Thinking About Christmas
I am starting to think about Christmas, are you? This morning, watching the autumn leaves falling to the ground, a thought ‘it’s time to get the Christmas bauble rolling’ came to me. I love Christmas. Over the last few years, it’s increasingly become a pleasure and most definitely has moved away from any potential of it becoming a chore. The top ...
Grana Padano Top Chef Giveaway
I had the most A-Mazing day on Saturday. Lucky me, was one of 4 bloggers invited to Venturi's Table in London, competing to be crowned Grana Padano Top Chef 2015.

The Law of Accumulation
Being completely honest, as far as blogging goes I'm a bit hopeless. Back in July I threw out a challenge for myself (and others) to see whether £600 (or $600) could be generated through the sale of unwanted clutter from around the home. My target was to achieve £600 by the end of August. Did it happen? No of course not, it's me we are talking about ...
Dust If You Must
Something quite extraordinary has happened since last Tuesday. A Facebook update, I shared, has reached over 5,000 and has had 56 shares.

The competition sounded right up my street. Particularly when ...
