I decided at the start of last week that I was fed up of nagging the children to do their chores and having to listen to, ‘I forgot’ every time I asked why a job hadn’t been done so I made everyone (apart from daddy who has enough work to do at work!) a list of daily chores.
It worked really well and we’ve had a lovely tidy house all week. One of the best things about the schedule is that doing all the chores daily helped stop them all piling up, like the laundry and the ironing, which meant I had more time to spend with the kids; we’ve had activity time most nights where they take it in turns to choose the activity and it’s been lovely.

3) Cake – ’nuff said!

4) Fruit and blender – We bought this blender from Sainsbury’s a few weeks ago and finally got it out of the box this morning. The kids now have a new love of fruit! We make smoothies, milkshakes and yogurt drinks and the girls especially love chopping up the fruit and adding all the ingredients.

5) The garden has been on mind all week. It needs a really good tidy up and sort out. I’m itching to get out there and get it tidied up, sorted out. The raised bed needs digging and compost adding ready for the vegetables and the pots need emptying, cleaning and sorting ready for the flowers I’ve started to grow. I plan to have lots and lots of pots and hanging baskets this year so we get a garden bursting with colour 🙂

    We too got a blender recently and must say its one of the best things to have a fresh smoothy of a morning.

    It surprised me as well! I must admit it was lovely to come down from getting the girl's to bed and not have to face a weeks worth of school ironing 🙂

    Thanks for another great listography 🙂

    Love your lists idea – though I can't believe it actually worked!
