0.1. If anyone knows me at all, they know that I am unnecessarily lazy. It's a curse! Oh how I wish I woke up with a burning desire to 

go running and then eat a mound of fresh veggies every morning, but alas, I am not. Further more, I have spent this past week eating 

ridiculous amounts of pizza, naan bread & curry, baking the cake from hell in the previous post,  drinking chocolate milkshakes after 

dinners, and so on. I mean, HELLO THIGHS! Sigh, these frivolous ways must stop!

0.2.  In other news, Jedd and I turned 2 years old 2 days ago, yay! Cue happy dance and balloons! Well, yesterday and the day before 

to be exact. We kinda disagree on the day so have decided to make it a 2 day affair. I love that man more than anything. ever. 

0.3. I was so happy to find myself on the lovely Kelli Murray's  blog! I'v been a fan of her outfits and illustrations for a while now. 

Thank you so much for the sweet words lovely!

0.4.  Someone recently commented and asked me to talk about shopping online and shipping to SA. Honestly, the majority of clothing I 

get online is sent from sponsors, who sort out the shipping themselves. South African post is incredibly frustrating and many of the 

things I have ordered often end up sitting in customs for ages, and twice have never turned up even though I know they arrived in the 

country!  The times I have bought stuff, the shipping and taxes have cost about double the cost of the item I bought. One thing I'd 

definitely recommend is to always choose the shipping method with a tracking number, and if possible choose DHL or Fedex, these 

methods are generally a bit more pricey but you get your parcel really fast and you don't need to pay taxes! I'm not too sure what else I 

should cover so if you have any more questions just leave me a comment and I'l try answer them as best I can! x
