Dear Mr Save,
Three months ago I attended one of your many grocery stores in dire need of everything. You see, we now live in Dannevirke which is where your fake posh cousin (who never gives you the time of day but copies your lead when
Read MoreIt all started at University when I was time rich and money poor. Those were the days when for some (not me, obviously!) the student loan, any money earned working a few pathetic hours per week hungover or course related costs were spent on alcohol, fast food, clothes and rent (in that order).
Read MoreDear Mr Men,
I want to preface this by saying that I am not a feminist. I am a realist. I believe in equality, accountability of decision making and conscientious living.
Read MoreWe live in an age of social norms, comparisons and filters. It is hard to decipher what is real from what is not. It is easy to think someone is living their best life when all you have to go off is their snippets of the highlight reels showcased with pretty filters and cheesy captions. It’s easy to forget that those snippets probably make up 5% (if that) of their every day life. This leaves many feeling unjustifiably inadequate.
Read MoreThere are not many surprises left these days. We live in world motivated by technological advances and fast paced living. Everything we need to know is right at our fingertips with the touch of a button. That suits me because, generally speaking, I am not really one for surprises. Rationale: I like to be prepared and avoid embarrassing situations like:

Read MoreCooking using both limbs for more than 10 minutes straight is a thing of the past for me. Unless I am cooking when Lottie is sleeping (which is generally never around a meal time or close to – who invented babies?), I have no hope of cooking an extravagant meal, let alone enjoying cooking like I used to. That’s ok though, I don’t have time to eat a hot meal these days anyway so what would be the point?
Read MoreDear Mum,
If I could tell you what I am thinking this is what I would say.
You don’t like your teeth so you hide them when you smile to people we don’t know. When you smile properly that makes me feel happy because I know that everything is ok. I love your teeth just the way they are.
Read MoreFlying with a baby. We all have experienced this whether as a mother, or an innocent passenger seated at the window barricaded by an anxious travelling mess who is restraining her little excitable jack in the box on her lap. Contrary to the popular saying, it is absolutely not the journey but rather the destination when it comes to infants in the air.
Read MoreThe Hapu Cleanse is unlike any other cleanse I have used before. It is free, produces amazing results (a healthy baby) and all it takes is two to tango. Let me take you through my journey with this product.
Read MoreDear Gordon,
I have been “brewing” about how you left me fearing following my first proper night out since conceiving Lottie 18 months ago…
Read MoreDon’t we all know the feeling when you wake up and things are a bit off? Perhaps you are missing a sock, your favourite coffee cup smashes or you can’t remember the password to any of your accounts. And, more often than not, these days do not get any better. In fact, in my experience they get far worse.
Read MoreMy standard day these days is a hell of a lot different to what it used to be. In my previous life as a solicitor, I would be up by 6.00am to head to the gym or complete an at home workout.
