THIS AND THAT

FLOWERS FOR FRIDAYS

a lovely rose plant will always cheer me or anyone up

these soft pink roses so delicate , that and a interesting book, scented candles

make me happy during this lockdown.

SIMPLE DIY a Lovely room diffuser.

Now that we are in the 2nd full lockdown ,seeing how we will be stuck inside for awhile thought it is nice to have a room diffuser .

I decided to make one after reading a how to . So simple and easy . Now i am collecting bottles suitable to make more.

Finding the right type of bottle with a narrow opening , some bamboo sticks, essential oils , water and a carrier oil. It suggested one can use vodka as a carrier, the alcohol helps to dissipate the oil.

Surprisingly it worked.

CARRY ON BAKING

Yes that seems to have become a new hobby, baking. Something different then a banana loaf.

Two of my favourite thengs , chocolate and strawberries.

So voila, a cake for a weekend treat.

A Delicious Black Forest cake.

Flying high // travel

B Time to Fly Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience. So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada . And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines. I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned and I won’t be booking any trips with them! Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs that should be included , NOT an extra expense. Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees then read this report via BBC. Truthfully people need to tell these companies NO . Even a handbag is next to the list. They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

Sunny Days Eyewear//fashion , designer eyewear

T HE RIGHT ONEs Summer and the sun is something we all look forward to. Getting outside enjoying the sunshine but most important is to to protect your eyes! I have been looking for a new pair of sunglasses. Thinking I might get a pair of design ones, Chanel , Gucci ?? Well more importantly is to get a pair with a higher UV number . Apparently there is no difference from a designer pair or a pair from any shop . Other than the price.style or quality. Looking at and trying sunglasses checking fit is important . The style look and what suits you are all things to consider . The UV protection is what really matters also something I didn’t know was the side part of thin matters also. Why? If to thin UV rays can enter and effect your eyes. So the sides of sun glasse is something else to consider . Enjoy the sunshine ☀️
