30 Days of Green Tea
Kathleen2020-09-30T11:16:12+10:00THE CHALLENGE drink at least 1 cup of green tea per day, for 30 days in a row. I started drinking green tea roughly four years ago. I tend to prefer hot drinks in the cooler months & cold drinks in the warmer months. This means I drink more tea, coffee and hot chocolate in winter, more water in summer. I used to be quite sensitive to caffeine, I'd have to have my tea or coffee by midday or risk not being able to sleep that night. Also having the odd panic attack when I had too much caffeine. It [...]
YouTube Limelight: Blendtec

The Parcel Autumn 2017

I took way too long to try everything. Then I took even longer to sit down to write about it. FACE Burt's Bees - Lip Crayon 100% Natural I do quite like the few Burts Bees products I have tried & this is no exception. The colour is a good match for me, it looks quite natural. The only let down is it smell quite waxy, like a crayon. Biore - Baking Soda Scrub [...]
YouTube Limelight: Simply Nailogical
Kathleen2023-06-20T07:02:26+10:00Each month I feature one of my favourite YouTube channels, sharing the little things I like about them and of course the video I like best. This month is Simply Nailogical. I originally came across Cristine's channel when the "100 layers" videos were doing the rounds. You wouldn't think 100 layers of nail polish could look so creepy! I can't even begin to imagine how long it took her to do either. Sometimes the second coat of nail polish can take five minutes to dry. It can be really hard not to laugh out loud while watching Cristine. I find [...]
