Happy Monday everyone. Hope you had a great weekend. I love starting off each week by writing my Monday mindfulness – 5 happy things blog post. It’s a great chance to reflect on the things that made me happy in the previous week, as well as to record some of our family adventures – it’s a…
I love collaborations! I don’t usually eat breakfast but that didn’t stop me looking for the latest collaboration between Danone Light and Free X Orla Kiely. You all know how much I love my Orla Kiely handbags. Some of her homeware has crept into my house but generally I’m limited to a new handbag on my…
