    10 Things I Love About My Cat

    October 4, 2015 /

    Today is apparently “World Animal Day” I know, I know, it’s a different celebration almost daily now but it’s been a while since I talked about just how much I love my pet cat, Elsa Arya. I think being away from her for almost 2 weeks really made me realise just how big a part of my life she is. And all my family should be thankful she was here because it gave me a reason to come home. We’ve had Elsa a year next month. She’s a pure bred blue point ragdoll and I just really love her. So today I’m sharing 10 things about her that I love,…

    Things I’ve Given Up to Fund my Disney Holiday Addiction

    October 3, 2015 /

    So, we all have addictions. Hobbies we have to fund, or collections we like to add to. For myself (and probably Little Miss) visiting Disney is an addiction for us. I don’t think it would have been this bad if it wasn’t for the fact we have friends out there, it makes it feel like we’re going home to family. I have visited New York, Paris, even Niagara Falls and although I have always enjoyed being there, even felt like I could live there.. I haven’t broke my heart to leave as I do when I leave Disney. It’s a very expensive habit though. Any long haul flight isn’t going…

    Interior Design Content // How I Decorated My Daughter’s Room For Maximum Sleep

    October 1, 2015 /

    Like every mother, I only want the best for my daughter. Also like every mum, I also want her to go to bed and sleep through until the morning! I cherish every moment with her, but I need some alone time to de-stress. The only time I get that is when she is in bed. However, I recently came across something that made me think. Apparently, the way you decorate your room can affect your sleep patterns, especially small children. Fearing that my nights would be dominated by trying to get her back to bed for the night, I took it seriously. So seriously that I redecorated! Here’s what I…

    Spanish Street Food Recipes

    September 20, 2015 /

    Did you know that a quarter of people book their holiday based on the food available? I can quite believe it because I have to be honest and say I’m one of those people. One of the reasons I do love to frequent the US so often is because I love what they have available. Okay, so in the long run it may kill me faster as food Stateside is renowned for being a lot more unhealthy than what we have over but, who cares? It tastes so good! I also love visiting France for all the bakery and patisserie, and I adore the Mediterranean fare of Greece. I am…

    Happy 3rd Birthday Cocktails in Teacups!

    September 18, 2015 /

    Today is my 3rd blog-versary, or blogging birthday, whichever one you prefer. Three years ago today I sat down and started this blog. I can’t believe I have kept at it for so long to be honest. It’s gone from a creative outlet when I felt alone and isolated after my break up to being my lively hood which was something I never expected for a second! I have had some fantastic chances to write for some big names because of it, and it by being a self employed freelance writer I’m able to be flexible when it comes to my daughter, which was something I wanted more than anything.…

    Walt Disney World April 2015, Day 10 – Magic Kingdom

    September 17, 2015 /

    Well this post is going live as we’re on our way to the airport hotel. How exciting?! I cannot believe it’s 5 & a half months since we last did this, I also can’t believe it’s taken me 5 months to get my full diary up on the blog! But here we are, the last day! On our last day we were supposed to catch the Disney Magical Express to the airport at 2:30 meaning we’d have to leave the park just after 1pm. I knew I’d feel sad missing Festival of Fantasy so our dear friend Mellie took us to the airport just after 4pm, giving us 3 whole…
