Shopping for my Dream Bar

I suddenly realised I’ve been in my house 5 years. 5 years, and I still feel like we just moved in. We put in a gorgeous new fireplace and did some big ish work like moving the back door to give us a bigger kitchen space. Then we just kind of stopped. The kitchen is

How to Make Rose Gold Shimmer Prosecco

Today, boys and girls, we’re going to make Rose Gold Shimmer Prosecco! I do like a nice glass of fizzy wine. And if there’s one thing I like better than fizzy wine, it’s finding ways to pimp it up. In the past I’ve added Candy Floss and Ice Cream to Prosecco to create snazzy cocktails.

The Sub 2 Hour Half Marathon Project – The Results

Well, that was certainly an adventure! Some of you may remember that back in January, in a flurry of optimism, I offered to help my husband train for the Norwich Half Marathon. Well, this Sunday was the day of reckoning! This years Norwich Half Marathon was the fourth he had run, and the first since

A Sunny Day and the Pictures I Nearly Didn't Post

Well, how about that weather, huh? I hate to be so terribly British (no I don’t, not really) but I can’t start writing this blog post without mentioning that it was TWENTY TWO FRICKING DEGREES yesterday. If I didn’t mention it then this outfit might seem a little out of place in early April. A

This Week I…..

Morning folks! As you read this I should be standing in the sunshine watching Mr Chick set off on the Norwich Half Marathon. The BBC has been promising me sunshine all week, so there is a chance it will be raining, but hopefully it’s sunshine. I made an attempt to write Mr Chick a training

Easter Gifts for Grown Ups (No Chocolate In Sight!)

Easter gifts for Grown Ups are tough to buy. Easter is a pastel coloured, chocolate filled dream when you’re 5. By the time you’re 35 you’ve figured out you get a lot more chocolate if you just buy a family sized bar. Not that that means I don’t love an Easter Egg, especially one that

Spring Pastels

I’m not frightened of a cliche. I don’t wear a lot of pink, or pastels, but tell me it’s Spring and everything I have comes out of my wardrobe immediately. Actually, somewhat typically, on the morning I decided to wear all these spring pastels and take some photos, the glorious sunshine we’ve been having decided

This Week I…..

Hello there! Welcome to April! I’m a little groggy this morning as one “cheer up” Saturday afternoon pint turned into a few “cheer up” Saturday afternoon pints and now all but 2 of the Wetherspoons CAMRA vouchers that I am supposed to used to drink responsibly over 3 months are gone. Bad Retro Chick. Todays

Friday Frock Love – Spring Gingham

For some people Spring means floral frocks. I prefer gingham dresses. Gingham is a weird word. Say it over and over in your head and it starts to sound really weird. Ging-Ham. Ging-ham. See. As a fabric though, I think it’s kinda cute. I like the big chunky ginghams and the small understated gingham. Gingham
