Going Back To My Roots (Comments Off)

Dead easy to make. 10 minutes from the time you fill up the kettle for your pot of boiling water to that first moreish morsel in your gob.

In my quest to follow a Paleo lifestyle as best as I can, I have created the following dish that will satiate your appetite, fill you up on protein and taste oh so wonderful. It only takes 5 minutes to prep and in they go in the oven for 35-40 minutes, turning them over halfway [...]

As of January 2nd of this year, I have embarked on a Paelo lifestyle. That’s right, I eat like a caveman, err….cavemoman to be exact. I’m sure this sounds bizarre to folks who aren’t on the Paleo bandwagon (or haven’t even heard of it). Still, the last thing I want to do is to lecture my friends [...]

I’ve never really experimented with Stila makeup before but upon browsing the makeup stands at my local department store recently, I decided to give Stila a chance and picked up their eyeliner, Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Moray. A beautiful shade of taupy green with a hint of gold shimmer, subtle to the eyes [...]

I just want to state, first and foremost, that I love my boyfriend, not because he is a kick-ass boyfriend (because he is) but because he pays attention to the little important stuff that I like, such as makeup and beauty products. And in a recent bid to find out what presents to offer me [...]

I was in a creative mood last night…not in the culinary sense for once but for trinkets fashioned with my bare hands to create my latest masterpiece =) I realised I hadn’t done much in a while and I have rather been neglectful of this little passion of mine. So there I was, sat in [...]

I have recently discovered Khobez, which is a pre-cooked flatbread common in Middle Eastern countries. Incredibly versatile in that you can use it to mop up the delicious juices of your tagine, fill it up with your favourite ingredients for a quick lunch time wrap or, as I have discovered tonight, use as a [...]

I suffered the mother of all breakouts recently when I tried out Nanoblur. I think the last time my skin ever suffered a bad reaction to anything was to the St Tropez fake tan a couple of years ago! Anyhoo, my face is now back on the mend and whilst not completely blemish free (how [...]

I spy a new beauty range! I have never been a big fan of slathering on the face cream in the morning, out of paranoia that I would break out, opting rather for the odd dab on wherever my face needs it. However my entire face has been feeling quite tight and dry lately, no doubt due [...]

Sometimes, no matter how much we love high heels, they can hates us and our feet pay the price. Hence, the appeal of ankle wedge boots. Like these babies I am currently wearing to death. No need to sacrifice height for comfort, I can now have the best of both worlds! Incredibly versatile as you [...]

I am a big fan of DYI nails, but every now and again it is nice to have a little treat and go for something that last a bit longer than your usual 3-days-and-then -it-starts-to-chip drugstore nail polish. Bio Scuplture Gel has always been a firm choice of mine but when my good friend [...]
