Sharing our passions
It might well be the summer but it certainly hasn’t been feeling it lately with all the rain we’ve been getting! I love a giveaway and by entering, you could be in with a chance of winning this gorgeous cosy night in hamper from Marks & Spencer. It contains some really lovely things, for example, …
Today marks the start of Plastic Free July 2021. I thought I’d talk to you about how to have a plastic-free period. Flying the red flag, shark week, surfing the crimson wave, arts and crafts week at panty club. However you want to put it, having a period can be messy and, if you’re not …
I want to talk to you about my passion, green beauty and makeup. I thought I’d take a photo of what’s in my makeup bag and talk you through it. However, I wasn’t expecting just how many products were in my makeup bag so instead, I’m going to tell you my top five things for …

My quest for sleep has often been erratic. I’ve spent several years of my life being an insomniac and then my daughter developed this habit of not sleeping so I feel like this household is a bit of an authority on getting a good night’s sleep. Your Bedroom & Bed Personally, I always like …
The Backstory I’ve been a fan of green beauty for the last six years and I’ll tell you why. It all started when my daughter was eight, we were getting dressed after a shower and she asked to use my deodorant after watching me spraying mine on. I was mortified and said no. I didn’t …
I’ve always enjoyed cycling. Ever since I was knee-high to a grasshopper. I remember my first blue bike from when I was about five-years-old and flying around the area I lived on it. I do not like walking. It’s far too slow. Running has also been something I’ve enjoyed in the past, but which is …
We love an occasion to BBQ here in the UK. In our household, the first sign of good weather and we’re in the garden, cooking away alfresco! It’s a great way to combine casual dining and great weather. During this lockdown, we’ve probably had more dinners in the garden than in the house. You just …
