#FriendshipGrows, A Celebration of Friendship with Chisholm Hunter
Last week I was sent this wonderful box of goodies by Chisholm Hunter as part of their #FriendshipsGrows campaign.

I know as women get older they’re supposed to turn into their mothers, I already notice my own mum turning into my Nanny, in fact all her sisters are turning into my Nanny.. but these things aren’t all exactly things that I know my mum does, they’re just trains of thought and behavioral habits that remind me that I’m now entering my late twenties and my teenage years are long behind me.
