This weekend I cooked pasta with tomato sauce. I sliced the onions (shallots actually, because I can’t stand the real deal stinging my eyes), slow cooked the tinned tomatoes with olive oil and oregano and threw in the fresh tagliatelle. There was some leftover roast chicken in the fridge. I pulled out the flesh from …
If someone would have told me that aged 40, I would be writing a blog post on how you can tell you’re actually not a fully-fledged, perfectly formed, been-there-got-the-tee grown-up, I would panic.

You know you’ve reached wellbeing nirvana status when you’re a step ahead of Gwyneth. You know, the Paltrow. That’s right. Well, that’s exactly what’s happening here, people. On a recent interview, a propos of her new GOOP shop opening in Notting Hill, she said a number of things that were extraordinarily sensible – shocking, …

Chocolate; Chocolate; Don’t catch a cold; Don’t let the kids catch a cold; Chocolate. Ah!

There really wasn’t time for a proper lunch and with the backstroke cheerleading and shower-get-dressed-let’s-get-home-quick-before-the-traffic-goes-nuts time has flown by. You’re famished. Alone in the bedroom …
Check this out everyone, it’s a nap cult gathering!!! I’m guessing that’s what they would say if someone took a peek through the window. Also ”What a bunch of wackos, some people have waaaay too much time on our hands, man”. It looks weird, I grant you. Welcome ladies to Re:Mind , London’s drop in …
Have you ever wondered what it feels like walking on clouds? Literally speaking, that is. Is it just like a big, thick fog, without the option to switch on the lights? Does it smell of cotton candy? Can you hear music? It would have to be Guns n’ Roses, right ( knock, knock, knocking on …

So I’m kickstarting my September stories with a list of feel good intentions! Do you love a list? I looove mine. I keep special notebooks just for them, with pretty pastel …
Kids summer holidays. We have migrated from London to Lisbon for the season and gosh I do love this city. Then there’s the chill factor, of course.
