May, you have been so hot! Now we are growing vegetables, we really notice when it doesn’t rain and it’s been super dry these last few months. If it can rain at night and be sunny in the day, that would be super. Thanks weather!


If you haven’t heard I’m taking over Ninja Book Swap from Bex, who is stepping aside to spend more time on her subscription box business. Please re-follow @NinjaBookSwap to keep updated and the next swap will be in October (sign ups in September).

June is holiday month! Since we’ve got Scully now we’re going up to the Lake District and then visiting my parents in the Scottish Borders. The blog will be a little quiet, but I have a few things scheduled to keep it ticking over. Follow me on Instagram for Scully on Tour photos!

Here’s what made it onto the blog…
