My and my Sister have always been close. There's a four and half year age gap between us which is just enough for us not to be overly competitive, but not too much that we can't relate to each other. She's my best friend and I am so proud of everything she has achieved in her life. So this post is dedicated to her. I put a Vlog up today all about her opening night in the musical she is currently appearing in 'Around the World in 80 Days' at the Union Theatre- get tickets here . She is amazing in the show and I was so proud to see her up there. ALSO, she has started her very own YouTube Channel! This is something she has wanted to do for a really long time and she finally has. She was worried about people thinking she only started because of me but that is NOT the case. Courtney is the OG YouTube watcher and her channel is amazing! I highly recommend going over and checking it out  here . I'll leave my favourite video below, this is the first video

I am aware that this blog must feel like a long distant memory. After starting my YouTube channel and that really starting to take off, I just couldn't seem to find the time to dedicate to a blog too.  Interestingly however it doesn't seem to be just me who had their attention aimed elsewhere. The more research I do, the more it seems that people just aren't reading blogs anymore. With life being so fast paced now, people simply do not have the time, or the attention span to sit down and enjoy a blog post. This was another thing that put me off dedicating my time to it. what would be the point if no one would read it anyway? But then I really started to miss it. Missed just spilling my thoughts out into a space that was entirely my own, without a care really if anyone would ever read it, as they probably wouldn't anyway. It was then that I decided, blog posts may not be 'in' right now, but who cares?! I've never really been one to foll

T his smoothie is seriously amazing. I have to ration myself so that I don’t have it every morning and become permanently sick of it. It’s perfect for getting your morning off to a nutritious, energetic, d elicious start. Completely Dairy Free, Refined Sugar Free, all of that malarkey whilst still actually tasting good,  what’s not to love? It’s also the perfect post workout smoothie as it’s packed full of protein, especially if you add the optional Hemp Powder. It basically tastes like a chocolate milkshake, but with way more nutrients and a LOT less sugar. Read on and thank me later. Ingredients: 300ml Oat Milk or Dairy Free Alternative (feel free to use Dairy if you’d prefer) 1 tsp Cacao Powder 1/2 tsp Cinnamon Powder 150g Frozen Banana 1 tbsp Peanut Butter 1 Squeeze Honey/Maple Syrup 2 Cubes Ice 2 tbsp Hemp Powder (optional) Voila! My Favourite Chocolate-y Morning Smoothie. Let me know if you try it what you think in the comments section below!

I have been hugely terrible at updating my blog recently, and for that I apologise, but I received this gift last week and, although it is rather late, I couldn't not share it with you. I repeat, this is very very late. Not entirely sure way I'm insisting on posting it but I am obsessed with Lush  and wanted to share my joy. I was lucky enough to go home for the Easter weekend and spend some much needed time with my family. We didn't get up to much, just lots of walks, roast dinners and an ample supply of chocolate. One evening, my sister walked into the living room with a giant cardboard carrot and I was very confused. I am an avid Lush fan, and I had completely missed this Easter treat. I think their Easter bath bombs are some of my favourites, so I was extremely excited when I realised that the giant carrot of dreams, was indeed, intended for me. After having received/bought a LOT of lush products over the years, I think it is safe to say that this was one of my f

Hello! It's me! Not Adele. How are ya? Sorry I haven't posted on here for a while (I'm sure all of you reading this, i.e my Dad- Hi Dad!- are devastated). I hope that you had a great start to the year. After a bit of a slow start I feel like February just flew by and before I knew it, it was March and I hadn't put up my February Favourites YouTube video, let alone attempted a blog post. However I really do miss blogging, and after a kick up the bum from some friends and family, I've decided to get back on it. So, without further adieu, here are my February Favourites. First on quite an exciting note I have a little giveaway for you!
