I've met more bloggers in the last two weeks than you can shake a stick at, or shake a packet of low fat snacks at!
Today I took Presely and Cash to a particularly soggy Manchester to meet even more lovely bloggers, courtesy of Warbutons Snacks and Clarion Communications.
We met at the Couture Cafe in Manchester Museum. The organisers had thoughtfully provided crayons for the little ones and pictures to colour in. There was coffee, of course - what do you expect at a coffee morning?! There was also a gorgeous fruit platter and we did sample some of it, but the big draw for my boys were the plates of ChippidyDooDaas and wholegrain SnackaDoodles on every table.
Hats off to my children, they managed to consume their own body weight in snacks. I wasn't far behind them. Seriously, these new crisps - especially the ChippidyDooDaas, made from pitta bread - are delicious.
My boys were well behaved, but it is tricky to chat when you're somewhere new and making sure they're both okay. I didn't even get to speak to some bloggers, for this I apologise.
If we did (or didn't) speak please say hi in the comments and we should try to organise another event in the North West.
Thank you to Warburtons for buying the boys some toys from the Museum and for my bag of goodies.
Oh and ChippidyDooDaa is a brilliant name for a snack!
