How have we already gone through February 2023? How are we nearly in March? I can’t seem to move without a month passing. Who else feels like this year is going super quick? It could be due to February being a shorter month, but it really just feels like this time has gone by fast. 

Luckily, I managed to make February a memorable one, with both good and bad elements. Mostly good though, especially when I conquered a big fear food for the first time in years. Did it make the list? Find out below…

My Favourite Book: Lessons In Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus - I had been wanting to read this for a long time, so finally getting round to it was a huge joy. It was completely not what I was expecting, but in a brilliant way. I loved the female empowerment that this book brought to life and the STEM theme too. 

My Favourite TV Show/Film: Love Island - Yes, I know it isn't the greatest show, but oddly I have found myself hooked in on this series. I want Will to win and will be voting for him a lot in the next few weeks.

My Favourite Food Find: Cornflakes - After a terrible holiday, I did get one good find from it. I have recently fallen in love with pancakes again! I know that might sound boring, but I love them and to beat my fear of them was a huge thing for me!

My Favourite Beauty Item: DKNY Be Delicious Golden - My amazing mum spread the love by buying me a new perfume. I am a sucker for a scent and the DKNY brand has a special place in my heart, as it was the first real perfume my dad brought me. Carrying on the tradition, she got me the Delicious smell to help complete my collection.

My Favourite Podcast: Parenting Hell - Many of you know how much I love this podcast and it just gets better and better. For me, I prefer the Tuesday episode, but I listen to all of them with strict concentration aha! I feel like I am being invited in for a coffee and a chat each week, which is lovely.

My Favourite Experience: Seeing My Family - During the half term holiday, my brother and nephew came to stay. I adore seeing them, as it is always fun, which is just what we needed after a stressful week before. I hate to moan, but we had a terrible time at Butlins, yet these two made us very happy!

What made your February special lovelies?
