Nottingham Lush Christmas Event..

Hello guys! 

Yesterday I had the chance to go to the Christmas Lush Event in Nottingham. I am a big fan of Lush products and was dying to go, I am so glad I got the chance.

Every year, Lush bring out a line of products related to Halloween and Christmas and of course they had out some of their classics, such as "So White" and the good old "Penguin" (I love how they seem to have their own little personalities, with how different each one looks) ha! Along with the classics, they had also brought out some brand new products which got me very excited! So White has been one of my favourite bath bombs for a long time now and Lush now have the scent in shower gel form. I had to get my hands on it! Lord of Misrule and Yog-nog were some of my favourite scents from the event and the people of Lush kindly allowed me to have three products of my choice. I chose, Lord of Misrule, Northern Lights and the Yog-Nog soap. I cannot wait to use these bad boys.

Here are a few pictures from the night. I had such a brilliant time and met so many lovely bloggers. This was my first event and I was go glad I built up the courage to go. Bring on the next one!

Gluten Free Banana Muffins..

Hello guys!

I am back and with yet another gluten and dairy free recipe. This week I had tonnes of bananas just sitting in my kitchen not being eaten, so I decided to grab them and make muffins out of them (as you do). 

This was probably one of the fastest recipes I have ever done. Literally prepping and cooking within half an hour. BISH BASH BOSH!

Here are the yummy photos..

This recipe is one I adapted from allrecipes.co.uk, it serves 12.

200g Dove's gluten free flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
3 bananas
150g caster sugar
1 egg
75g melted butter

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees and line a muffin tray with muffin cases.
2. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt.
3. Mash the bananas and add sugar, egg and melted butter to them.
4. Fold in the flour till the mixture is smooth.
5. Spoon the mixture into the cases.
6. Cook in the oven for 20-25 minutes.
7. Enjoy.

What are your favourite type of muffins? 

Shake it Like a Polaroid Picture..

Hello guys!

I have moved into my uni house and after finally settling in and getting back in the swing of getting up to go uni, I couldn't be any happier. Living with my mates is such an awesome experience, even if that means endless pots in the kitchen that need to be washed...it is all fun and games :P

I have been browsing Pinterest recently, especially the uni room decorating boards. I spotted loads of different ways to hang and decorate your photos. One method I saw on there, was a bunting like way of hanging polaroids. It looked so pretty and I just had to recreate it.

Using the Polagram app on the iPhone, I bought several photos. Polagram is an amazing app. You simply buy the photos from your phone, so no internet jobby! You can either choose polaroids or normal sized photos for 29p each. They also do phone cases and photo albums on there which vary in price, but they would make great Christmas presents! (Thinking ahead ;) )

After these arrived, I bought a bunch of little pegs from ebay and attached them to string. Easy as that...job done. I have fairy lights in my room which I dangled behind the photos, so when I turn them on, all the photos illuminate, I love it! :) aha!

If you are lacking any decorating inspiration, go check Pinterest! I go on about this app all the time. If you want to follow me on Pinterest you can here.
