This post is sponsored by Bayer. To make sure these products are right for you, always read and follow the label. Well, cold and flu season is here. Every year, it’s the same story. Despite our best efforts, most of us will be forced to admit defeat and retreat to our sofas with a healthy supply of tissues and hot liquids. Trust me I am more than familiar with this.

This season the cough is the thing…

Now normally if I had an extra day, I would totally use it to work. I would. Just telling it as it is.

How Do You Tackle Cold Sores? #Abreva #ColdSore #GetReal
Winter is here. For my daughter and me, that means one thing – colds, often accompanied by by cold sores. Every winter, my daughter and I both get cold sores. They pop up at least once every cold and flu season. It’s horrible. They hurt sometimes and they look awful. It even pains me to see my daughter with that cracked, chapped lip cold sore every year. It looks like it hurts, but my sporty daughter is not super on top of tackling them at the outset. After years of this though I am on top of it and luckily we’ve found some ways to limit them as a family. Colds Sores – The Bane of Winter I…

I am a soup lover. In the winter it’s my GO to food. And when I can use my slow cooker to make soup then I am ecstatic. This Easy CrockPot Potato Soup combines my love of the slow cooker with my penchant for soups so for that reason it’s a favourite of mine. Are you a potato soup fan or no? This February has presented us with a string of snowstorms and under minus 20 temperatures. That’s the kind of cold you can barely recover from. Luckily I have my secret weapon – my crockpot. I use this baby at least once a week in the winter because…
