Expedia World on a Plate
I was recently asked if I would be interested in taking part in a cookery challenge with Expedia. Called ‘World on a plate’, the project involved creating culinary delights based around the cuisine of a given European location. I was given Malta – a place that I have visited in the past and totally fell in love with. Malta is a small Mediterranean island with a interesting cuisine that seems to take it’s influences from both nearby Italy, with oily seafood and salads, and also Middle Eastern dishes, including Pastizzi Tal Pizelli, which is a sort of mushy peas pasty, and also comes in a variety filled with Ricotta cheese.…

Female Hair Loss – Another taboo subject
Like most women, I am a little vain when it comes to my hair. I keep it long, colour it a lighter shade of blonde on a regular basis, and generally swing and toss it about as much as possible for effect. I really can’t begin to understand how it would feel like to lose my hair – I know I would be devastated. And yet, this is more common that we think…or at least talk about. Female hair loss can be caused by a whole host of reasons. Hair can thin and fall out during pregnancy, through stress and trauma, or through Alopecia. Sometimes hair falls out and then…

Daisy Ridley – new star (wars) style icon
You may not be familiar with the name Daisy Ridley yet, but give it a week and this is going to be the girl that everyone is talking about. Daisy is, of course, one of the stars of the movie that is already breaking box office records everywhere – ‘Star Wars – The Force Awakens’, playing Rey, who is described intriguingly as ” a resilient survivor, a scavenger toughened by a lifetime of dealing with the cutthroats of the harsh desert world of Jakku.” But even if Star Wars is not your thing, Daisy has been impressing in areas other than great acting. In short, she is a red carpet…
