SLYMI: Week 44
This week's challenge was to scrap about something that scares you. I decided to be honest and admit that, for me, it's being a mummy!
Living A Good Life?
This is a post I've been giving a lot of thought to of late. I recently expanded my blogging horizons and joined the Pink Saturday project; this in turn has introduced me to loads of other fellow bloggers with similar outlooks to me.

The store was called, rather disappointingly, Something Nice. Very bland. Those gorgeous cushions didn't have any visible price tags and I'm not supposed to be … Continue reading Eye Candy

On the gift front, 4 years is supposed to be linen; The Brainy One has given me a beautiful Smythson 2010 diary and a copy of Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel … Continue reading May the 4th Be With Us
