Once a year, I do something that makes my inner teenager do a little happy dance. I surprise my best friend from childhood, Donatella, who now lives in Rome, because apparently some people need sun and pasta to survive – with gig tickets. She books her flight and together we relive the music that soundtracked our awkward teenage years, our first crushes, and our terrible haircuts.
We’ve…

Before the movie began, children were treated to a fun-filled pre-show party with games, activities and gifts, creating a brilliant atmosphere and plenty of excitement…
London Mums Magazine had the privilege of attending the preview of Wild Foxes, a French film with English subtitles. I took three young teenagers along with me, and every single one of us connected with the movie – each in our own way. Here’s what we thought.
Wild Foxes effectively portrays how a trauma?riddled young man in a high?stakes sporting environment can quickly lose both a…
Everybody loves pizza. That’s just a fact. And when most people think of pizza, they think of the classic Neapolitan version: soft, puffy, leopard-spotted crust with a slightly charred, chewy edge. It arrives as a full 12-inch circle, often bigger than the plate, and you fold it like a handkerchief to stop the toppings from sliding off into your lap. It’s glorious. It’s famous. It’s been…

Finally, I managed to see Michael – the long-awaited music biopic about the one and only King of Pop. And let me tell you, London Mums, it was worth every single minute of the wait.
Anything Michael Jackson excites me. His music was the soundtrack of my childhood, my teenage years, and honestly, still pops up on every cleaning-the-house playlist I make. But this film?
Happy national herb day! There’s no better date than Saturday, 2 May, 2026 – the first Saturday of May, and officially national herb day – to enjoy a book that celebrates the very green, growing things that heal, flavour, and enchant our lives. And what a glorious invitation to the party Adele Nozedar has written. Foraging for Healing Herbs is not a dry botanical directory. It’s a ramble…
On 26 April 2026, a small army of chefs, volunteers, and passionate food lovers gathered at Chelsea Old Town Hall with one goal: to break the Guinness World Record for the longest tiramisù in history. And they succeeded – beyond anyone’s wildest dreams.
As Editor of London Mums Magazine, proud official media partner to this initiative, I was there not just to report but to take part. I had…
I went to see Heartsink – a new play by a former GP, no less – and came out feeling like I’d been poked in the ribs and punched in the gut. In a good way. Mostly.
The setup is simple: four actors, two doctors (one old, one young), one patient, one hospital secretary. The set? Minimalist. Same desk, same chairs, just spinning round to remind you that you’re still in a doctor’s surgery.
You don’t get to sit down with the world’s most celebrated pastry chef every day. Iginio Massari – undisputed master, crowned best pâtissier in the world in 2017, and again last year in Paris – says with ironic modesty: «We can say that’s how it is.» But behind the legend lurks a man who, at four years old, fell into a bowl of cream – and never really got out. A proper Obelix, but…
