Refresh and Rebrand!

You may have noticed I've been a bit quiet of late... read non-existent on the blogsphere!  Nothing to worry about, we've just been on a much needed family holiday, a cruise no less (I didn't tell you about it because, well, you never know who's listening do you?!)  We're now back and I'm lovely and refreshed.  

The break gave me a good opportunity to think about things and it turns out I didn't really like the way this account was going!  I think there's a whole lot more I can give to you that the restrictions of "BinksBzz" just wasn't allowing.  So it's time for a bit of a change, starting with the name, my blog and instagram will now be known as Mummy Treats and Treasures which I think better reflects the direction I want to go in.  I hope you're as excited about the new possibilities as I am!  

Now just to find the time to write all my ideas down!

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...

Google Pixel 2 (the small one!)

*waving* hi there, remember me?! You'd be forgiven if you don't, I've been somewhat missing these past few months! My much loved, although often cursed, mobile decided to give up on me and that, along with my germy kids, has led to a pretty unproductive me. I am, however, back! And today this blog post comes courtesy of my brand new Google Pixel 2 (the small one!) So it seems fitting that I dedicate this post to my first impressions of the phone itself 🙂 A post shared by Amy Elizabeth (@mummytreatsandtreasures) on Oct 30, 2017 at 1:52pm PDT Forgive the dodgy photo, I couldn't take a picture of my new phone with my new phone! A caveat, this is a none scientifically analytical post. There's loads of them around already, you know the ones with all the benchmarks and snazzy technical language? Yeah, you won't get that here. This post is purely my impression and how it's fitting into my life so far. After ordering just before the phone was...

Spoilabox - August 2017

I'd hoped to have been writing this to you at the beginning of the August but, as is typical, my Spoilabox was delivered about an hour after we set off on holiday! So disappointing as I'd been expecting it several days earlier but a nice surprise to return to after the holiday blues set in! A post shared by Amy Elizabeth (@mummytreatsandtreasures) on Sep 1, 2017 at 1:54pm PDT This is actually my last box from them for a while, as one of the more expensive boxes (when you take into account the hefty delivery fee) I just can't justify the outlay in the run up to Christmas. I had thought I would keep this one and unsubscribe from Glossybox but I'm actually really enjoying their boxes at the moment (and they're cheaper!) So, as an aside, I can confirm that unsubscribing from Spoilabox is nice and easy (provided you turn your mobile browser to desktop view!) Handy if you're dipping your toes into their water's as it comes with no hidden hurdles....
