Okay so who doesn’t receiving edible treats as gifts? You don’t? Please leave now. For those of you who are still with me, let’ get to the good stuff. Whether as a gift on it’s own or as part of a hamper, food and booze is always a winner in my eyes, although I’m usuallyContinue reading “Gift Guide – Food and Drink”

At times like this, it is so important to shop small and local when you can! We have lots of super talented bodies here in the Scottish Borders so I’m dedicating this post to the small, local businesses around me. Again, I will mainly focus on those that I have had personal experience with andContinue reading “Gift Guide – Shop Local”

Another day, another gift guide and this time I’m looking at all things home related! I’m currently in the process of moving house yet again, and it’s even more difficult than usual due to this virus!

I apologise in advance,Continue reading “My Working Life…So Far”

So one thing I like to do around the end of Summer/ start of Autumn is rooting around for wild fruit and making them into something tasty and unhealthy. This year we have had an abundance of brambles as well as some unexpected plums as well as some big green apples.

So, I’ve been a member of Craft Gin Club for a couple of years now and it is actually amazing. Even if you don’t like gin, it’s worth it for the snacks alone…okay maybe that’s an exaggeration but it’s that good! I get the quarterly subscription as even though I love gin, I can’t getContinue reading “Craft Gin Club September 2020”
