#154 Granny Sally’s Soap Kitchen Products Review
Tonight i’m reviewing some products by what I can only describe as one of my favourite beauty brand finds of 2013. I had heard a few people rave about Granny Sally’s Soap Kitchen so when I received my Birmingham Blogger Meet goodie bag I was over joyed to find some samples in here and I gave using them priority status simply after the first sniff. I had taken my own photos of the products but in typical Amy style, I’ve miss placed them. I headed straight to twitter to have a bit of a moan about it as I really wanted to review them and Granny Sally’s were kind enough…

#153 Recipe No.11 Potato Salad with Bacon
So my bestie Bee and our friend group have a theory, actually it’s become more of a life philosophy, that everything is better with bacon. I decided to test this theory by taking one of my summer favourites (I can eat this by the bowl full with a glass of white wine on the side) and topping it with some smoked bacon. Like with the salad I posted last month, I don’t really claim this to be a recipe that takes great skill, but damn it is good. If I make potato salad it’s usually to go with barbeque food or even simply just chicken skewers done on the grill,…

Purity Organic Skincare Products Review
I’m really struggling with blogging at the moment due to tiredness. Having my daughter in my bedroom while we wait for a house when she’s sixteen months old is not something I’d wish on my worst enemy. She wakes 5-6 times a night, sometimes every hour to have a “chat” with me and if I ignore her she screams the place down or throws things at me. I’ve tried sleeping on the couch but it gave me a bad back. It’s really affecting my day to day life and more worryingly I have exams coming up. Anyway, that’s why my blog might appear lack lust at the moment. I tried…

#151 #YOLO Upon a Time
Last week was my best friend Bee‘s birthday. It’s become some what of a tradition to celebrate a birthday by having a murder mystery party, the last one was back in March for Bee’s partner Chris, it was an Alice in Wonderland themed one which I enjoyed so much and even blogged about it here. This time around the theme was fairytales, something that is deeply rooted in our friendship so I have been quiet possibly excited about this as much as the birthday girl. Something that was different this time though was the fact that Bee & her brother Chris (we know a LOT of Chris’) took it…

#144 Where Amy Ate – Hard Rock Cafe, Edinburgh
Last week I was invited by the lovely Lesley up to the Hard Rock Cafe in Edinburgh for a bite to eat. So I caught a train up today as my mum is on holiday to babysit. This is probably one of my most exciting invites I’ve had as a blogger. I have been a long time fan of the Hard Rock Cafe thanks to my dad. I’ve been lucky enough to visit not only the Edinburgh restaurant, but also the one in London, New York and Orlando. My dad is a massive rock music fan so he’s been taking us to eat here since my sister and I were…
