    Firstly, merry Christmas. I hope the big man in a red suit brought you everything your hearts desired. I’m still feeling in the giving mood today so stay with me here.

    With another year under my belt with this little blog, there have been many photos posted on here and on Instagram. But, let’s face it, you only see the best of the best (well, the best of a bad bunch) because I want you to see everything in a not-so disgusting light. So when I am eventually being normal you get to see that side of me. I thought it would be HI-larious of me to share some outtakes of the year. To be honest, you see a real serious side of me in my blog posts but truth be told, I’m never happier than sounding/looking like an idiot, making jokes and generally just having a LOL a minute at myself. So, let’s have a good ol’ laugh at my expense, seeing as it’s the season of goodwill and all that.

    As I currently sit getting lovedrunk on a tub of celebrations it’s got me thinking about how far this blog has come this year. 2016 was the year I really wanted to ramp up the blog. And whilst I’m no pro-blogger (& slightly fell off that wagon in August / September) I know hand on heart I worked very hard to get to a point where I feel the content I’m creating is where I want to be. I’ve spoken a lot this year about doing “my own thing” and finding my own style, which I really honed the last few months of this year. People compliment me on my Instagram and how it doesn’t fit the mould and I really like that.  I think we can all agree that sometimes you need your ego feeding (even if it is just a tiny compliment like that) to make you feel like you are achieving some sort of success.

    I turned 27 about 3 weeks ago (maybe a little more when this post goes live) and I never really acknowledged it. That being because I was on a sales training course in London and spent 2 hours of my life on a train back. We celebrated with a mucky macca’s in on a motorway service station with the dimmed lights on. I’m so rock & roll. I let it pass by really without a thought. But now as time is going on and I’m now royally in my “late twenties” I can’t help but reflect on what I have achieved and what I want from life.

    Gosh, I really do seem to be very up and down on my blog as of late. I’m finally getting to a really good place in life. My relationship just feels so wonderful at the moment, work is going really well and my mental health is on the incline after finally accepting and getting help. Despite all of the above I’ve been ever so quiet on Twitter and Instagram recently. It’s been really nice just living in the now and not having to work to too many deadlines or feeling like I need to be connected to world wide web all the time.

    ECCO PIZZA HALF METRE 3

    I’m an outright “pizza snob” and so is my husband. We have the most amazing pizza takeaway near us that whenever we go out we don’t even read the pizza section. That is until we were invited to Ecco Pizzeria, Leeds. We were so ready to try out their lip smackinginly, latest menu at their newest branch in Roundhay. It’s not that we don’t like pizza (hell, who doesn’t like pizza?) it’s just we have always found ourselves a little disappointed when we have chosen a pizza dish on many of our date nights. However, it was all about to change from hereon in. Praise the lord for Ecco!
