Tweet Now that Baby H has hit seven months, I have really found some stand out organic skincare products that I like to use on him; these products are gentle enough for his dry and sensitive skin, are reasonable priced and are organic or at least omit any nasty or potentially allergenic ingredients.  I will share more thoughts on baby skincare on my new mummy / parenting blog very soon! It is called Dragon Baby in honour of the fact {Read More}

New Granny Hobby Alert: Crochet! Cute Baby! Hats!

Crochet-Bear-Hat

Tweet As if I have time for hobbies; what with looking after Baby H, an army of kitties, work, household chores – who has time to do ‘other stuff’?! But sometimes that other stuff, even if it’s just for 15 minutes a day (in my case!) is a really nice way to relax a little. So my new hobby is – Crochet. I squarely blame this new hobby on Bubblegarm who makes really beautiful blankets, hats and more!  Now I {Read More}

Let me have a geek moment: Moleskine release The Hobbit notebooks!

Hobbit-notebook.jpg

Tweet I am a notebook ADDICT to the point that we are presently (very slowly) having a clear out and I have around 3 crates of notebooks; unused, half used, randomly used. It’s a terrible situation but I have to confess; I just love a nice notebook. Moleskine limited editions have been around for a while now, I always get a new pocket sized one every time a new design comes out (last one I got was the Cassette).  I {Read More}

Nail-Paints.jpg

Tweet A dear reader, Ines, emailed me to ask what cosmetic brands she should look out for whilst she was visiting the UK (London). Although I am not a Londoner, I managed to come up with a few suggestions…I am a encourager, after all!  If anyone else can think of places she could look for British brands or hard to find ranges, do leave a comment!  1. Barry M Although I don’t really use Barry M much, I appreciate how {Read More}

Jill-Stuart-Whisper-Back-Lipstick-.jpg

Tweet Part of Jill Stuarts Autumn release, Romantic Smoke, were 5 new lipstick colours, two of which I purchased! I do like a luxurious lipstick and Jill Stuart’s are definitely that (in price, anyway!).  The packaging is this super cute! I got two of the shades, Whisper Back which is a nude pink and 21 which is called Lipstick Stain, a glossy red.   Both of these lipsticks feel quite substantial in the had – they’re cased in chunky plastic {Read More}

2012, A Year in Cat Pics

Tweet At the end of 2011, me and Mr C sat on my Nan’s sofa watching Big Ben chime in a New Year, as we have done for the last few years, wondering what 2012 would have in store for us.  Some years seem to pass so quickly, and it feels like nothing much has changed, or sometimes a few big events during the year, like a death in the family, numbs you for some time after.  But you see {Read More}

Lakeland-Ceramic-Chef_s-Knife-in-knives-at-the-home-of-creative-kitchenware-Lakeland.jpg

Tweet It’s 7am and I have a spare moment ladies, so is it too soon to talk about Christmas?! Nah! I don’t know about everyone else but there isn’t anything overwhelming I want…there never really is, so it’s hard thinking of bits and pieces sometimes for people (apparently I am ‘impossible’ to buy for as I tend to just get what I want!).  Having said that I have been perusing the net and come up with some random things that {Read More}

A story about some stupid eBay retailer called Buy For Less Online – A Review

cat.jpg

Tweet Girls, it’s been a while since I’ve done a screw you post so here it is, completely unrelated to beauty but there you go. I purchased a toy (chocolate lolly maker) from these idiots called Buy For Less Online (catchy name) on eBay for my little cousin’s Birthday.  I won the item early and made sure there was a few days for the item to arrive in time for her party.   A few days later it arrived…well, something {Read More}
