Doing product reviews and sharing things I love like or maybe even hate!

Hello Everyone,

Blogging has't been the top of my agenda for a long time because I'm at a lost of what to say or write about. Really. I also think my life isn't that interesting and the interesting things that happen to me tend to involve other people so I do feel it's not my place to share those.

However I've been thinking of how I can keep this going and make it interesting. Work has also been super busy as if you're read other blog post you'll realised I'm a chartered associate in a certain profession, I also work in a very small team, and the organisation has a £15 million turnover. It's a medium size but with extremely complex nature so no two days are the same.

My interests

Writing had taken a huge amount of my time because I'm working on my novel however I'm getting back into my non-writing interests and hobbies.  I do a fair bit of street photography on my phone since I like street art and there are some talented artists out there. The first two where taken on the way to work and last one was after a night out.





I also like cooking so I'll probably be sharing some very simple recipes here. I tend to throw things in the pan and see how they come out. I'm not a big ready meal or TV dinners person. The only convenience foods I really eat are breakfast cereals, breads and soups. I like Waitrose soups but I think they have changed the recipes so I've started making my own.

I'm also thinking of doing some Cordon Bleu Classes, so I'll share my experiences with you if I do. I was so excited when I discovered the school.  I've been walking past it for years and years and years and never knew - it's on a shortcut I take so my mind is never on the surrounds just getting to where I'm going. However yesterday, I just happened to look right instead of straight ahead and boom! There it was, so super excite that I may be taking some classes - well, cooking workshops. They are a bit expensive but I'll save and see.

I'll also start to review products - see if it's fun and then continue if it's something to do. I mean anything that crosses mind.

I'm fairly active on istagram and goodreads because I read Harlequin romances - I read three imprints. Goodreads is great place to engage with other readers.  I do this as a reader not writer! I've been reading Mills & Boon as a pre-teen so it's mostly habit, familiarity and I like the stories - the good, the bad and the ugly. It's a bit like watching a favourite soap opera or drama of different encounters.

That's it from me. So a bit of planning etc and maybe it will be back to blogging!

With Best Wishes

BD

Daily Writing Journal: Mo Money Challenge - week 8 which means £8 in the tin!

£8 in coins So I'm on my second week on saving and still not sure. I'm not feeling the pinch per se, but it's hard thinking how am I going to maintain this. So I managed to get a few coins out and gather some change, but at some point I'll really need to organise this. I've put in four fifty pence pieces with come up to two pounds sterling and the rest in pound coins.  Remember the money tin from last week. Well it all went inside that.... How am I feeling? Slightly bored but I still have a long way to go..... Saving money is boring, spending is more interesting.

My London Hood - The Tate Modern

Modern Gallery make you think of the world as it is today. I just wandered around the exhibitions in the Tate modern and  seemed focused on oppression of humanity - focusing on the poverty, wars, sexuality, violence, conflict, the underdog and gritty. This was a picture that captured my imagination because it looked so modern. This is a painting by German artist Christian Schad  called Agosta, the Pigeon-Chested Man, and Rasha, the Black Dove 1929 is a large portrait-orientated oil painting of two funfair performers.  https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/schad-agosta-the-pigeon-chested-man-and-rasha-the-black-dove-l02264  So in typically America-speak when I saw my people, I had to stop and take a picture, therefore homegirl, Rasha, the black dove is headlining my blog. In those days, I guess the only work she could get was as side-freak show but she is very beautiful, modernly so. It also made me think of what happened to all the black people or people of colour during Nazi Germ

Review of January 2018 - lost weight, socialised with others, completed my beta-read, doing my courses.

Hello everyone, Just checking in about my goals and life in general. It's all good. What went well. I took in packed lunches for at least four days a week. This was just hummus, sprouts, grated carrot sandwich. So very vegan.  I also cooked dinner a few times a night rather than eating junk food or takeaway. So a lot healthier. I finally have a social life of sorts. In my last job - it was work, home and see family on weekends. I was so drained and tired so this new job has made such a difference, that I can go out and meet people.  So I go out with some drinking mates once a week. It's a nice evening out of the house and away from social media or the internet. It's mostly small talk but its nice. I'm doing my photoshop course. That is coming along nicely, that picture is from one of my practice sessions. I'm doing a couple of writing courses which are intense. What hasn't gone well. I need to focus on having more routines, and breaking tasks
