Moderation is the Key

Often when a new year starts we all jump feet first into one fad diet after another and after maybe 3 weeks of barely eating the cravings overwhelm us and we end up gorging on junk food until we are right back at square one.

I saw this picture on Tumblr and it really stuck with me.


It makes so much sense really when you think about it, neither of the extremes of eating can ever really be good for our bodies and what is the point of food if you can't enjoy what you're eating along the way?

This links nicely to one of my January goals which was to home cook as many meals as possible. I have decided that instead of ordering a pizza when i get the craving, to try and make one at home instead, that way i can control what goes into it, omitting any unhealthy preservatives and still enjoy some tomato-ey cheesy goodness.

I have already started this idea, i found the inspiration on pinterest here




and here is what i made



okay so it doesn't look amazing but it tasted fantastic and i made every aspect of it apart from growing the veg myself so i think it was a pretty good start to home cooking my meals.

I have a pinterest board where i am collecting healthy dinner recipes and i would love some reccomendations Do you have any healthy versions of junk food for me to try?

Today is a super special day!

Guys today is a super special day my little itty bitty baby sister Alice
 turns 18 Today! 
officially a grown up!



apart from the fact that it makes me feel a bit old, i am so proud of her and all that she does.

Because let me tell you my sister is talented! not only does she have a super cute blog 

But she also makes her own jewelry and is starting her own store!


She is an amazing artist






She is a wonderful photographer





She makes AWHSOME cakes



Designed my tattoo

Just after it was done! hence scabbyness


She is also incredibly intelligent and will most likely end up at Oxford or Cambridge studying something ridiculously complicated like paeleoanthropology (i can't even spell it!!)

and is just an all round AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL TALENTED bisnitch!!!




Also when she was younger she posed like a BOSS

and i hid behind her!


We don't have as many pictures together as we should so here is the best i found!

Yes neither of us are looking because we epicly suck at having photos taken of us! and Yes i am drinking in a park, it's not trampy if it is in summer and YES this was obviously taken in the future when my sister is allowed to drink ;)


Hope you enjoyed all the embarrassing LOVE alice! 

Wish i could be with you on your BIG day!
