Spread the word and make a difference

Hello, We hope that you and yours are all safe and well. Today we're going to look at a very simple way to help organisations that do good work - talk about them! Since March this year, many charities and non-profit companies have suffered a huge loss of income because of the pandemic, so now…

Changing up Advent

Dear Claire,   I loved your post about little acts of kindness. I was reminded of our Season of Giving post a couple of years ago about a Trader Joe’s children’s advent calendar that suggested a kind deed for every day, with a little chocolate reward tucked behind each door.

Paintbrushes in a jar

Dear Sam,   I’m glad to hear the gingerbread went down well. I’ll look for some more recipes for us to try before long. Perhaps something savoury next time. How are you getting along with cutting down on using your phone? I’ve just had an unplanned Digital Detox as we’ve been to see G’s Mum…

Happy new beginnings

Dear Claire,   I hope you had a lovely festive season and that 2018 is off to a good start. We had a very pretty white Christmas here, but it was so cold that some days it literally took your breath away. We still have snow on the ground, with probably more to come. So…

Hello, we hope you’re all very well after the strange and difficult time we’ve been living through over the last year.
Hello everyone, hope you are staying dry - we really do have raindrops on roses outside the window today! 🌹
Hello everyone, hope you’re not having a #fraughtfriday but, if you are, we have a new post on the blog about the stress-relieving properties of a simple hug. 🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔
“What on earth could be more luxurious than a book, a sofa, and a cup of coffee”.
Although we’re getting ready for Storm Hannah this weekend, we’re thinking about sunnier places on the blog today, where we’re talking about a little Roman holiday. Link in bio. 📸of Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday from Pixabay
Happy Easter, everyone. Enjoy the sunshine.
