This month I took Elizabeth’s challenge. to Blog everyday in November (BEDN). I was reluctant at first as this is a very busy period for me and I wasn’t sure I can blog everyday. In fact I had to skip 2 days, but, as a whole, I would say it went great. I liked this […]
The Blog everyday in November challenge is almost over and I think I did pretty good, except for a couple of days when I was too busy to blog. I will write more about it tomorrow, in a roundup. Today the theme is Christmas and I want to share my blogging schedule for December and […]
I like seeing new towns and Derby was on my list for a while now. Hubby and I stopped there on a longer trip and we walked around. The town is beautiful. It has a lot of history and there are lots of things to see, but we were only passing through. Derby has catacombs, […]
Today marks the day I arrived as an expat in UK with a tired hubby from an almost 2,000 mile drive, our tired dog and a fully loaded car. It happened 4 years ago. I had no idea how my life would be like and it was the first time I’ve step foot on British […]

Yesterday I didn’t blog and I’m sorry I missed a topic on the blog everyday in November challenge. But today’s topic is Healthy Living. This is an important subject for me and I want to share my ideas. Healthy Living: Food We all know the things we eat can and most likely will affect our […]
Sudbury Hall is a lovely manor house, closed in winter for conservation purposes. But the Hall houses the National Trust Museum of Childhood in the servants’ wing. It was open to the public when we visited it last week. The Museum of Childhood is a delight for all ages. We found it fascinating and there […]
I don’t blog about beauty as I don’t think I have a lot to say about it. As today the topic for Blog everyday in November is “Beauty”, I thought this is the perfect opportunity to share my easy, cheap, home-made coffee body scrub. Years ago I saw that a celebrity was making a face […]
