Happy Holidays
- February 04, 2024
Lately I’ve been reminiscing about our holidaying habits. Pre-pandemic, the Husband and I would do what most families do every year, we would plan and take an annual holiday. Most of the time we would stay in the UK with the occasional bigger trips to places like Florida and Iceland. One year we pushed the...
Happy Planting!
- January 01, 2024
About 4 years ago, I became the keeper of a local allotment plot. I know what you are thinking. How can someone who says she has no time or sticking power ever even consider getting an allotment, never mind keeping it for 4 years?
Well first of all, I never wanted it. Having a fair sized...
Water Therapy
- November 26, 2023
Are you a bath or a shower person?
Even though they both involve water they provide entirely different experiences. Showers are meant to be a quick and more energy efficient and sustainable way to get washed whereas taking a bath isn’t but provides a more relaxing experience.

Let’s talk about the weather!

Described as a wellbeing gift from India, the Shaki Mat is just a piece of foam, covered in fabric with lots of little plastic spikes...
Busy being Fadulous!
- January 29, 2022
On my 40th Birthday, I broke the mirror in my bedroom.
I was trying to drag my newly delivered mattress onto our bed and the combination of the size and weight of the thing made it an unwieldy beast which I had little control over. I had to let it go which caused uproar when...
Eating Seasonally
- December 21, 2021
Picture the scene. It’s a few days before Christmas and myself and my husband are in Home Bargains buying last minute ‘essentials’ for the festive break. I need to get some of that brandy flavored white dessert sauce that we have with our Chistmas pudding and because it’s Christmas, I have to buy two cartons...
My experience of Ayurveda

If you are a reader of my posts, you will know that I love reading articles and magazines, especially those on health, wellbeing and lifestyle. You will also know that I’m a sucker for being taken in by most things that I read that promises to improve my health and wellbeing in some way,...
