Woah, how did we get to the end of the month again already?! August has been a particularly hectic one in my corner of the world, with a huge project at work resulting in early starts, late evenings and even a few Saturday’s consulting the community as well. September isn’t looking much better, so I think I’ll need a break when it’s all over! I still found time for some fun though – so here are my August favourites!
With the weather starting to warm up we often start to think about doing a big spring clean to refresh our homes now that winter has passed. This usually starts with our wardrobes (donating lots to op-shops I hope!) and includes things like our garages and gutters, but there are tasks that lots of us seem to forget to put on the list. So, today I thought I would share my top 7 often forgotten spring cleaning tasks and I’d love to hear yours as well!
I’ve only made jam a couple of times in my life because I find the whole process a little time consuming, not to mention all the sugar it tends to use! I’d seen lots of talk of chia jam around and thought it was about time I tried some for myself, and it was so quick & easy as well as delicious! I highly recommend you giving my rhubarb & strawberry chia jam a try, you won’t regret it!
Like many people I jumped on the podcast bandwagon during the time of Serial, and since then I have added many more podcasts to my rotation. I listen to podcasts pretty much all the time, I find them an excellent distraction while I’m cooking, cleaning or working on the blog, and also while I’m walking to work. There are podcasts out there covering pretty much every topic imaginable, but here are my current top 6 podcasts to make any activity fun!
A little while back I shared a post on simple ways to brighten your week which got a lovely response from you all, so I thought I would share more of those kinds of posts – starting with this one! No matter how you feel about mornings there are lots of little changes that can make them more enjoyable, and help you start the day on the right foot. I’m generally pretty good in the mornings, so here are my 6 simple ways to improve your morning!
