My 10 Favourite Plotlines on Once Upon a Time
Sunday 14th May saw the season 6 finale of Once Upon a Time, a TV show I’ve mentioned time and time again on the blog, for a long time it was my favourite TV show. It was exactly what I wanted, a show that made me believe fairy tales, something I love so much, were real. It was a show that preached hope and that good would always triumph over evil. It first aired when I was living the darkest time of my life. While I was locked in an abusive relationship with what felt like, at the time, a great evil. I needed hope. I needed to know that…

Generation Earn to Enjoy*
Without a doubt I’m part of the “YOLO” generation. The You Only Live Once mentality is applied to all aspects of our lives, but mostly to the money we earn. Although I am capable of saving, when I have a holiday booked and I need to pay it off, I choose to invest what I earn in a life of adventures and magic for Little Miss and I, because after all, you do only live once and I’d rather make this life the best possible since it is just the two of us. I’m not the only one. You see more and more people spending their money on holidays, flash…

Who Killed Jason Blossom in Riverdale? – My Favourite Theories
In the past I’ve often written about TV shows I’m watching or my favourite moments in a series, but this is my first time commenting on a plot line in a TV show. However, both my sister and I are completely obsessed with Riverdale at the moment particularly with Jughead and Betty and especially with the through line of the entire season of who killed Jason Blossom. If you haven’t started watching the Netflix original series yet, why the hell not? It’s based on the Archie comic books, something I adored growing up (I loved Betty, I was always a Betty, but back then I was all about Betty and…

Little Miss Cosplays – Belle
Growing up we really didn’t have much money. For a long time my mum didn’t work, then when she started to work she went to retrain as a teacher. We didn’t have a car for a long time although both my parents could drive. Until I was 9 I had never been abroad and even our first trip (which was to Walt Disney World) was because my dad had been made redundant. I wouldn’t say we ever went without though. Any spare money my parents had, they spent on my sister and I, and when I became a mother I vowed I would do the same. But as a single…

Why Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Rekindled my Love for the Wizarding World
Imagine, a little 10 year old Hermione Granger type, stepping into her school library looking for a way to avoid going outside during break time. She goes to the new releases and picks up a shiny new copy of a book that would probably change her life; Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. She sits down and starts to read. She was transported into this new world, a world of magic (and lets face it, as a kid already into Disney she was open to this sort of thing) and she was lost. Obviously it was me. I anticipated every book release, the later ones I was there to pick…

Disney Confessions Part 2
Over a year ago now there was a Disney Confessions type post making the rounds and I took part in it sharing my deepest darkest opinions on all things Disney and today I’m back with more. I had always intended on doing a second (and maybe third) confessions post and even marked my original one as part one and here I am! I’m fairly sure some of these are “unpopular opinions” but I kinda don’t care, these are my own personal opinions but I’d love to hear yours! Emma Watson really wasn’t Belle for me For me, she was the weakest part of the whole movie. In acting, singing and…
