For the long time now, Steve and I have talked about getting a coffee machine but truth be told, until a couple of weeks ago it was STILL all talk. That was up until the lovely people at NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto and TerraCycle sent me one. Seriously, there was all sorts of happy dancing happening at our house. To be honest, as much as I had wanted one of these I was a bit daunted by how complicated they appeared (!!!), huh, what a joke. They are so easy in fact I am sure Sebastian … [Read more...]
How To Make An Anti Gravity Cake
A couple of weeks ago my hubby Steve celebrated his birthday. It wasn't just any birthday it was the big 4-0! And like any good birthday celebrations, there was cake.

So thanks to Steve, I now had the perfect excuse occasion for which … [Read more...]
‘Boody’ Organic Bamboo Eco Wear || Anything BUT Basic

I was luckily enough to be sent a V-Neck T-Shirt and a pair of their Sports Ankle Socks; both of … [Read more...]
Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
Something Sebastian and I love doing together is jumping in the kitchen and doing a spot of baking. I will admit, I am not 100% sure if he loves the baking side of it or the licking the bowl / beaters afterwards?!? All the same I love the time we spend together and there is always hope that this will turn into a love of baking. Another thing I love is Summer and the warmer weather it brings with it. What I'm not that keen about is the fact fruit goes off so quickly … [Read more...]
Revitalash Eyelash Conditioner
A couple of weeks ago I was sent some Revitalash® Eyelash Conditioner to try and to be honest I couldn't be more excited. So for the next six weeks, well four and a half weeks actually (I've been using it already).. I will be applying one lash stroke each day in a bid to have longer, healthier and more luxurious lashes. So what are my thoughts thus far...? I like the ease and simplicity - just one sweep and your done. I like that it is - … [Read more...]
