Just a quick one today. Mr BoyChild had a Harry Potter day at school holiday care last week, which we were both super excited about (he got to make a wand and have broom races and everything). I was even *more* excited when the Gryffindor tie I’d ordered for him a month ago arrived *exactly* […]

You guys are incredible. I was so nervous about giving up a week of my precious holidays to go do more teaching, but wow. You’ve all blown me away with your passion and talent and commitment, and you have just been a dream. I’ve had an absolute blast this week, and I really hope you

Hey guys, A quick health update. June was pretty gross, and the depression, anxiety and sleeplessness/exhaustion were making everything pretty hard. However, the good news is, I had the gastroscopy Tuesday last week, and was able to immediately go gluten-free again after that. It’s been what, nine, ten days? and things are starting to finally

Ermagersh you guys. A friend sent me this the other week and I was just like. 7 seconds in, I was sold, and it only got better from there. This plus Malinda’s Fearless from the other week are my new “play them till the record breaks” song for the rest of the term. Yay! Aladdin

This month’s Inklet (#11, whoa we are like into double digits) is a twisty little epilogue to the Little Red Riding Hood fairytale. There’s a dark twist, but it has a happy ending <3 It is, however, really, really short – it’ll be the shortest Inklet ever, because moving into 2020 (the 2019 line-up is

Quick lil unicorn cake this time for the family birthday girl, who has been unicorn-obsessed since before they were popular <3 (Clearly not influenced by her mother, ah ha ha no way.) I’ve been sick all week with a horrible cough on top of the whole gluten-induced misery, so I literally only baked the cake

So, I’ve been exploring Malinda’s two YouTube channels after finding those fab videos from last week and the week before, and a few days ago, I came across this: Malinda challenged herself to not look at herself/use a mirror for 5 days. The results are… Look, you just really need to watch the video, okay?

Because my mum was horrified that my shower could have been *that* *dirty*, I felt like I should clarify… This was AFTER cleaning the shower. The whole thing was gloriously clean and probably still smelling vaguely of chemicals, or I (hopefully needless to say) wouldn’t have been sitting on the floor. I’m not usually in
