So here we all are again, staring at our four walls with nothing to do or talk about and trying not to worry too much about the state of our hospitals and how ill people are with Covid 19 right […]
Happy Valentine’s Day…. hope you all had a lovely day. I went for a lovely walk with a girlfriend and found these delicious Valentine’s cheesecakes along the way and then spent the evening with a crowd of friends dancing wildly […]
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY! I am feeling pretty pleased with myself because a HUGE bunch of red roses arrived for me today. WOOHOO! Sorry to be smug, but to be fair, I have never in my life received two dozen roses […]
It’s our last February half term ever…my youngest child is in his last year at sixth form college and once he has finished this summer, that will be it. We will no longer have to suffer the throngs of parents […]
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY to all….whether you’re loved up or not I hope you have a good day. Mine has been unusual so far, having found for the first time in a long time I had another person in bed with […]
OMG Valentine’s Day is looming and I am not happy about it. How AWFUL is all the Valentine’s stuff in the shops all pretty in pink and red? I can’t bear to look at it. This is on account of […]
I got a Valentine’s Day card actually posted through my door by a real postman!! That is top effort in this day and age I feel – from I have no idea who…… (well, maybe I have some idea, but […]
Let me tell you – there is nothing worse than having a beautiful 18 year old daughter living with you, who is also single. Imagine how much WAY MORE attention she is going to be getting on Valentine’s Day compared […]
Happy Valentine’s Day to all you gorgeous people out there. Unsurprisingly, Valentine’s Day isn’t panning out quite like I’d hoped so far. Woke at 8am (it’s half term so that’s a lie-in). Came downstairs to find I was banned from […]
As a result of my pathetic approach to Valentine's Day I have been sent two boxes of chocolates as an indulgence for "Britain's busy women". I'm afraid it wouldn't have been right to give both of them away because I had to do my quality control and approve them first.
Gorgeous packaging:- 
on the top it says
Pretty Idle.
Artisan Chocolates (serves one)
So I've done what it said on the box and tested out a few of them - look they're all sparkly! Delicious. 
I don't have time to run another competition before Valentine's Day now, so just let me know if you think you or someone you know fits the following description and maybe I'll send them to you..... Sassy and debauched: the ultimate Valentine’s Day indulgence for Britain’s busy women Need a little last minute luxury for the gorgeous, busy woman in your life this Valentine’s Day? Or celebrating solo and want to lose yourself in a universe of shamelessly selfish indulgence? New British luxury relaxation label, Pretty Idle, is here to save the day with its first blissed-out collection of artisan chocolates.
Presented in a sumptuous drawer-style box with a black velvet tab, each chocolate sparkles for attention and has been individually created by Pretty Idle’s own London-based chocolatier, Madame Coco, using her personal favourite flavour-combinations from around the globe. These chocolates are unapologetically sassy, shamelessly indulgent and deliciously immoral. A veritable treasure trove of chocolate hedonism, designed for women by women, the box contains twelve opulent treats:
Ø Pretty Idle Spice – Our secret blend of decadent spices in velvety dark chocolate
Ø Gem de la Mer – Sexy sea-salted caramel encased in shimmering milk chocolate
Ø Passion Rocks – Glitzy little squares of indulgent passion-fruit praline
Ø Boozy Floozy – Fabulously retro cognac and raisin in deep, dark chocolate
Ø Ooh La La – Sumptuous layers of Parisian praline, feuilletine and white chocolate
Ø Ruby Rouge – Raspberry ganache with a shameless pinch of saffron
Inspired by the vintage Hollywood glamour of Marilyn Monroe and Mae West, spiked with a cheeky modern twist of style, wit and an inherent understanding of what it feels like for a girl, Pretty Idle is Britain’s newest luxury relaxation label, dedicated to delivering slivers of bliss to busy women who spend their lives putting others first. Created by ultimate busy girl, Jacqueline Day, and award-winning West End performer, Frances Ruffelle, Pretty Idle is here to bring hedonism into your homes with little touches of opulence that make all the hard work worthwhile. 2012 will see the label launch its exclusive first collection of limited edition chill-out accessories such as cashmere blankets and socks and luxe aromatherapy candles and bath oils, all designed and created in the UK.

Gosh. Well that was surprising – after launching a competition related to head lice and mentioning that it wasn’t the sexiest competition I’ve ever done and that Valentine’s day was going to be a source of deep anguish for me […]
I am feeling much better (selfishly), having spoken to several of my married friends this morning. They are miserable. Husbands either away or being inattentive or grumpy or all three. Valentine’s Day only highlights one’s miseries if you are stuck […]
