Okay trialling a new Friday tradition here for a bit, which is Friday Favs. Feel free to reply with anything you’ve particularly been enjoying this week, and let’s end the week on a note of gratitude and joy 🙂 <3 Shareable things I have greatly enjoyed/appreciated this week: Lazy Housewife beans. Truly living up to […]
So, my mum is running a high tea soon and needed suggestions for pass-the-parcel gifts (because OBVIOUSLY this is a thing you do at high tea!), and being the practical sort of person that I am (!) I suggested…. tea? 😀 There’s a local place that sells individual sachets for $1.50, which is a great

Trying something new this week… Was chatting to friends at work last week about a new way I’m working on of organising my recipes and nightly cooking so that I don’t have to THINK about what to have for dinner, and what to shop for each week, and so on and so forth. We spiralled

Short version: lots of publishing, no writing. I’ve been eating too much sugar lately, which negatively impacts my sleep, and I really need to kick that to the curb again. However, that involves willpower which involved energy which I’m lacking because of poor sleep, and you see how things are 😀 Also, discovered the hard
Hey guys, A quick health update. June was pretty gross, and the depression, anxiety and sleeplessness/exhaustion were making everything pretty hard.

I have nothing especially to say rn, but I also don’t have a great excuse to NOT be here, so here I am, being here, and hereing. Woo! Anyway, writing is progress, if not apace then at least at a better pace than during term time. I have about 37k done now in How Not
Had to go out for dinner on Sat night to a wood-fired pizza restaurant. Dinner was delicious, as expected – and the food reactions were awful, as expected. *sigh*. It didn’t help that I made the mistake of eating a GIANT BOWL of rocket salad before realising that oops, yeah, rocket =/= lettuce and while
