Kids are pretty hard to entertain all the time and so I find I am always looking for something for us to do at home.

A scroll through Facebook brought me to this wonderful blog Laughing Kids Learn with this page in particular...a recipe for fairy dough using only three ingredients.

Thai Style Coconut Soup
One of my favourite places to eat in my hometown of Andover is Siam Orchid which is a tiny hidden gem of a Thai Resturant. The food they make is fresh, tasty, vibrant and delicious.

The courses include starters, shredded duck, soup ... Read more
