Random things I want to share
In case you didn't already know I am a bit of a Harry Potter fan. So when I saw this Harry Potter tag on Writing The Blues Away I couldn't resist doing it too! 1. What house are you in? According to every sorting test/quiz/whatever I have ever taken, I am a Gryffindor. This constantly [...]
A bit of fun for today! I spotted this tag over at Sprinkle and Dreams, and the lovely Lily was kind enough to invite me to join in. Being a lover of all things Harry Potter I, obviously, accepted! https://giphy.com/embed/FaLhiZQHrBIYwvia GIPHY When you're done here, you should all go and follow this lovely literary blog. [...]
Hello lovelies. It's been a hell of a few weeks. It's been busy, tiring, stressful, emotional and I've had this post in the back of my head for probably a month now without doing anything with it. As it happens, a post focusing on a few of my favourite things is just what I need [...]
A rather late post but I've still made it (just) inside National Poetry Day. I couldn't let today pass without sharing my favourite poem: Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll.

It's been a while since I shared some random loveliness discovered elsewhere on the web so without further ado here is a collection of links to keep you occupied and entertained on this soggy Sunday: - We all need a reminder now and then that the allusive idea of the 'perfect' body is NOT the [...]
We've already established that January is hard. Post-festive blues set in along with the realisation that you have eaten too much and now some of your clothes just don't quite fit. It's back to work, early morning alarms and instead of reading all the books, playing the games or watching the films you got for [...]
Anybody else feeling baffled by the fact that it's September tomorrow? I mean really how did that happen? On the plus side it means that it's time for buying back-to-school supplies. Yay! All that lovely stationary and bags and loveliness. So since I'm currently pining after bouquets of sharpened pencils and all that malarky I [...]
