Brilliant Idea!  |
|
Most girls dont consider what our Mums are thinking or feeling in the run up to her little girls big day - this deals with all the issues concerned, from encouraging her to not try to take over the whole day (seemingly a common complaint of brides to be!) to when she should show some interest, and what her traditional roles and responsibilities are. It also gives helpful links to the relevant areas of their website to encourage them to look there. The beauty of this book is, it is very diplomatic!

Brides, buy this for your Mums and Mum-in-Law to be!  |
|
This little book (it would fit into your handbag) blends the traditional with the modern to provide all Mums of Brides (and Im sure the Grooms Mum would love it too) with a virtually foolproof guide to getting through from the engagement to the wedding without the family falling out over the arrangements!
It gives helpful advice for when to gently intervene to prevent mishaps occurring, also when to be tactful and keep what you really think to yourself.
As usual with the books that Confetti publish (and in keeping with the whole ethos of their website) this book has been written by people who have been there, done that, got the tshirt - it is also written in a very readable style.
You can either read this book from cover to cover, or keep dipping in and out of it as you need to.

Carole Vordrmans 14 day summer detox |
|
I have read this book and embarked on the detox programme. I have never dieted before and was curious after talking to friends and patients about this book (I am a GP). The diet seems to be well balanced with a lot of care taken on nutritional values. I was impressed by the nutritional information. The recipes were extremely simple to make and were delicious. This is a real bonus especially if you are a busy working mother like me. Giving up caffeine was very difficult and the headaches were bad. The alcohol was much easier. I have given up the glass of wine as you get home from work habit which I feel fantastic about. I feel calmer, happier and healthier. I did not do it to lose weight as I do not have a weight problem, but did it to get my habits back on a healthy track. I knew them in principle but never actually carried them out. This book literally takes you by the hand and shows you the way. The book gave me so many new ideas. My family has benefitted too, and even my husband became interested. I would recommend this book as it is based on good scientific principles and is safe and sensible, plus it works! Fantastic. cant wait for the new recipe book in the autumn!
