Economising Kitty

Image
An economic crisis can not and will not bring a good Kitty down. Think of all those hot kittens during last centurys' Great Depression. In order to survive a depression, recession or gobal financial crisis (they really all feel the same to me), I've selected a few daily items to help you live through these financially traumatic times in peak bombshell performance. Accessories - keep your handbags in dustbags and treat your leather well. Leathergoods (gloves, bags and shoes) should ALWAYS be of best quality. Shoes should be stored in shoe boxes and re-soled when new as to prolong their durabitily. Gloves must be kept grease-free, therefore aviod touch them as little as possible. These items will help get you through the tough times in great style. Skincare - Always use the best skincare you can afford. If you are really suffering with money just go for products like Nivea. Remember you can waste a LOT of money experimenting with new products so this is NOT a good time to try to...

Girl needs her sugar

Image
Recently I tried to eliminate sugar from my diet in an experimental attempt to lower my blood sugar. This is what I learned. To go sugar free, you need to be really tough and dedicated. Did you know there is a huge sub-culture of sugarless food people all sticking to a diet called Keto? These are people wanting to put their body into a state of ketosis. I think of ketosis, I think of bad breath. Something to be mindful of, halitosis is never glamorous (try and think of that whilst watching the Oscars. Those beauties barely ever eat sugar).

How can you go on a sugar free diet if you are a foodie?  I bought myself a couple of sugar free cookbooks. I will let you know how I go. Maybe even take photos of what I make. I like to live in hope that sugar free foods can be delicious. I m...

My rescue

Image
Can you believe I finally did it? Every time I take my daughter to dancing, and she does a LOT of dancing, I have to drive past the 'cat orphanage' and I always feel a longing to go in and adopt all those little unwanted fluff balls. Every single time. I was even brave enough once to venture into the 'orphanage' just so I could see the little babies with no home. I didn't leave happily. Never do. A few weeks ago, I went in again. Not a wise move. A huge litter of unwanted tabby babies had just arrived. I adopted one, much to my husbands annoyance.  He does seem to be coming around though and I would even go as far to say he likes the little fluffer. I mean, who wouldn't love this little fella? Monsieur Remegius McGonagle Coutts (aka Silky Boy) PS:  he is now 4 months and weighs 3.1kgs.
