Any other singles out there? Join the club, my friends. If there’s no one special in your life to exchange gifts with, why not use the day to spoil yourself instead? All these suggestions are taking into consideration the fact the UK is still in a lockdown so we need to find things to do …
Today, I have officially been alive for a quarter of a century. I should be celebrating but instead I’ve been thinking a lot about how I didn’t really get to be twenty-four. I’m sure many of us feel like an entire year of our lives has been snatched from us. So instead of dwelling about …
Let’s swap Blue Monday for ‘Brew Monday’! Last week, Samaritans kicked off their Brew Monday campaign with the goal of turning the negative outlook of a Blue Monday upside down. Statistically, the third Monday of January is known as the most depressing day of the year. In the current climate we need a ‘Brew Monday’ …
Sometimes I think I make it too obvious that I’m a huge Taylor Swift fan… Anyway, as I’ve mentioned before, last year I got really into journaling and I often use prompts to help me focus my thoughts. The other day I was just listening to some Taylor Swift, as you do, and it occured …

Anyone else had a rough year? Well you wouldn’t be alone. I almost thought about making a post on all the things that had gone wrong for me in 2020. I’ve never wanted to post anything negative on my blog, but I had no idea how to talk about 2020 positively. Then the other week …
For what is probably going to be my last Christmas post of this year, I have a tasty little recipe for you all to try out. Me and my mam usually make Millionaire’s Shortbread every year at Christmas from a recipe passed down from my nana. The recipe is so old it was written down …
Christmas music makes me very happy during the colder months. As soon as November hits my finger is always twitching over the play button for my Christmas playlist.
