To be honest, when I got a NUTRIBULLET*, I thought I’d make a couple of smoothies and it would go in the cupboard to die. You know, like the rest of the crazy fads we all own; the toastie maker which is great till you have to clean it, the random popcorn maker you got one Christmas because you’re “difficult to buy for” and the good old cafetiere that no one has time for. Because hello kettle!
I didn’t expect that for the past month, J and I would actually be using it every day!
Since trying courgetti spaghetti at Bella Italia, I’ve been dying to make my own. So when Savisto got in touch and asked if I wanted to test out one of their kitchens gadgets, I knew it had to be the Spiralizer.
I love flowers, they’re just so happy. You know what I mean, right? We don’t have fresh flowers enough in our house and that’s something I want to try and change this year.
Now I’ve been blogging for a whole year (well a year tomorrow but I’m impatient), I thought I’d host a bit of a giveaway to say thank you for supporting me and reading my blog 🙂 ♥
Last Friday the sun was out and by the time I got home after work, it was still really warm so we dragged the patio furniture out and chilled out in the garden with some Prosecco from Premier Estates Wine. They were at the Blogosphere Cover Reveal Party and got in touch after the event to see if I wanted to try some more of their wine ♥ Yes, I believe I absolutely did thank you very much!
I’ve changed my makeup for spring, I’ve started changing my wardrobe; hell, I’ve even started lightening my hair for those sunnier days; but I find to really change into that spring-to-summer mood, I also need to change my bedding to reflect the lighter, warmer days and those hot, sticky nights.
Word seems to have got out that Mr Bear is a little pro cat blogger. Would that make him a #catblogger?
Anyway, after his foray into the world of food sampling, he’s now testing out the latest technology from Surefeed; a motion sensor cat food bowl! It’s totally gone to his head and he’s demanding his own blog! I don’t think so buddy!
I’ve just got home, I’m tired and hungry but I’m also really excited! Why? Because I’ve just spent time with the lovely Ellisha (SM Manager) and Emma (Visual Merchandising Manager) from Re:So ‘the first fully student-operated retail initiative’. In essence, the store is not only run and marketed solely by the students at Solent University in Southampton, but they also make and design all the products that are showcased in store!
So why am I writing this post and not chilling on the sofa stuffing my face with salmon and lemony, buttery, garlicy sauce? Because they’re only in Brighton until Sunday and honestly guys, you’ve gotta check them out!
Back in February, I shared the first part of our garden renovation project (which you can read about here). This post is all about part two of the project; the back garden.
