That Friday feeling

It's Friday! And am frankly SHOCKED to see that it's been a month since I last posted. I have more stuff about Paris to share, and I never got around to talking properly about the gorgeous meal we had in Roots at the back end of last year. Poor little blog; it gets sadly neglected.

In exciting life news - I recently got a much longed for promotion at work and I couldn't be more pleased. I'm back working in an area that I love and where I think that I can make a real difference, plus early impressions are that I have a fabulously supportive and fun manager and team around me. I feel incredibly lucky at the moment - pinch-me lucky, that I have a well paid, secure job, a lovely home and can absorb the coming rises in the cost of living with very little pain. I know that there are people out there genuinely struggling at the moment and it's heart breaking. And let's not even start talking about the wider world situation. The fact that I don't necessarily discuss it or refer to it here does not mean that I am not very aware of my privilege.

So moving swiftly on...one thing I did want to share - if anyone out there was thinking of subscribing to a fruit and veg box, we've recently started using Oddbox and I wholeheartedly recommend it (to be clear, this is not a sponsored post, or a paid advertisement or anything like that - I just think they're lovely). We've had a couple of boxes now (we're signed up for a fortnightly subscription) and the quality of the produce is great, plus I absolutely adore the ethos that we're basically getting lovely fruit and veg that would be scrapped for no good reason other than it's a bit big / small / misshapen. Big thumbs up from us.

Hope all is well with everyone out in the bloggersphere and I PROMISE that I will be back with some posts soon; in the meantime, wishing everyone a very joyous weekend.

  1. Congratulations on the new job!! So good to hear from someone who enjoys their work and is positive about life at the mo! I'm also interested in the veg box scheme, our local ones seem a bit "worthy" so good to get a recommendation. Lxx
