How to modernise your home; bringing your home to the 2020s

While it’s easy to look back at the various decades that have passed now and point out the large trends that really defined them, people rarely take a step back and look at their home interior choices looking for similar patterns. Naturally, as you probably do yourself, we often just get on with things around the house, dismissing signs of the times like carpeted bathrooms, or cupboards built entirely around water heating units – If you’ve got either of those in your house, then you’ve probably got a new-build from the 90s too. While it’s easy to look back at the various decades that have passed now and point out the large trends that really defined them, people rarely take a step back and look at their home interior choices looking for similar patterns.

Awfully Posh Pork Scratchings | Snack Review

[Ad- gifted product] In our household, we really do snack often. I like to have a variety of snacks readily available for everyone to enjoy. Though we tend to stay away from processed goods, occasionally we do dip into more processed, delicious snacks as long as they are of good quality. The Awfully Posh pork scratchings fall under this category! They have two flavors; Sea Salt and Chilli & Garlic. Both are made with premium pork skin and are checked over to make sure the best of the best goes into the bag.

A Day Out at Gudetama the Lazy Egg x Artbox Cafe & Boutique

Earlier in the year, I went to the Pusheen x Artbox Cafe & Boutique and had a lovely time! There is nothing I love more than themed places and themed food. When Artbox announced the next theme was Gudetama the Lazy Egg, I was excited to get back down to Brighton and check it out! I actually went twice before writing this post as Dann surprised me with a weekend out in Brighton for my birthday and then I went along with Dann, Claire, and a few friends. Gudetama the Lazy Egg is a tired, exhausted, lazy egg that has a round bottom! He’s a funny character and his arrival came a quite interesting menu of savory food too!

Withings HR 36mm Rose Gold Watch | Review

[Ad- gifted product] I am not someone who always wears a watch. I always found that watches didn’t add enough to be worth it, but then I discovered the Withings smart watch. You see, smart watches are an entirely different breed of watch, they do so much more than normal watches. I went with the sleek Withings Steel HR 36mm Rose Gold White Dial Grey Silicone Wristband – a watch that has a big name that’s mainly description.

When it came to features, the Withings watch has a lot of them! When you look at the face, you can see the time, as well as a smaller dial on the bottom that shows how close you are to your steps goal. In the companion phone app, you are able to set up a steps goal which is then tracked on your watch. Your phone will send you little badges and congratulation messages when you’ve hit the goals. This is quite encouraging. On the top of the watch’s face, you can see a little black circle which, when pushing the button on the side, can cycle through all of the sets you have on your watch.
