WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU DON’T HAVE BLOGGING MOTIVATION ANYMORE

September 17, 2019 25 Comments

Hi,

It’s been quite a while since I came on here and it actually does feel wierd a bit, hopefully I gain momentum and be more consistent in the weeks to come. How you all doing? How was your Summer? I hope you had a great one, mine was okay, we travelled to visit friends and family and now back at it again with school runs and meal prepping, basically back to reality lol. So today’s post is all about motivation, we’ve all heard about writer’s block but what about what to do when you don’t have blogging motivation anymore? I thought I would write a bit about that and tell you what I normally do when it happens to me.

CRISPY OVEN-BAKED CHICKEN WINGS

July 9, 2019 37 Comments

Hello Everyone,

I hope you’re all doing great today, last week flew by so fast and this week, my boy turns 6. I can’t believe it but it’s exciting and just nice to see. We ended up having his party this past weekend because schools close this Friday and everyone will be off on holiday so the earlier the better. All in all everything turned out fine and it was a success, shoutout to bakersdays for the best birthday cake. Today’s post is for my foodies out there, Summer is here so lots of outdoor cooking if the weather behaves. Crispy oven-baked chicken wings is the recipe I have for you today and I know you will definitely love them. The best part is you can also grill them if you wish I think I will do that next time. Before I get on with it, stop by here and check out my last post.

HOW TO FEEL HAPPIER NOW

July 2, 2019 20 Comments

Hey there,

Happy new month everyone, I hope you all had a lovely weekend and enjoyed the heatwave that followed. Today I’m back with a new post for you and it’s a joyful one this time. Who doesn’t want to feel happy all the time? I know life happens and it might seem impossible to just be happy one time and stay that way all day but it is possible and you can do it. You’ve heard about the “I’ll be happy when” syndrome, so long as you keep on waiting for something to happen or something to arrive for you to be happy, that’s when you mess things up. You have to be happy first and feel good in order for it to come, the best part is it’s really not that difficult, here are a few ways on how to feel happier now.

Hello,

I know it’s been a while and I am sorry for disappearing like that but a well deserved break was needed and hopefully I can keep up, I have just been in a rut and wasn’t feeling like blogging at all. Anyway, I have a post for you today, when it comes to nails, I am one of those people who likes looking at well-manicured nails and try to copy designs, or look for particular nail polishes I see online and figure out whether or not they suit me and along the way, I used some hacks for my so called manicure sessions. These are nail polish and nail hacks every girl should know.

6 SKINCARE PRODUCTS I WANT TO TRY OUT THIS YEAR

April 9, 2019 39 Comments

Hiya,

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. Spring is here and as much as I’d like to be happy and cheerful, it usually comes with some consequences for me. I am not saying hay fever and sneezing but mine is like double that where it not only attacks my eyes but from last year, my face has decided to get coin like swellings out of the blue either on the side of my face or dead centre on my forehead or the current one right on the side of my nose. The funny thing is it only comes during Spring, decides to stay all through Summer and then Autumn checks in and my face is clear again. The only thing that has been helping is pills on a daily basis, loads of concealer and the thought of these 6 skincare products I want to try out this year.

Anyway, I didn’t come today to say about my skin issues but it’s nice to say it so that if you meet me anywhere and see something bulging from my face just know it’s my Spring allergies. So today I have a post on skincare products I would love to try, I already wrote about products that didn’t work for me a while back do check them out here. There are so many but I just chose the ones I have been keeping my eyes on for a while.
