Hallo!

Welcome to my brand new blog, thank you for stopping by for a look! This site accompanies my instagram account binksbzz to give more in-depth reviews to the products, items, places I consume, use and visit.

BinksBzz was conceived upon my successful application to become a Bzz Agent. I realised that I'd started to unconsciously review and recommend things on my instagram account before I'd signed up to Bzz and this wasn't really what I wanted that account to be for. With this in mind separating out to a different account seemed a good way to go.

So I hope if you've wandered over here you like what I have to say and want to hear more about my experiences. I'm truthful to a fault so everything you read will be my own experience, good or bad (although most likely in a diplomatic way, I will never be mean about anything or anyone!)

Please do introduce yourself to me, I'd love to hear your experiences with the things I review too :-)

Birchbox - July 2017

I've uhmed and ahhed about posting this one, you know, if you haven't got something nice to say then you shouldn't say it kinda thing, but after seeing others be really disappointed with Birchbox and frequently seeing their offers designed to entice you in I've decided to put this out there. Maybe I'll return to them one day but this is where I'm at right now... I had a really bad month in July (seems to be a running theme at the moment, life is very trying right now) and, in a moment of weakness, I’m ashamed to say I fell for one of Birchboxes two for one offers.  These involve you purchasing their box of the month and them sending you a mystery box with another five items.  I partly justified this to myself because I fancied trying one of the products in July’s box and partly because I had a plan for the additional two drawer boxes they send their product in. I won’t be making the mistake again (seriously, I’ve even hidden them from my facebook feed beca...

Cheats Maltloaf

Ok, so it's not really a malt-loaf, but it does have the characteristics of one whilst being a super easy recipe and much nicer, in my opinion, to those shop bought lunch box ones you can get (and much healthier!)  I've been experimenting with this recipe for several months now and think I've finally cracked it.  Would love to hear your thoughts if you decide to give it a go! A post shared by Amy Elizabeth (@mummytreatsandtreasaures) on Jan 8, 2018 at 12:22pm PST Ingredients 1 cup of brewed Earl Grey tea 3 Wheatabix (or other such cereal - we quite like the Tesco own brand ones!) 1 cup of sultanas 1 tbsp honey (I've left this out before and it's still a nice cake just a bit more tart) 1 cup self raising flour 1 tsp baking powder Peel of one orange finally grated Splash of orange juice Method Place the sultanas, Weatabix (broken up), honey and tea in a bowl and mix Leave for at least two hours to soak (can leave in the fridge overnight if y...

Glossybox - January 2018

I think Glossybox is the one box I've stuck with longer than all the others and that's quite possibly because I'm still finding uses for the majority of the products they supply. This month is no different although it did come with quite a big let down, a box of multi nutritional supplements - something I can't take safely whilst breastfeeding my little one ☹️ That aside though, overall I'm still impressed with their box, enough that I'm going to keep the subscription going for another month! (Remember, if you do want to unsubscribe from Glossybox, you need to do so by the 14th of the month or you'll automatically roll your subscription over another month - I'm hearing rumours that it's also a lot less painless a process if you pay through PayPal!)
