Java Whiskers Cat Cafe
A new find for us and the perfect treat for me to celebrate my 30th birthday. Yes I am 30 and yes, I wanted to spend a quiet moment at a cat cafe with some lovely felines and sweet treats. Because I am an adult. Now I have said before that personally, if the cafe … Continue reading Java Whiskers Cat Cafe
Floof Friday
This should really be called Furious Floof Friday... I tried to take a picture of her flopped under the log hidey-hole and...well...I woke her... If I do not post at all next week, it is because Lola has taken her revenge. T xxx
Floof Friday
It is finally starting to get a little bit colder here in England and as someone who adores big fluffy jumpers and pumpkin spiced everything, I am very excited for the cosy days coming. But not as excited as Lola is.... She has truly perfected the cosiest corner of the house. Which apparently does include … Continue reading Floof Friday
Del Monte raspberry smoothie ice lolly
This summer in England was borderline unbearable, and I am sad to say that we discovered ice lollies far too late into summer. I do think though that we hit the jackpot with the ice lolly selection. It is now starting to cool down here in England and the temperature is starting to inch back … Continue reading Del Monte raspberry smoothie ice lolly
Krispee Kreme strawberry glazed ring
A new day and a new donut! Now I am saying that this is all for wedding research (donut towers are far more exciting than your standard wedding cake) so really it would be silly of me not to try a new offering. Now Krispee Kreme did bring out quite a big range of new … Continue reading Krispee Kreme strawberry glazed ring
Snuggle Sunday
Following on from my previous post on how to keep your pets cool in the hot weather, here is an example of Lola enjoying the coolness of a frozen floor tile. She took a while to get used to it, but has now worked out why we kept putting these near her. Think she's a … Continue reading Snuggle Sunday
Barry M Velvet matt nail polish: Silent cove blue
There is just something about having my nails painted that makes me feel like a Real Woman. I just feel a bit more put together and polished...no pun intended. Since going vegan though my nails grow so quickly that I find getting my nails done professionally is a waste, because within two weeks my nails … Continue reading Barry M Velvet matt nail polish: Silent cove blue
How to keep pets cool in the heat
We are currently going through a heatwave here in England, with temperatures this week hitting 40 degrees Celsius. This is largely unheard of in the UK and we are definitely not set up for this type of heat: I kid you not when I say that roads melt and train tracks bow. Aircon is also … Continue reading How to keep pets cool in the heat
Umberto Giannini curl whip mousse
I think I am finally getting the hang of the Curly Girl method of looking after my curls, and while I am now here near perfect my curls are definitely so much more manageable than they were before. The only issue I have with it is finding a styling product that holds my curls in … Continue reading Umberto Giannini curl whip mousse
