    Packing for Paris – My Wash Bag & Make Up Bag

    October 30, 2013 /

    Hello again! Yes I’m still in Paris, this is another scheduled special and once again it’s what’s in another of my bags! This time it’s my wash bag AND my make up bag. You can tell i’m really scraping the barrel here but I wanted to do a different sort of set of posts that aren’t reviews or recipes. I did decide to combine these two into one post as this is my third what i’m taking with me post and I’m worried you’ll all be bored now. You do have all my “what I did in Paris” posts to look forward to, I can feel already there is probably…

    Guest Post // My Changing Season Essentials

    October 29, 2013 /

    While in Paris i’ve asked a couple of girls to guest blog for me as I no way had enough time to schedule enough posts myself with Little Miss on the go! First up we have the lovely Tasha, she is going to give us a post on her Changing Season Essentials. ——————————— As we get closer and closer towards Winter, there’s a handful of products I find myself reaching for on a daily basis. I love Autumn; wrapping up warm in numerous layers and watching all the leaves changing colour and falling from the trees, it’s a beautiful season and if I’m honest I feel more comfortable dressing for…

    A Chillaxed Night In with Goodfellas *

    October 27, 2013 /

    For me, Friday was incredibly stressful. Despite not leaving the country until Monday, Friday had that day before going away feel. I had a lot of work stuff to do, as well as my own blog maintenance, packing, cleaning as well as entertaining Little Miss. I had set aside the whole day up until Little Miss’ bedtime at 7pm for all of that stuff. I’ve already been struggling to sleep so I didn’t want to be rushing around right up to my bedtime because I knew that my brain would still be making lists until past 4am, which would suck when I had to be up the house by 9am.…

    The Body Shop Coconut Body Scrub Review

    October 24, 2013 /

    A few weeks ago I was asked if I’d like to review a product from The Body Shop. I jumped at the chance as I’m sure by now you know I’m a fan of their products, in particular the body butters (but then again, who isn’t?!) The product I received was the Coconut Body Scrub* which I was pretty pleased with. I’ve only just started to use coconut products again after years of abstinence due to drinking too much Malibu in my teens, the smell made me queasy. That was until I started to use the moisturising Herbal Essence shampoo and conditioner, the one in the blue bottle. It smells…

    Recipe No.18 Homemade Katsu Chicken

    October 22, 2013 /

    The day I go for my big grocery shop always guarantees that I’ll feel more like experimenting in the kitchen. Last night of course was no exception. This is mainly because I make a list of new recipes to try and what ingredients I need to buy to make them. Topping my list for meals to make was Chicken Katsu. It’s been a while since I had my first and only chicken Katsu at Wagamamas back in May and there is the odd day when I crave it but with the nearest restaurant being well over an hour a way it’s not somewhere I can just pop to for lunch!…
