I’ve said it all before. I’ve tried to find the urge to blog again too, in various times and in various ways. But honestly? I don’t believe in it any more. I don’t feel safe doing it. The idea of writing something controversial and the meanness of what some people will do with that horrifies […]

Memories of Paris from my teens – and my teen.
On Monday, Expedia invited me to write about Paris and my memories of visiting there when I was younger. I wrote the post and had it ready to post on Tuesday morning. I’ve held it back until this morning and mulled all week about my feelings regarding travel, anxiety and living life without fear. The […]
An age old Christmas problem, fir real #terriblepun

When habits cost the earth (and hit your pocket too).
Do you have shopping habits? I know I do. One of them, for reasons I can’t explain, is that if I go intro a shop to buy a set of ingredients or top up supplies (and it tends to be me who does this), if one or two of the items are on some form […]
Creative uses for catering supplies.
This weekend I went through my craft cupboard and chucked out 4 large laundry tubs of stuff that has been shoved in there and not used over the last 4 years. My girls are outgrowing crafting as fast as they are outgrowing parties and I’m not overly convinced that Bene is going to grow into […]
Bittersweet revenge.
I’m not normally a particularly vengeful human, though I admit there have been a couple of times recently when karma has bitten a bottom very sweetly.
