However, this probably means that you haven't suffered social anxiety or agoraphobia before (I envy you so bad); that's cool, this post might still give you some ideas in regards to getting your next caffeine fix. I bloody [...]

A Shout Out To Saint Kitchen: Thanks For The Consistently Lovely Coffee + Brunch

I have lived just off St Paul's Square in the JQ for over 4 years now, and there has been a friend on the square, with whom I've become very attached. Saint Kitchen has had a couple of makeovers since I arrived in the area, and has got better and better each year. It now [...]

Hey hey hey! I’m Still Here. Just About…

So I thought I'd do an update on here (I almost said "super-quick update" but, lol) as it's been a while. Life is currently a bit overwhelming, so I kinda feel like I'm out of breath as I write this (imagine I'm on the phone, walking up a hill, but, the motivation of there being [...]

Spring Cocktails At Tom’s Kitchen Brum and a Fond Farewell…

I was lucky enough to be invited to try the Spring cocktail menu at Tom's Kitchen in The Mailbox in Brum; obviously I said yes immediately, and apologised to my liver and blood sugars in advance. I'm actually writing up this review at the start of being sober for the foreseeable future due to health [...]

A Dreamy Date Night In Don Diego

A Dreamy Date Night In Don Diego

Snuggled into a little row of shops in Edgbaston, opposite the White Swan Pub, sits Don Diego; a restaurant run by two brothers, serving up fresh homestyle food full of Mediterranean flavour. I visited on a Saturday night with my husband Marv; we were lucky enough to share a table and have a double date [...]

Hey

profile picture with Rex

I’m Fay; a writer + illustrator from Birmingham, who currently resides in Bristol. I’m also a mom (that’s how we say it in Brum) of a 28-weeker, called Rex. We spent 10 weeks in NICU, and I’ve plenty to share about being a preemie mama. I write other people’s content for a living, so I felt like giving myself an outlet where I could discuss my own shiz.

I’m a pescatarian, cruelty-free skincare addict, with Type 1 diabetes and Graves’ disease. These do not limit what I can enjoy; they only affect the thought process beforehand.

Stick around if you fancy reading about my experience with motherhood, food + coffee, mental + physical health challenges, and what’s happening in my life. I also film YouTube videos and take plenty of pictures. I’ll try not to waffle on at you (I realise I have failed already. Mmm waffles).

I love a bunny emoji, peace x
