A Garden Makeover - New York Mum in London
http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/style/a-garden-makeover
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. Winter here was depressing for me, not so much because of the cold, but because everything was barren and all of the bushes looked like weeds. Big, huge ugly bunches of weeds. "Why would anyone want those in their garden? I would think to myself as I did the daily walk to Little J's school. Every day I would look at the same set of "weeds," and wonder the same question. Here are just a few of the gorgeous blooms that I pass on my way to school each day now:.

http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/beauty/tried-and-true-baby-foot
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. Tried and True - Baby Foot. Warning - graphic images of my skanky feet appear in the images below. Do not continue reading unless you are prepared to be thoroughly grossed out but simultaneously and utterly amazed. And speciality: Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve. But these only do their job if I remember to use them religiously on a daily basis which, let's face it, ain't gonna happen. Then I stumbled upon this miracle in a box. Cleverly named Baby Foot.

Bovey Castle - New York Mum in London
http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/travel/bovey-castle
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. My son wants to move to Devon. Specifically, he wants to move into Bovey Castle. We traveled to Bovey Castle over the spring vacation in April and called it home for three wonderful nights. Blessed with glorious English spring weather (and I'm not saying that with an ounce of sarcasm - it really was four days of sunshine and blue skies), we had one of the best family vacations in recent memory. Wellington boots on-hand to borrow at the entrance. My favorite acti...

No Nasties - New York Mum in London
http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/food/no-nasties
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. It seems everything imaginable has been conveniently packaged into single servings these days - even sliced apples! But, as we have all no doubt read in the press lately, the more things are packaged, the less you know about what's in them. What's on those apples that prevents them from browning, anyway? Do I really want my kid eating that? There are over 100 snacks to choose from on their website. I've tried two graze subscriptions - one for myself and one for ...

http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/food/summa-time-pops
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. Seriously, with Little J now joining in on the act, that's one box per night. No way. There are so many delicious make-your-own popsicle recipes out there - you just have to Google and be on your way. Or jump down the rabbit hole that is Pinterest. A few that I've tagged to try in the coming weeks are Strawberry Lemonade Popsicles. Fresh Fruit and Yogurt Pops. And Strawberry Shortcake Greek Yogurt Pops. Hands in the air. Wave 'em like you just don't care! Bleccc...

Minx - New York Mum in London
http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/10/post/2014/03/minx.html
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. Don't even get me started. London has come a long way - ten years ago hardly anyone got their nails done here - but, let's be honest, they still have a ways to go to compare to New York. I've done a fair share of recon in North London over the past few months. It took some time, but I've found my go-to place: the Beauty Boutique. These look awesome and last forever! My next pedicure for sure! Enter your email address:. New York Mum in London 2013.

Ombre - New York Mum in London
http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/beauty/ombre
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. I'm admittedly late jumping on the ombre bandwagon. It seems every celeb from here to Timbuktu has experimented with it in one way or another - some (below) way more successfully than others:. Jared Leto and his luscious "hombre" locks. Kim Kardashian - love her or hate her, her locks always look lovely. J-Lo's ombre curls are absolute perfection. For my ombre experiment I headed to Daniel Galvin's. Chloe at Daniel Galvin. No one said being beautiful was easy.

Winter Detox - New York Mum in London
http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/1/post/2014/01/winter-detox.html
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. The holidays were great, but now it's 2014 and time for a fresh start. If you're anything like me, you're in need of a serious detox. Waaaayyyy too many mince pies! Normally, I partake in a three-day juice cleanse to reboot my brain into healthy eating habits (I did this a few months ago after realizing that one day my lunch included gummy bears and my dinner consisted solely of a Mars bar). All my NY peeps know that I am a huge fan of Blue Print Cleanse. Here a...

New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. I've Found Love in a Flat White. Guess what, coffee lovers? Remember how I blogged about. My love-hate relationship with my Nespresso machine, my adoration of all things Clooney but my distaste for his bitter coffee pods, and how I was longing for the perfect cuppa coffee each morning? That glorious day has come. Yes, that's right, I got my first delivery of CRU in the mail. Holla! Good Now here comes the awesome part. What's that you say? Pods that pack a punch...

Nailed It - New York Mum in London
http://www.newyorkmuminlondon.com/1/post/2014/03/nailed-it.html
New York Mum in London. Video of the Week. Little J turned two last week. After beginner's luck with Miss E's birthday cake, I had high hopes for Little J's cake. He is obsessed with Elmo these days, "ELMO! Being one of the few clear words he can say. I scoured Pinterest, found the perfect Elmo cake, and saved the image to my desktop. I daydreamed, perhaps a little too confidently, about ceremoniously unveiling the cake to "ooohs" and "ahhhs" and a big, loud "Elmo! Squeal from Little J. Two vanilla base ...
