Dianne Buswell tackles a productive summer clear-out and organizes her home, balances healthy meal prepping and snacking, and cherishes time with her son, Bowie, while preparing for an upcoming wedding.

  • Summer cleaning — Spent the morning purging cupboards, organizing items, and setting up a dedicated playroom for Bowie .
  • Healthy snacks — Prepared homemade frozen treats using:
    • A blend of yogurt, banana, and peanut butter for herself .
    • Frozen breast milk in teething rings to soothe her son .
  • Postpartum recovery — Visited a chiropractor to address back tension and used leg compression boots for muscle relief .
  • Cooking projects — Baked a unique pistachio and courgette cake with avocado-lime frosting, alongside a large batch of vegetable curry for future meals .
  • Pregnancy keepsake — Unboxed a heavy, detailed 3D statue created from a body scan taken during her final weeks of pregnancy .
  • Wedding preparation — Visited local shops to find an outfit, ultimately choosing a 60s-style dress from TK Maxx .

What motivated the couple to start using leg compression boots? What ingredients are used to create the frosting for the pistachio and courgette cake?
