Snapshots and Sugarsnaps

 It is typical nowadays to take photos before leaving ones house. Always eager to enter into tradition, Jack and I posed for a few of our own snapshots in my room. The hour was roughly 7pm on a Saturday evening. The night was young.

That was Saturday, but this is Sunday and Sunday means preparing ones lunch for the next day ahead. I thought I'd use this space to share my current favourite foods/snacks/beverages.
Hydrating myself has not always come naturally to me. I have to remind myself to drink water and teas but find this easier now because of my zesty blood orange tea! Plus blood orange is such a fun work to say!
Love snacking? Then why not try these delicious sugar snap peas!? They are a little pricy but worth it as these sweet, crunchy little pods will keep you full without spiking sugar levels. Plus theyre green so they must be good.
Contrary to green goodness is number 3 the Smarties yogurt. This is an evening treat where creamy yogurt and mini smarties transport you away. The energy spike that hits me straight after this delight comes just before my bedtime. For roughly 30 minutes I'm bouncing off the walls. This is followed by an exhaustion so great that I'm asleep as soon as my head hits that pillow

Feeding the birds

This book tells you why each day is significant in mythology, history or nature. A small explanation of the goddess associated with this day is a way to enhance our wisdom of such tales and encourage more magic and awareness into our lives.

A small activity encourages spiritual awareness and todays activity took me to my local homebase pond to feed the ducks. This was the passage:

To encourage peace: Take a piece of bread outside, breaking it into small bits so the birds can carry your wish of harmony across the earth.

I used to feed the birds in Peter Pan pond when I was young and I’d forgotten how rewarding it actually feels. The birds were clearly very hungry and all came swimming towards me as I flung bits of bread into the cold water below. I know I should’ve only brought brown bread really but we had this French baton so I thought it was better than nothing. They seemed to enjoy it!

frnkiero andthe cellabration

It’s been a while since I’ve discovered any new music that I’ve really enjoyed. In 2014 I was very into Jack White’s ‘Lazaretto’ album and continued with old band preferences such as ‘Billy Talent’ and ‘The Used’ but no new band had emerged and made me think wow. That wow has happened again though in the form of ‘Frnkiero and the cellabration’. I missed a good opportunity of seeing Frank and band at ‘The Water Rats’ in London (Discovered it after tickets were sold out) but they may return and in the mean time I have the album to enjoy.
