March Favourites 2022 | Podcasts, Perfumes, DIY and More…
“Welcome to Spring!”, she says looking at the snow falling outside her window. We love a bit of global warming to start the season. That’s a lie, we don’t love any bit of global warming. Anyway, enough of focusing on the crippling state of the world and how it consumes my every thought, and let’s…

My TBR Star Jar | rosie abigail
I’ve been wanting to do this for awhile, and it seems there’s no better time than a pandemic to get organised and crafty! (Before I begin, I mean crafty as in ‘arts and crafts’, not as in ‘going to pretend to have a limp and then steal all your money whilst you care for me’.)…
