Home School and Lockdown: My Daily Routine

We’re into week four (or is it five now?) of home school/ lockdown here in the UK, so life is beginning to feel somewhat ‘normal’ again- at least to the degree that I’m used to this by now. Of course, lockdown can never feel normal. Not going to school can never feel normal. Not seeingContinue reading “Home School and Lockdown: My Daily Routine”

My Favourite Home School Drinks

Here we are again… back to lockdown and home school. By the time we reached our second lockdown, this was all getting pretty old and I honestly didn’t think we’d be switching back to school from home- but now here we are! The days feel long, lonely and often boring, especially when I have schoolContinue reading “My Favourite Home School Drinks”

The Importance of Goals

I remember going back to school in January after a Christmas break when I was a lot younger- maybe 7 or 8. We’d come back, excited to see our friends again and with renewed energy, full of stories from over the Christmas break- who got what and who went where. The teachers always took thisContinue reading “The Importance of Goals”

This Is the Day

30 days left in 2020. Can you believe it?!?! I know for one I can’t! This year has gone so fast, I can still vividly remember December 31st, 2019. My family and I were spending a couple nights with friends we visit every New Years. The five of us girls were eagerly awaiting midnight; watchingContinue reading “This Is the Day”

A Thought for Thanksgiving

It’s almost Thanksgiving, and things are beginning to get festive! In our house alone my mom has ordered fabric for my sister to make seasonal bunting, and this morning I went out to buy a pumpkin for my Thanksgiving centrepiece. In the UK, Thanksgiving isn’t a public holiday, but in the US where it is,Continue reading “A Thought for Thanksgiving”

Cosy Evening Routine

Imagine this… you’re wrapped up all cosy and warm in your favourite chair, a facemask on, drinking some warm tea or hot chocolate and watching your favourite Netflix show, with a lovely candle burning in the background. As far as a relaxing evening goes for me, there is little I love more than being allContinue reading “Cosy Evening Routine”

Whipped Aquafaba Facemask

Have you heard of aquafaba? Well, I hadn’t until a couple weeks ago, but now I know what it is, I’m completely in love! Like seriously, it could not be cooler! Aquafaba is simply a fancy word for the liquid that comes from a can of chickpeas. I know it sounds gross, but trust me,Continue reading “Whipped Aquafaba Facemask”

My favourite podcasts

During lockdown- back in the days where we couldn’t see anyone outside our ‘bubble’, and we could only go outside once a day- I got really into podcasts and audiobooks. It feels strange to remember those days where we were basically trapped inside- it feels like a whole lifetime away! I am so glad thatContinue reading “My favourite podcasts”
