GOALS REVISITED

Bonjorno. I'm back for an update! Now I know hearing about my thoroughly unexciting life may not tickle everyone's sister, but for those few that have a strange curiosity about the least interesting woman in the world (no Dos Equis for me), you're in luck? A question mark seemed to be the only appropriate punctuation there. I wrote a post about goals for the coming months back in June and some big changes have happened since then. It would feel strange not to tell you guys about any of them.

MEET ASH & KRISTOFFERSON!

Say hello to the two newest members of my fam jam! This is Ash (coco bear) and Kristofferson (vanilla bear). I'm in love. These two fellas came home with me two weeks ago. Unfortunately, as soon as Ash got back I realized something was wrong. I took him to the vet and it turned out he had a respiratory infection. He's spent the past couple of weeks on antibiotics and the boys had to be separated for the duration of that time.

THE MOST MAGICAL BOOK I EVER DID SEE

I wanted to tell you guys about a gift I was given. It's a colouring book, which I know sounds odd, but my goodness it's majestic. It's called Secret Garden: An Inky Treasure Hunt And Colouring Book. It's essentially a grown up version of the colouring books we had as kids. This one has thick, luxurious paper and a front cover that will make you want to “casually leave it lying on your coffee table” for appearances sake. Full of extremely intricate and beautiful designs, it makes you feel wonderfully childish and like a sophisticated adult all at once.

PASTEL TRAIL PRINT GIVEAWAY

I'm really happy to be coming to you guys with a lovely giveaway today! Pastel Trail contacted me and asked me if I'd be interested in giving away one of their beautiful art prints. A little background on Pastel Trail: they're an Etsy store that creates designs based on positivity towards life. That's something that I could use a healthy dose of these days so I told them I would be absolutely tickled to team up with them. I was a bit cheeky and asked if they would do a custom print for you guys – combining my favourite background and favourite quote. They kindly obliged and BOOM, that's what we've got here. So please, enter away if you desire.

7 MURDER MYSTERY SHOWS TO WATCH

I have gotten so into murder mystery shows in the past year. Who's with me?! There's something wonderfully captivating about them. I think it's because I love to guess what's going to happen and when I get it right I feel like I might secretly be a genius. You take what you can get when you're a college dropout. I'm particularly keen on English murder mysteries (again, because they make me feel clever and sophisticated), but I've seen some top notch American ones too. So for you lot out there that are as sick in the head as I am, here are some leads (yyyyeaaaahhhh).
