Christmas Food Faves

At christmas i eat a lot more than i usually would and i have recently discovered the best yummy treats in the entire world..prepare yourself (unless you like hot chocolate and marshmallow topped chocolate prepare to be extremely underwhelmed)

 this hot chocolate is one of the best things ever made, it tastes like reeses cups in a liquid. i can't get enough of it and i've probably been drinking a few too many cups of this a day...it's amazing - you can get it from tesco and I don't actually think it's that expensive.

this chocolate, i have decided, is officially my best friend, i want to take it everywhere and eat it at every moment..ok thats weird, but i absolutley love it and you can get this from tesco too (if you can't already tell i practically live in tesco)

I know there's only two things that i've written about here but their my favourites, and i will soon have to give them up so that I can start my new years resolution (which is to get fit) ...we'll see how long that lasts

merry christmas: 100 years

merry christmas everyone! I hope you're all having a lovely day and enjoying being with your family, and your presents. 

this isn't exactly a cheery type post, more of an appreciation post. 

As most of you probably know this year has marked 100 years since the first world war, where many brave people lost their lives fighting for this country and other countries too. In November, around the time of the actual day of the 100 years, i visited France and Belgium to see my uncle George and my granddad Joe, who died in the first world war. 

i'm writing this to say thank you to them and to all the other men who lost their lives, if they hadn't of gone and fought our lives would be completely different and I'm really grateful. 

merry christmas granddad joe and uncle george and to everyone else who fought and are still fighting for us, you will always be remembered...

i hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and hope that everyone remembers the people who are less fortunate and have no family or anyone to share christmas with, or who have no home to be in.
God bless.



love dais xx




* I know this post isn't a very christmassy post so i may post again later on but i really think that this post was relevant and more thoughtful that showing you what gifts I got or posting a photo of a candle...

OH and happy birthday jesus! haha 

christmas eve

It's christmas eve! I'm so excited, even though i know (cover your eyes kids) that there's no father christmas with a dozen reindeer trying to fit down my non existent chimney I still feel the exact same about christmas as I used to when I was younger.

I've finished all my wrapping now and i've tidied my room (for once), i've lit 30 candles and i'm finally ready for christmas, on christmas eve i normally watch films with my family or, most years, get the last bits of christmas shopping done but this year i have been super organised and i'm ready!!

I hope you all have a lovely christmas eve and thank you for commenting lovely things on my other posts, it seriously makes me really happy haha!

favourite winter things

christmas and winter time is one of my favourite times of the year - it's all cosy and lit up, which i really enjoy, obviously candles are a must have at christmas time and i've really been liking  this one from yankee candle called 'snowflake cookie' it smells like something from soap and glory (I can't think of the exact scent but still)

this next thing isn't really christmas related but i have still really been liking cherry lips. i get mine from mr simms, they taste a bit like soap but in a nice way... (don't ask me how) but i still looove them.

 I have been loving these slippers from primark as well, they keep my feet so warm (kind of the point of slippers but....) and they are so cute with the little bow on the front and they have fur inside as well. I think they were only about 2/3 pounds which I think is fab

have you got any winter favourites?

Vintage Fayres

recently I visited a few vintage fayres, they were really cute and very vintage..some were a bit too vintage for me - it was like they had gone into their loft and brought down whatever was up there, basically some of it was complete rubbish. There were a few nice things there though! 

This was definitely one of my favourite things that were at the fayres. It was a crepe van and it sold crepes with lots of different flavours. I had nutella and mmarshmallowsand I honestly don't think I've ever tasted something as nice..it was amazing and i'm sort of wishing that i wake up one day with a serious crepe making skill just so that i can re create it.

Has anyone else been to any vintage fayres?
