Baker Street Cakes – a review
Located on Francis St this is one of my favourite cafés in Leicester! Calling it a café is probably not correct actually, this is most definitely cake shop! In fact it is a macaron and cake boutique and it is as wonderful as it sounds! This is a tiny little shop, on the lovely […]

Last Friday @ LCB depot
On Friday evening I went to ‘Last Friday’ which is an event held on the last Friday of each month at LCB depot, close to the Curve Theatre. There are street food stalls in the courtyard, as well as a bars, cocktails and music/art and as their website says ‘vibes’. It is open from 4pm […]

Plastic free product review…
As you will know by now I’m a big supporter of the plastic free movement and I’m trying to cut down on how much single use plastic I use! Plastic pollution is a huge problem and our attitude to this material really need to change, and fast! Humans use an unsustainable amount of non biodegradable […]

House hunting can be stressful and bewildering, but if you get it right you’ll have a much better year next year!!

SET: appreciation of one particular shop in Leicester
You’ve probably noticed the reoccurring theme that I tend to try and fit far too much into each week and am stressed most of the time! Last week, amidst the blur of deadlines, I went Christmas shopping (mostly just to convince myself that I was organised in at least one aspect of my life). Now […]

Abbey Park Fireworks
Bonfire night is one of my favourite times of year! That’s not an exaggeration I get massively over excited about fireworks (I think the people I was with found my reactions more entertaining than the fireworks themselves) and this year I managed to get to two firework displays over the weekend! One of the […]
City of Stars: A Home Away From Home
Happy (slightly belated) 2017 everyone! I love January because it always seems like everyone is in a transition period, still recovering from finishing the previous year. I am pretty sure I will be on the same boat with everyone and still spelling the year wrong for a few weeks yet! With Refresher’s fair […]
