Christmas Yule Log Recipe Review

My favourite thing about Christmas has to be yule log. I absolutely love it. Especially with a nice glass of milk! The best kind are the ones with the hard chocolate around them, but to be honest, I’m not too fussy!

I’m pretty sure if I didn’t have this blog there’s no way I would have attempted to try making my own yule log, especially as it’s so easy to buy them, but I do love a challenge!

Christmas Cocktail Recipes*

I’m definitely in the Christmas mood now.  We’ve bought our goose for Christmas dinner, there’s the remains of a yule log in the fridge waiting to be eaten (you can see my post about it here) and the house is looking beautifully festive.

However; there is one thing missing, a good old Christmas cocktail.  Eggnog cocktails to be more precise, bcause let’s face it, Christmas wouldn’t be the same without them and be honest, who doesn’t love snuggling under a blanket watching Christmas films while drinking eggnog?

I Just Love It | The Gift Of Giving*

I love a good bit of mail. Especially when it’s cute mail as opposed to the usual bills and junk mail. Although I do love those Papa Johns flyers that come through the door! Because Papa Johns is the one!

Anyway, Sophie from I Just Love It got in touch a while ago to let me know about their Christmas campaign #IJLIGiftofGiving and that they wanted to work with bloggers to do a gift swap. Not only that but my gorgeous, lovely BBFF Jemma was going to be swapping with me.

A couple of months ago, I was offered the chance to try out some of the Bravura Skincare range and I couldn’t believe it when all this came through the door!

Even before using the products, I was really impressed with how they looked.  I love the beautifully coloured glass bottles and the gold writing on the front with rose gold lids ♥

Five Christmas Party Products*

We’re one day away from December.  This is not a drill.  Party season is pretty much here; those awkward office parties where someone snogs Tim from accounts, the New Year’s Eve parties that are exactly the same every year but you go anyway in the hopes that this year will be different and you won’t end up in the kebab shop where all the staff know your name and you only seem to be wearing one shoe.

Wherever you’re going this festive season, my five must-have party products will get you looking and feeling your best.  Even if it does rain and Sandra from HR throws up in the new expensive bag you got for Christmas.

November Favourites 2016

I’m pretty glad to be seeing the back of November if I’m being honest because it’s been a bit of a roller-coaster month. But onward and upwards and all that jazz.

I’m really looking forward to December, especially Christmas, because I get to spend some downtime with J and my family. But before December happens, here’s a quick look at the things that I’ve been loving through November.
