The kitchen is one of the busiest rooms in the house and because it quickly becomes the heart of every home, kitchens become tired and worn out even quicker. If you’re wanting to update your kitchen then you don’t really have to do anything extreme – which is a bit of a relief for those of us who love to cook or have busy family lives: we can’t have the kitchen out of action for too long!

If you’re a vigilant follower of mine, you may have noticed a couple of weeks ago on my Instagram stories that I mentioned that I am now a car owner. Having passed my test over a year ago and soon starting a job that requires a car, it was very much a necessity purchase, hence why I am now the proud owner of a silver Ford Focus. It’s a very glamorous life I lead. As a car owner of just about a month, I’ve made a few changes and learned quite a few new things about what it means to own a car – something I thought I’d share!

Giving gifts to others can, and usually is, an amazing experience. An act of selflessness makes everyone feel better because it rarely is about the object that’s being gifted, but rather about the notion of giving. But there are times when a person needs to pamper themselves just a bit. Whether it’s a hard period in life or a reward for going through with something difficult, everyone deserves a little pick-me-up in life, especially if it’s from the self for the self.
