Avoiding Scurvy
I have some big news for you. Today, something very exciting happened. Today, I LEFT THE HOUSE. Now, I know for most people, this won’t be a big deal. To me, however, when I’ve been cooped up since Friday, only leaving twice to go to the corner shop and buy emergency chocolate supplies, it was …
Yarn Bag Ta Dah!
I realised I said a little while ago that I should have a Ta Dah post coming up soon and then actually forgot to do it! This whole project has been a bit delayed really, as it was actually meant as a Christmas present for Heather but I only got around to making it at …
I Know, I Know…
I know, I know, I’ve been absolutely rubbish at posting regularly recently, but things have just been getting in the way! Heather and Tiny Tin Bird came to stay for just over a week and went home on Thursday, so lots of that time was taken up by showing him the garden, taking him for …
Four in One
I’ve had so many things to blog about recently, but just haven’t got around to blogging about ANY of them. So this post is a huge one to fit in four of the things that I’ve wanted to share with you over the last few days. The first topic I’d like to discuss is the …
The Best Cake In The World
Hello again, I’m so sorry for the lack of posts recently, I just honestly don’t know where the time’s been going. Actually, it may have something to do with the fact that my body seems to think it’s perfectly acceptable to sleep for at least 11 hours EVERY night when I’m at home. Seriously, every …
Mother’s Day
So, I woke up this morning and flicked about on the internet and read Heather’s mother’s day post. Then I realised that nothing I could write in my post could top that – I mean, I don’t have a cute baby to aid my message! Thankfully I was lucky enough to actually see my mum …
Outings with Tiny Tin Bird
Over the last two weeks, Heather and Tiny Tin Bird have been staying at home for a visit. I love that Heather’s determined to bring him down as much as possible so he’s comfortable there and so we all get to know him (and him us!) as he grows up. It sucks that they live …
The Morning of Two Cafes
On Thursday, I didn’t have any lectures in the morning and the roads were clear of snow, so my mum managed to come over for a visit. I met her in town and, of course, we headed straight to our favourite cafe here. This is the one where they use real chocolate in their hot …
The Best of Both Worlds
Saturday was my mum’s birthday, so naturally I decided to go home to spend the weekend with her. With my alarm set for some ungodly hour known as 7:30am, I was all ready to catch the train and have a nice time at home. Only, at 7:25, I got a text from my mum saying, …
Gods and Warriors
Hello there, how are you all? I’m officially back into the swing of uni life, going to lectures like a pro and ignoring my alarm so I get an extra five minutes in bed. I had a bit of spare time yesterday, so while watching ‘Definitely, Maybe’ (just a generic rom-com), I decided to put …
