27.11 favourite recipes

Yesterday I recieved a request to share some of my favourite baking recipes on the blog,
I’m on a real baking kick at the moment, and I’m more than happy to oblidge! Most of the recipes I use, are ones found online, so I’ve created a list of links so you can browse at your leisure. Enjoy!

Flapjacks are so simple to make, and always a crowd pleasure. The thing I love most about making these is you can swap the dried fruit and nuts for anything your heart desires.

I made these lemon fairy cakes for my end of college picnic, instead of the suggested garnish, I used a daisy cutter to make shapes from fondant, and piped pink icing to make a summery decoration.

These oat biscuits could not be easier. I added in a 45g bag of M&Ms for a colourful treat

Rice Krispy treats are super more-ish and sticky, good fun to make.

Photobucket

What are your favourite recipes?
These are only a teeeeeeny selection of what I love to make, and I have stacks more recipes to try out soon…but a few more won’t hurt 😉

I’ll be back tomorrow with an outfit post!

Mid-week brings more miserable weather and a couple of mediocre outfits from me,
my cold, which seemed to be on its way out has ramped up a notch and I haven’t felt like doing much at all.

Yesterday I wore:

23.11 quick outfit post

Happy Monday!
I promise to do my next tag/award soon, still not feeling 100% and am lacking concentration.
I am also soaked through after getting caught in yet another torrential downpour making my way back from the doctors…
I thought I was doing pretty well and was just thinking how lucky I was to have escaped the vile weather (serious winds and rain) when the heavens openened.

So, quick outfit post. Basically a repeat outfit, but with a new pair of leggings with stud detail down the sides.

Not the best of pictures, as the light here is terrible right now. I also now look a thousand times worse,
with dripping hair, and the leggings have been replaced with sweat pants whilst they dry out!

Have a great start to the week!

22.11 tag catch up

I hope everyone is having a great weekend,
please excuse lack of outfit posts; I’m sick and therefore slobbing around in nothing exciting/post worthy! Hopefully tomorrow, or Tuesday I’ll feel like donning something other than jogging bottoms or PJs!

I’ve been tagged a couple of times over the last week or so, and I’m finally getting around to catching up.
Firstly, toothfairy tagged me to reveal 10 beauty facts about myself.

1. I don’t have a skin care routine as such, it depends how lazy I feel from day to day.

2. My skin care staples include Tesco vitamin E facial wipes (at 26p per pack, and currently 3 for 2, these are a total bargain) and Kate Logan Beauty products, especially the borage cleansing oil and the borage and calendula skin balm.

3. I am addicted to eyeshadow, and am a bit of a snob as I only use MAC. However, personally, I’d rather pay more for an eyeshadow and get great payoff, and have it last longer, than have to buy several cheaper equivalents.

4. I find it impossibly hard to find a foundation light enough for my skin. I am currently favouring Babara Daley’s range for Tesco.

5. I’m hopeless at little things like painting my nails.

6. I hate hate hate my hair, but hate having it played with even more. I am in desperate need of a haircut and WILL be booking one soon!

7. I’m a lipbalm junkie.

8. My day to day lipstick is Angel, by MAC for the perfect subtle pink sheen.

9. I’m insanely attracted to anything sparkly and own about 12 glitter eyeliners.

10. My favourite perfumes are Anais Anais, and Daisy by Marc Jacobs.

As always, I don’t know who to tag, so if you fancy doing this, then be my guest

Ok,
my concentration is waning,
I’ll do my next tag tomorrow 🙂
