If you read my post from Feb 21st ( You didn't? you can here!) You'll know that I've been an advocate of soap nuts (or, tiger nuts, if...

Life is busy right now. Its that time of year where my job is on my mind 24-7, and I'm dashing about from landlord to landlord,...

I mean, it is, but it's not about books or homesteading or writing. I've had a bit of a whirlwind week and not had time to think about...

Remember I said I was a fast reader? I picked up The sun is also a star - and didn't put it down until I finished it, only two hours...

My mum is a bit of a gardener. She's always out in the greenhouse, 'pottering about' with seedlings and plants, or helping my grandad...
