Thank you all so much for your responses to my last email - forwards, responses, feedback - it's all so helpful. If you haven't had a chance, take a gander of the new GRASP website, including new product shots, fresh content, and a little more insight into where GRASP started. Let me know what you think!

The shop is nearly open

THE PRODUCTS ARE COMING. On ships and planes and trucks and cranes, they're coming. Take a sneak peak at our almost-open online shop for the first clues - and some cute familiar faces! - and keep an eye out for the waitlist to be the first to get your hands on them (with a tasty discount for being an early supporter, of course!).

Getting out of a sticky situation

Please tell me I was not the only one who had to write off at least a couple of duds making pancakes yesterday!

So this morning I seasoned my pan. It seems to have worked - find out how you can do it here.

Free things to do in London with kids

It's the time of the year where you wonder if the rain will *ever* stop - I can't guarantee it will but thankfully this beautiful city offers wonderful days out for all weathers. This list of 17 things covers a range of areas, interest areas, and is very family-friendly. Most importantly, they're all FREE! Take note of places which are already offering fun Easter-related activities.

And now for something totally different...
