Recipe No.23 Gluten Free Chocolate Brownies
I wasn’t actually going to blog tonight, or tomorrow for that matter because I have my two fav girls from university coming to stay to celebrate my birthday (part one of it anyway). They’re still half an hour away so I thought I’d quickly share this recipe with you. The reason this recipe is gluten free is because I took part in a gluten free week, following a diet put together by Ilumi to help boost energy and clear up my skin. However, there were no desserts in it, and I need my desserts so after a bit of browsing through my cookbooks I came across a Nigella recipe for…

World Book Day Tag
Today is World Book Day, for anyone who has been living under a rock. I always know World Book Day is coming up for two reasons, one that my mum gives me a pile of left over vouchers as she knows how much I love a new book, and two it’s coming up to my birthday. When I was at school I actually loved it being World Book Day on my birthday because it meant going into school dressed up and I loved nothing more than going to school dressed up. Now as an adult with a child that doesn’t yet attend school, I didn’t really observe it other than…

My Inspiring Bloggers
This weekend past I felt in a bit of a blogging slump. I didn’t have writers block, or nothing to write about, I just felt very “meh” with my blog. I wrote a whole bunch of posts and instead of feeling really organised and accomplished, I just felt a bit panicked.. I worried no one really read my blog or if they did, they found it boring and unoriginal. This feeling lasted for a good couple of days and every time I brought the page up, I just felt sad. However, due to this feeling, on Sunday I made sure I was able to take part in the #lbloggers…

Pebble Grey LED Cosmetic Mirror Review
Just a quick little review today of a lovely cosmetic mirror I was kindly sent to review. I do really appreciate when companies think my blog would be a good fit for their brand, I feel like I’ve come so far from the days when I’d struggle to have something to write because there would be so little going on in my life. Now I always feel like I have something to share with my readers whether it be a review, recipe or just a snippet from my life. Last night when I took part in the #lbloggers chat I was reminded of this. Today I’ve managed to post twice…

Outfit of the Day – Orange County Girl
As you’re aware, I’m not an Orange County girl, in fact I usually don’t like orange, but I do like terracotta or burnt orange. I’m picky like that! But anyway, I was just looking for some song lyrics with orange in when I came across this Gwen Stafani one and I just HAD to listen to her on Spotify. I love Gwen, and I love No Doubt. And so it was decided that this post would be called as such. Glamorous Lace Skater Dress (ancient), Thrifted Black 3/4 Length Sleeve Top £7.99, H&M Woodland Copse Floral Crown in Rust £15, Crown and Glory Belt (from another dress), Primark Black Tights…

February Reads
I’m quite impressed with how well I’m keeping up with this whole reading thing. Another four books read this year, that’s seven now and I’m almost finished The Great Gatsby so that’ll be eight, only two away from how many books I read in 2013. No wonder I made this unofficial resolutions to read more for 2014! The only problem is that now I feel the need to buy more books. My basket on Amazon is filled with bargain books from the marketplace (anyone else love that for cheap DVDs and books or is it just me?) My to read shelf is pretty full but every time I finish one…
