A Guide To Meditation & New Recipes Last month I took a little summer holiday from my blog. I love writing every month on Generosity of Spirit but sometimes you need a break and that is exactly what I needed, and it was lovely. To start this blog I wanted to take a moment to…

Your ‘New Normal’
Over the last few months I think we have all been collectively and gradually stretching out of lockdown life- like a bear coming out of hibernation. Everything is falling into a ‘first time since the pandemic’ tick box … first coffee shop, bar, pub, restaurant, hotel, cinema, theatre etc. etc. While these final stages of…
Restaurant Review: Ingham Swan
Loving food as much as I do, one of the things I missed the most during the (many!) lockdowns was going out to eat in restaurants. I love the whole experience of dining out – the atmosphere, the service, menu studying, beautiful wines and great food. Obviously, I have my favourites – but I am…

2020: My Favourite Things
2020: My Favourite Things What a year it has been for us all. It has felt like we’ve all been on a rollercoaster, rolling off the tracks… into the unknown, with more ups and downs and loop-de-loops than anyone really cared for! But we made it- the last month of 2020. I wanted to end…
A Simple Life
2020 hasn’t been quite what anyone expected. I started this blog, looking back at my blog posts from November and then December 2019- and couldn’t help but giggle at my optimism for a New Year, knowing now, what was to come. Thinking about February/March 2020 – you’d be forgiven for thinking it was the start…
