I can’t actually believe we’re already halfway through the year. I’m not sure if it’s the lack of summer so far, or the fact that I’m getting older (and so the entire year just passes…
Who doesn’t love a bargain? I do! Especially if it’s something I really want, and would have bought at full price anyway. Then it kind of feels like you’ve really struck lucky, like you were…
I am an ex smoker. Yup. Disgusting habit, but hey, we all do things we shouldn’t do. And, I’m not going to lie, back then, I really enjoyed smoking. I had no kids, I was…
Hands up if you have hormones? Oh, you do? Yay you….. I’d like to invite you to my house, where you could see a shed load of hormones in action. Mine, the teenagers and the…
Planning your first cruise might seem like a daunting prospect but taking a systematic approach will pay dividends. Turning what might initially appear to be the less fun part of the process into an exciting…
Money is the root of all evil. So they say. But, I don’t know about you, I don’t think I could live without it. Literally and figuratively. No one likes to talk cash, not unless…
Stuff. All the stuff, everywhere. I’m not sure if I’m late to the ‘spring clean’ party or what, but the amount of stuff I have everywhere is driving me insane! It’s not hard to imagine,…
It’s been a while since I stepped foot in an airport. I’m yearning to get away from the ‘everyday’ and have some time to switch off. From everything. You don’t actually realise how much you…
Could not love a quote more. I am obsessed with lighting in our home. Each room has a different need, a different reason for lighting and sometimes, it has multiple needs. Apart from the obvious,…
Having a phobia is a common thing. It could be completely irrational, and you have no clue where it stems from, or it could be from a traumatic experience as a child and you’ve not…
Happy New Week! God, I’ve been MIA for a while now. I keep falling in and out of love with blogging, and social media as a whole if I’m honest. So much of it is…
Taipei is a bustling and welcoming city, packed with cultural opportunities. You may not be able to do everything in 36 hours, but you can certainly get a flavour of this fascinating place. Here are…
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? Mine would be something like a faster metabolism, or smaller waist, the normal kind of thing. I think if you asked my nine…
Thirty Seven. I remember being in my teens and early twenties and thinking that 37 sounded so damn old. So close to 40, so far away from 25. But then, 25 sounded old when I…
Hi, my name is Kate and I am a shopaholic. I don’t even try and hide this fact anymore. I love nothing more than a wander around the shops (child free if you’re offering, thanks)…
Ah Motherhood. The only job where, one minute, you feel like you’ve got it nailed, the next, you’re wondering how the hell you’re supposed to prepare these people for real life when you forget to…
Hello Fresh are my dinner time saviours (more about that here). Despite saying we would never be ‘those people’ – the bloke and I have found ourselves struggling for dinner ideas, with the phrase “I…
Hi, it’s me. I think I’ve been MIA since the middle of January, longer if you don’t count sponsored stuff I’ve written, and it’s all gone a bit arse up really hasn’t it? I have…
Everyone knows that Winter has its strong points, right? Cosy nights in, roaring fires and thick jumpers, hot chocolates and of course Christmas! But when the festive season has been and gone, and the New…
