Good Morning Lovelies, 

January can often be a bleak month but having gone into 2024 with a fresh head, I feel like it is going to be a good year. Especially if it has such amazing things or happenings in it as January did. 

I won’t lie it was quite hard to pick some of my favourites. But here are just a few lovelies…

My Favourite Read - A Nursery Rhyme for Every Night of the Year by Allie Esiri: I love Allie’s books. For the past few years, I have enjoyed her poems a day books. This year,I’m delving back into nursery rhymes. It’s so interesting to discover the ones from my childhood again. Plus, the book also includes how they came to be, which has been super interesting.

My Favourite TV Show/Film - Bluey: I’m not afraid to say that I love this show a lot! I think it is really made for adults! Every episode has a message behind it, ones that only adults understand, making it super special and thought provoking! Plus, Bingo is my spirit animal!

My Favourite Food Find - Bonne Marman Peach Conserve: After getting this in my Christmas Day food stocking, I can’t wait to try it by spooning it on to my cereal, stirring it into the warm milk and watching it melt to add some flavour. You can see this has been made with real pieces of fruit. Plus, I imagine the flavour is going to be incredible. Getting this in my stocking was definitely a motivation to try something new.

My Favourite Beauty Item - DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom Perfume: In my Christmas present recapping, I spoke about my love for DKNY perfumes after my dad got me one before he passed away. My neighbour, Casey, brought me this one and it has become a staple in my every day beauty routine. The smell is making me excited for all the spring flowers.

My Favourite Podcast - Parenting Hell: I think it was the Christmas recapping episodes that did it for me. My love for this podcast grows more and more each week. I love hearing about what has happened to Rob and Josh every time they upload a new one. Although, I’m not sure if I will ever want to be a parent after hearing their stories.

My Favourite Experience - New Year: Oddly, even though it isn’t an experience, I’ve found entering a new year very refreshing. Me and my mum have set about cleaning up and making our house how we want it to be. I’ve started a new diary and just felt happier. My brother got the all clear from skin cancer and we have already started to make plans for next Christmas! I hope 2024 is going to be a good one! 

What were some of your favourite things from January lovelies? I would love to know!
