Weekend Catch Up #2

Weekend Catch up

Thank you all for your lovely feedback from last weeks first Weekend Catch Up post, I will certainly continue sharing them with you!

From the recent survey that so many of you kindly filled out (thank you), I learnt that quite a few members of the community do not follow The Organised Housewife on Facebook and Instagram.  I share old posts on facebook and share a more personal side of me via photos on Instagram.  Because you are missing out on this I thought I would create a weekend catch up post each week so you can keep up to date.  Follow along on Instagram

I don’t want to be too repetitive and share the daily tasks and quotes as these are published in the daily newsletter and I share a monthly wrap of both these on the blog.

confession time…. I’ve never cooked a roast pork, until today. inspired by this weeks episode of #jamieoliver and his pulled pork left overs.

The twins left on a 4 day camp this morning, they were so excited both left smiling… me on the other hand a blubbering mess, how embarrassing. However… I get to spend some one on one quality time with Miss 9, strange having one child as I’ve only ever had 2 and then 3.
