Where did it come from, and where has it been?
I went to an antiques fair with a friend of mine a couple of weeks ago. It was really fun! I didn't pick up much but I did enjoy looking at everything and considering the journey that the pieces had been on up to this point. My lack of purchases was more than made up… Continue reading Where did it come from, and where has it been?

Guilty pleasure ‘news stories’
I like to keep up with what is going on in the world. I read or watch the news daily, and whilst I might not be able to talk in depth about all topics (far from it), I do pride myself on having basic knowledge on the important stuff.

Is a home complete without plants?
In my opinion, no it isn't. I was never particularly interested in having plants. I didn't dislike them or anything, they just weren't something that excited me. Also, given my track record with flowers and how easily I seemed to be able to kill them without even trying, there was a fear that the same… Continue reading Is a home complete without plants?

Do they provide for us what they claim to or is it a… Continue reading Are adult colouring books worth the hype?

A little thank-you to a favourite thing
Thank-you notes are cool right? Whether they are the old fashioned pen and paper type or the more up to date text or email; they’re nice to give and receive aren’t they?

An at home date night
This is a bit of a random post but the idea came to me and even though it's a little different to my usual content I really wanted to write it. So, here it is.

Real books versus e-books
In my last post I did a Book related Q and A and one of the questions that I answered was: 'Paperback, hardback or e-book?' I answered paperback, I didn't even need to think about it, I just knew straightaway. Anyway, that question stuck with me and got me thinking about real books versus e-books and… Continue reading Real books versus e-books
