Breaking Bad has only two episodes to go. How will we cope without it? For the last two episodes I'm making blue slush puppies in honour of our favourite meth cooking anti-hero, Walter White.
The role is played by Bryan Cranston, who revealed he has had his own Breaking Bad tattoo inked on the inside of his finger.

And to finish, here is some Breaking Bad flash work.
A striking difference in what was considered the peak of beauty from early 1920s to now.

If you want your children running to get into the bath instead of grumbling about having to get a wash, then the range of Kids Stuff Crazy Soap is for you.

My husband has a Man Cave, does your's? His current Man Cave is a little box room just off our living room at the back of the house. In there he keeps all his band stuff, guitars, amps, pedals, dozens of CDs catalogued on shelves, and a whole diorama of 1970s' Star Wars figures. It's where he goes to write music, or just have some man 'me time'.
When we move house soon, he will have a whole double shed at the bottom of the garden, wired with electric. A palace of a Man Cave. So when Treat Republic offered me the chance to review their personalisation service, and I saw the Man Cave wooden hanger, it was a must get.
For £14.99 you can personalise the sign with a name, and hobbies.
There is a wealth of high quality personalised gifts to choose from for everyone in the family.
I also picked up a little something for myself on Treat Republic. This iPhone Duo Lens is a simple attachment that gives your iPhone photos either a close up macro option, or a wide angle, fish-eye effect look. Great fun for videos too.
This is my inflatable tiger head from the eclectic gift webstore Find Me a Gift. Do you like him? There are lots of cool inflatables on their site that could make fun Christmas gifts.
£19.99
£134.99
£4.99
£8.99
Another unusual product that would make a nice stocking filler are these Shwings Shoe Wings. Available in a variety of metallic colours, they are super cool for trainers, but also can make a pair of heels into something Superwoman would wear on a night off. £9.99 for a pair of wings.
School is back & it's getting cold & damp out there. They say prevention is better than cure, so here are two fun products to hopefully help reduce the chance of sniffles and days off from education (or work!).
Disney Gummies are chewy vitamin sweets. Available in Mickey Mouse, Disney Princess or Car shaped gums, they have omega 3 and vitamins A, B, C & D. The bottle of 60 pieces is available in Boots or Amazon.co.uk and is priced around £8.99 My son thinks they are yummy, which makes me glad for the safety cap that only allows me to open the top. Another plus point is the Gummies are suitable as a multi-vitamin for everyone over the age of 3. So instead of a shelf of various different vitamins for mum, dad & kids, you can replace them all with this one-fits-all supplement. We love them.
The second new product is the Nasal Guard Cold & Flu Block gel. There is a wealth of information on their website, but the crux is the gel is applied to the nose and upper lip area and helps reduce the chance of you getting sick. I tried it out, but still caught my husband's cold, although sleeping beside someone sick is always going to be high risk. The product costs £11.99 from Boots, maybe worth a try if your child tends to pick up every little cough & runny nose that goes round their class.
DC Superfriends Magazine hits the shelves on Thursday 19th September, and is a cool introduction for your little ones to life-long superhero pals like Batman, Superman and The Flash.
Little boys and girls will love the bright colours, fun makes and stories, not to mention the free toy with each edition. This month's freebie is a set of pretend walkie talkies with swappable face plates.
You'll find DC Supermarkets in most supermarkets, or for a decent discount you can subscribe via the website.
There are dozens of kids' cereals these days, and there seems to be a new one every week. Unlike when we were kids and you had Frosties, Rice Krispies, or Cocopops and that was it. The choice is great, but one thing I miss is the beloved free plastic toy that cereal used to come with, that you could fight with your siblings over. I don't know why that stopped. Maybe too many children were eating them by accident.
The new BEAR Alphabites cereal may not have a toy, but it will appeal to the little collector in your family. Each packet has a bright & colourful fact file on the back, one for each letter of the alphabet. Potentially they could be cut out and framed for a bedroom wall, or alternatively, just studied between munches in the morning.
BEAR are a familiar and trusted brand for healthy kids' snacks. Their new breakfast cereal is an equally healthy choice. No salt and sugar, the sweetness comes from coconut nectar (which doesn't taste like coconuts). You can choose from multigrain or cocoa multigrain, and as you would expect from Alphabites, they are shaped like letters. It was a big thumbs up from my son.
thank you, BEAR
