January Reads
As I’ve resolved to read more books this year I thought i’d blog about what I read monthly rather than doing a review of each. I always struggle with book reviews because I don’t like giving too much away. I’m more of a “read it!” or “don’t read it!” kind of person. This way I can simply write a few sentences about what I think about each book then tell you all whether I recommend it or not. I can also keep track on my blog what I’ve read as well as on Goodreads. I managed three books this month and I’m half way through my forth. I would have…

Recipe No. 21 Chicken Wrapped in Bacon with Blue Cheese Sauce
I’m really struggling with tiredness at the moment, hence not blogging last night. I mainly napped and took a bath and I still didn’t get much sleep despite trying to relax all evening. So frustrating! So today is seemingly Blue Monday, the most depressing day of the year, to be honest I thought after the morning I had I was in for a bad day (woke up to no electricity then the wheel broke on the pushchair) but after a chilled out afternoon, a fun bath time for Little Miss then my mum coming for dinner, it actually hasn’t been too bad. My mum stayed for a good two hours…

Keeping Red Hair Red
ALL LINKS REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER AVAILABLE So today I’ve decided to share with you what products I use on my (dyed) red hair. My hair has been this colour for five months now and I can’t see me being any colour other for a good while. Prior to going red, I had the ombre look, and although I did love it, the two boxes of hair dye a month was pretty expensive (two as I have to dye my hair brown first due to being naturally blonde). The hair dye I used I had bought back in May when I dyed my hair really dark brown for the…

Outfit of the Day – I’m Not a Princess, This Ain’t a Fairy Tale
Last night I surpassed 100,000 views on my blog. What an achievement! I couldn’t believe it when I logged in this morning to start this post and I was over the 100,000 views mark. I did actually “woop” with joy. It’s so nice to know people read my blog even if it’s not really all about that. My blog is what keeps me going on those bad days (well aside from Little Miss) I’m always looking for something to write about. It would be lovely to reach the 200,000 mark by next January! Here’s to hoping! As I mentioned last week, I’m trying to post more outfits. I do like…

The Wanderlust Tag
I really enjoyed this tag that Leona posted on her blog Oh! Leona this afternoon and I decided since 2014 is hopefully going to be my Year of Wanderlust (see my Hello 2014 post) it seemed like a nice idea to share it. Please let me know if you take part as it would be nice to link you up. All photos in this post are my own. Enjoy! Central Park, Manhattan 2009 1. Your most treasured passport stamp? I currently have none as I only got a new passport last year and the only place I visited was France. These days you don’t get a stamp when visiting the…
