Englishmum.com occasionally runs honest reviews (if I don’t like it, I’ll say so!), competitions, advertisements and other sponsored pieces. If you’d like to discuss anything of this nature, please get in touch via the contact form.
Here’s what everyone else thinks:
English Mum won the Brilliance in Blogging Awards in the ’Making a Difference’ category and was a finalist in the ‘Outstanding in their Field’ category.
The organisers at British Mummy Bloggers said:
These finalists demonstrate a wide range of qualities: they might be adopting new technologies, video blogg
ing, taking active part in wider blogging discussions or making their blogs showcases for beautiful design and interesting photographs. They are each doing something a little bit differently, making their blogs a success in their own way. For that, we salute them.

I am delighted to have been involved in the recipe development for Vanessa Kimbell’s new book:
