Time For A Cuppa | Twinings Giveaway

by

Do you ever get 'that sinking feeling' late afternoon? Not quite dinner time, but lunch seems a distant memory? If you do you aren't alone, in fact Anna the 7th Duchess of Bedford (and close friend of Queen Victoria) in the early 19th century discovered the perfect solution - afternoon tea. During this period tea consumption increased dramatically in ...

What’s In The Box? Giveaway!

by

I'm not a massive consumer 365 days of the year. Understatement. When it comes to Christmas, and the giving of gifts we do give some gifts to close family.

A Decluttering Giveaway

by

Monday is 'Purpose & Place' day at Chez Wright. It is getting easier to establish whether an item still has a use and where it should be kept. But I'm still decluttering...I'm wondering if I'll ever stop? It's also getting easier to decide what to do with decluttered items.
