Our little Italian Adventure began in Verona. City of Romeo and Juliet but more importantly for me the most amazing open air opera festival. We spent two nights and had one day to explore. Verona is a beautiful old city and its lovely to just wander around taking in the architecture and surroundings. A day or two is probably enough to see everything. Our Hotel … Continue reading Romeo Take Me
After a few long and busy weeks a holiday is much needed. I’m writing this from my king sized bed in my junior suite in Bologna, sorry not sorry for that boast. If you follow me on Instagram you’ll have seen the start of our little Italian Tour in Verona, some more on that coming in the next few days. Today it’s all about the … Continue reading Pack Up Your Troubles
The past few weeks have been busy and stressful and generally rubbish. When times get tough it’s easy to let it drag your mood down, I’ve been fighting against that though. Instead just focusing on the simple things that make me smile. Some pretty yellow flowers. Spending time with my wonderful sister, who took these photos. My beautiful boy Seb and his little waggy tail … Continue reading I’ll Cherish the Simple Things
I’m sure everyone knows what clean eating is by now but incase you don’t it’s basically eating unprocessed foods. It’s not as hard as you might think and definitely not about eating everything raw, cooking is absolutely fine. I found the hardest part is being organised, we do a weekly food shop and it takes a bit more effort working out what dinners to … Continue reading Clean Brownie Recipe
Rewind, the only festival I’ve been to with an average age around 40, where everyone seems to bring a seat with them to create a seated stadium in a field and where neon is a prerequisite for entry. Oh but what a laugh we had. Mr sunshine did his best to give us glorious day but there was a fairly severe downpour creating masses of … Continue reading It was Acceptable in the 80’s
On Thursday night me and my sis trotted along to Oran Mor on a rainy summer Glasgow evening to see Ms Omielan. Yip Glasgow where you can wear a crop top but need an umbrella. If you’ve not heard of Luisa Omielan she’s a kick ass female comic I discovered via my sis and on You Tube. When your first tour is called, What Would … Continue reading Am I Right Ladies
I think that little sceptical face says it all, glamorous? Maybe more glamorless. I don’t doubt the lives of the big fashion bloggers are pretty glamorous, but I know they worked damn hard to get there. For the rest of us it’s not the glamour that spurs us on by put the sheer love of it. Whether is the hours spent fighting with code … Continue reading The Glamorous Life of the Fashion Blogger?
It’s been a full two weeks since my last outfit post, where have I been? Well, life has been pretty busy, standard blogger excuse I know. And, my photographer has been ill. A new one and genuine one. Not a dog ate my homework kinda excuse though, if my photos were printed I’m sure Seb would give them at least a little taste. My photographer … Continue reading I Aint’t Gonna Live Forever, I just wanna live while I’m Alive
We did it, and in a pretty good time 3hr 42mins. Go us! I was first up with the longest leg at 8.3miles. Turns out Edinburgh has a pretty flat course which starts with a downhill stretch, all good for me. Given I live at the top of a hill and all my training involved hill runs I smashed this little course, well by my … Continue reading Keep On Running – Update
Right now I’m likely running around a cold, wet, windy Edinburgh, well depending on how long your Sunday lie in is I might be finished. Yes today is the day, the Edinburgh Marathon Relay. I’m first up with the longest keg at 8.3 miles and I’ll be honest my training has not been up to much. I was running fairly regularly when I signed up … Continue reading Keep On Running
