Lifestyle: The Colour Run

Last weekend in Birmingham was The Color Run. If you know me well you would no I'm not usually one for exercise and I only run when I have no choice. 

The most I do is go to a padfit class weekly which does not exercise your body the way running does.

The Color Run however caught my eye, having paint thrown at you while running seemed far more enjoyable than running in general, plus you could raise money for charity whilst doing so.

We booked to take part quite late so I opted not to raise any money, next time when we book earlier I will definitely choose a charity and raise some money.

Beauty: Boots Freebie

While I was in Boots browsing a few weekends back now they were having a raffle on for Macmillan cancer. I love a good raffle but I never win but of course I still had to have a go. This time was not an exception and again I did not win. The kind Boots lady seeing that I had lost offered me one of their Christmas bags, which I gratefully accepted!

Kylie Cosmetics: Posie K Gloss

I've had a couple of purchases from Kylie Cosmetics recently much to the dismay of my bank account! One of my orders I've had a bit of a mare with and it's taken ages to get delivered! Not been a happy bunny and usps tracking is so slow!

Anyway one of the two orders that has arrived is my Posie K gloss.

I'm not much of a gloss girl often preferring the Matte Lip but as I love the colour of Posie K so much I figured I had to give it a go.

Lifestyle: My First Attempt at Dairy Free Pesto

As I am trying to eat less dairy in my diet I decided to to attempt cooking some dairy free versions of foods that I love that contain milk products. I am a huge fan of pesto especially on pasta so I thought I would see if the dairy free version was just as good! This would be my first attempt at cooking Dairy Free Pesto and at cooking pesto in general.

So its not as blended as it could be (lets blame the blender for that) and at first I thought I had added far too much garlic and that it was going to be a disaster! Thankfully it turned out really well and went nicely with the courgetti (courgettes as spaghetti surprisingly nice!) I had for my tea.
