We’ve toured Climate Pledge Arena twice now, and it turns out it’s more than a hockey arena! My sister didn’t visit the US between 1998 and 2022, and when we finally got her out here, we took her straight from an 11-hour flight to a Kraken game and created a hockey-loving monster. She’s been back every six months since, so we’ve done most of the usual touristy things. The CPA tours have been a favourite…
Sorry not sorry for even more sky photos in your timeline. I took the last photo lying down in my driveway at midnight wearing my pj’s. I really hope the neighbours didn’t see me. #northernlights #auroraborealis #seattleblogger #basicbitchonabandwagon
A few weekends ago, I jumped in my car and did my longest solo drive up to Blaine, WA to join other members of @creatorscollectiveseattle for a weekend retreat at the gorgeous @semiahmooretreat. I have to admit, I was a little nervous (you’ll probably recognise this now as an ongoing theme with me going to these sort of events!) but I had a lot of fun! Blaine is where the border crossing into Canada is…
I was looking up books about influencers on my Libby app to borrow from my local library and found this book. By the end of the first chapter, I had ordered the physical book because I was finding it so interesting and knew it was one to add to my collection. The book explains some stuff around the industry from the point of view of British influencers, and the author went so far as to…
??? My husband takes ice very seriously, and so does Ginny ? When we were negotiating to buy our house from the builder, we asked for an ice maker to be installed. The builder offered an ice maker from their preferred brand, and this started a collection of emails about the right kind of ice for cocktails, which is why we have a nugget ice maker. (It’s pretty great, although it’s terrible to clean!)…
New blog post! The latest mystery box of clothes I tried out was @trunkclub by @nordstrom – I was happily surprised by the choices sent and kept a few items! What clothing style services should I check out next?
This week we were transported to a magical world under a big top … in Marymoor Park. Surprisingly after living here for a few years (and living so close to Marymoor now!), I had never actually been to any other part of the park besides the dog park, but I’ve been watching the big top going up over the last week or so. To carry on with the theme of new things, I had never…
Over on my blog ceriselle.org, I shared some details about the @universalstandard mystery boxes that I bought. I was really pleased with the items I received – if you’d like to see my thoughts on the individual items, you can also check out the US Mystery highlight on my profile.
Achievement unlocked: this week, the first podcast episode I have ever been on was released! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀If you don't already listen to @shipshapebf's podcast, Non Native, then you should get on that right now! It shares conversations with women who don't live in their country of origin. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀If you'd like to listen, the link is on my links page (link in bio) (how many times can you say link in one sentence?!) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀(Very old pic from…

New post on the blog – just a little update. It’s nice to be blogging about nothing specific again, I can fully recommend it!
A new laptop needed a new bag. Unfortunately (no it isn’t), Alex bought me the new 16″ MacBook Pro before Christmas which meant it didn’t fit into my @dagnedover bag so well so I was on the hunt for a laptop bag that wasn’t ugly but that could fit this beasty thing! I found @glassladderco who have some gorgeous vegan leather bags and the Hepburn was just right! I had a few problems with the…
