Since I started going to blog meets and events at the beginning of this year, I’ve accumulated about 6 drawers full of goodies! I always mean to get around to trying everything, but life and being forgetful lazy gets in the way. So I thought if I made blog posts out of it, I’d probably actually make an effort to try out some of the bits and let you know what they’re like!
Cin Cin* (pronounced chin chin), a new Brighton restaurant, is an absolute gem nestled in the heart of North Laine. (13-16 Vine Street to be more precise!)
Starting out four years ago as a mobile food van, Cin Cin was the vision of David, who wanted to bring an authentic Italian taste to Brighton. He then brought Fabrizio and Jamie on board to open up the Cin Cin restaruant and boy, did they deliver!
Only out a week late, (but what’s a week between mates, right?) here’s my October favourites list of things I’ve been loving and it’s a pretty varied list this month 🙂
Nestled in a part of Brighton I’ve never really ventured before (Gloucester Road) is Shine; a hair salon with added nail bar and massage treatments. I was invited to check them out because Jonathan, the salon owner, has just brought out a gorgeous shampoo bar. (Not like an alcohol bar. Don’t get those two confused.)
I did have a big Halloween post planned, but to be honest, this weekend has been a chill out and re-charge my batteries weekend instead. I did get loads of blog photos taken though, which was great!
So I figured, instead, I could share some Halloween-related facts about me!
It’s been a long time since I’ve had cocktails. The last disastrous night out was my 28th birthday and it didn’t end well. Luckily this time, I had the Yelpers to keep me in check.
I have to be honest, I’d never heard of Licor 43 before, but after trying quite a bit, I think it’s going to become one of my go-to spirits!
In a previous bucket list post, I said that I was going to see Nickelback in concert. I’ve now seen Nickelback in concert, and hot damn, they were phenomenal.
Following on from my last confessions regarding both Topshop and my guilty pleasures; I have one more big one for you, and you’re not going to like it. Up until recently I wasn’t a massive Lush fan because their shops smell too over-powering to me.
But, after heading to the Lush store in Crawley in the hopes of having my mind changed forever, they’ve 100% succeeded and I’m now a certified … Lushite? Lusholian? Whatever it might be, I feel I can now send off for my official blogger’s badge because I ♥ Lush.
I when I was visiting my parents last year, I found a bucket list in my old bedroom. Some things on it were mundane life stuff and some things were weird hopes, dreams and aspirations I wanted for my future.
Since I found it, I’ve managed to cross things off the list, add things to it and change it. But here are some of the things on that list 🙂
Smashburger is the latest in a long line of American fast food restaurants coming to the UK and setting up home. And, having just opened their latest branch in Brighton, the Yelpers were invited to check it out to see if it measures up to what’s already on offer.
