Ooo la la!
The blog bug has been nibbling me a lot lately and I find myself thinking in ‘blog bytes’ on a near daily basis. When this starts happening there’s really only one thing to do and that is to listen to the nibble. Get writing, silly girl! So now it’s late and I have to get … Continue reading
A little perspective
Just when you think that you have reason to complain, life sends something your way that puts it all into perspective. Here’s today’s little message…
The little sparks…
It’s been a tough year. I have not loved living in London and I’ve missed New York and Cape Town tremendously. And, while I realise that I cannot blame everything on London itself, the fact that the rain is pummeling down and the wind is howling as I type this – and I have the … Continue reading
Amazing Places Around the Globe
One of my favourite UK blogs, The Cool Hunter, published their list of amazing places around the globe a week or so ago. So I figured I’d offer you a little travel porn today. Pick your favourite photo and, just for a moment today, imagine that you’re there. Smell the air, listen to the sounds, … Continue reading
Wild Swedish berries!
Last night John returned from a trip to Sweden and had a rather peculiar package in his bag for me – from his mum. It was rather soft and squishy and very light and wrapped in tin foil. I opened it carefully, not quite sure what to expect and shrieked with delight when I found … Continue reading
GLEE!
This Gleek is just back from GLEE Live in London at the O2 Arena. Now, bear with me if you have no idea what I’m talking about. (If you know, you know…if you get what I mean?) It was awesome. No Mr Schuester and no Sue Sylvester, very sadly, but the entire rest of the … Continue reading

For the past two weeks I’ve been following Timothy Ferris’ 4-Hour Body diet. I’m not going to bore you with the details (read the book – seriously!), but basically, for six days you follow this diet that is high in protein (30grams of protein within 30 minutes of waking up), no white carbs – he’s … Continue reading
Breathtaking moments
This here ain’t no ‘self-help’ blog (said while snapping my fingers AND my lips), but I’ve found a lot of inspiration for daily happiness and light amidst all the gray, rainy days in London, from talking with friends (and even the occasional stranger) and getting their take on a breathtaking moment. And there are these special moments … Continue reading
Today four years ago…
…We said I do. And it’s, to this date, the best thing I’ve ever said. Thank you for everything, my sweets. It’s been quite a ride.
I still heart Obama
Long-time readers of this blog may remember my PDA’s for (now) President Obama in the run up to the US elections. His charm, intelligence and adoration for his family captured my heart. And, three years on, it still does! London’s gone gaga for Obama over the past couple of days as Barack and Michelle paid … Continue reading
