How to add a “Pin It” button to your iPhone or iPad

Categories:

by geekmummy

Have you played with Pinterest at all yet? It’s a graphical bookmarking site. You bookmark images by “pinning” them, and you can organise those images into “boards”. And of course it has a social element, so you can see whatever your friends have “pinned” as well. All great fun. I quite enjoy it, but I’ve …

How do you sponsor a pot plant?

Categories:

by geekmummy

I must confess to being somewhat confused by an envelope than came home with the geekdaughter from nursery yesterday. It seems she is getting involved with a major charity’s fundraising activity where she will plant bulbs and grow them, and also paint a decoration for her plant pot. I actually have no problem with this …

Listography – Mugs!

Categories:

Listography

by geekmummy

This is my current mug of choice. It's bone china, so not too heavy, and it fits perfectly under the nozzle of my coffee machine. Perfect!

I don’t know why, but the Listography theme for this week has really caught my interest. Kate is asking us all to show her our mugs! And after initially thinking that I didn’t have any interesting mugs I had a little delve through our mug cupboard, and I managed to dig out a couple of …

Meal Planning Monday

by geekmummy

I am noticing a pattern with my meal plans. We seem to start off well, and stick with them in the early part of the week, but then as we get towards the end of the week everything goes to pot a little. There’s always a good reason for this, and in fact last week …
