Jislaaik!
jislaaik: [yis-like] An expression of outrage or surprise: “Jislaaik, I just saw Elvis!” (Thanks Brand South Africa for the explanation!) As you all know, I am all about supporting local! I would rather spend a little bit extra & support a small business that handmakes goodies than buying something that everyone else has. Plus by […]
Bits & Blobs
Have you ever watched a clip/video & been completely mesmerized, so you carry on watching what they have available & before you know it a couple of hours have passed? This is what happened when I came across Bits & Blobs on Instagram & Facebook. She makes absolutely gorgeous slimes & squishy things, & her […]
Tattoos by Tory
As part of Women’s Month, I knew I wanted to do a focus on women who have achieved a lot in an industry that is predominantly run by men. Instagram has been a great tool to search & look for inspiration of ideas of women who are pushing boundaries, achieving what was previously unachievable, & […]
Lulupie
Scrolling through Facebook one day I cam across a page called Lulupie. They do paperless patterns which means that they print the actual pattern on the fabric so all you have to do is cut out the design & sew it together. Plus they can even make your own fabric with a design of your […]

Pretty Bright Girls
When Libby started helping us in our home some time back, I asked her what she would like to wear. Did she want to wear civvies, or would she rather have a uniform? She said a uniform would suit her better as this made it feel like she was going to work & she didn’t […]
Be Kind To Every Kind
Did you know that this month is #PlasticFreeJuly? When I found out about this, I vowed that I was going to do my little bit to be more eco-friendly. I have chosen to say “NO!” to plastic bags at all the shops, & carry my own fabric bags with me. If I forget them at […]
Nut Butter Mafia
Our family has always had a slight obsession with nut butters – on apples or bananas; in a smoothie; on toast with sugar/syrup/bacon; mixed together with ice cream & milo; or even just out the jar as a little pick me up (yes, by the spoonful!). In fact there are probably at least 10 other […]
Rogue’s Pawsome Bakery
If you know anything about me, you know that my animals are my children & our number one priority! They sleep in the bed with us; come on holiday when we go away (when possible); & I have cried nearly every time I have had to take them to the vet. There are times that […]
Metafit
Movement is a medicine for creating change in a person’s physical, emotional, and mental states. Carol Welch I have never been hugely into fitness or exercise, and since getting my diagnosis of Myasthenia Gravis my exercise has had to take a back seat just so my muscles can cope with normal everyday life. My sister, […]
