Curly Hair, What's in There?: LaLaLab

Curly Hair, What's in There? is a segment that will explore the random topics that are always circling my mind, things I want to talk about or things I want to share.

LaLaLab

So, about a week ago a got an ad on my instagram feed. You know how sometimes you get ads but ignore them, sometimes you get ads that you click on and go through some of the pages of what they're selling, but decide it's too expensive, or you even get to the checkout, only to find the deal isn't what you thought it was? Well, LaLaLab is an ad that I do not regret clicking on.

I was intrigued by the idea of cheap photo prints; I think the ad was showing me the photostrips which are something I love, and having small, polaroid-style pictures around my room seemed like a nice way to decorate it; make me feel at home. So, I clicked on the link, uploaded some of my favourite pictures (to be honest I picked a lot from my boyfriend's visit because he'd literally just left Paris and I was feeling like I needed to see his face) and sorted them into the strips and small prints.

At this point is when I would see the price of my basket and abandon the endeavour. However, 34p for one small print was too good an offer to refuse, plus I managed to find a discount code which actually worked, and ended up paying only £4.99 (including postage!) for five photo strips and ten mini prints.

They all arrived yesterday, and honestly I'm so happy with them:

Another thing I loved about this is that they included an origami project of a heart, as well as a scratchcard for a free gift (I got a postcard) which, I think, Is really fun. Here are all my prints with the heart:

I'm going to stick these up on my wall and definitely claim my free postcard, and I expect I’ll buy some more prints too!

And you should get some too, if you use my code you can get yourself £5 off your first order (and get me a cheeky £5 off too)! Just go on the site or download the app, then type in PG3CENT4 at the checkout and enjoy your free prints.

Curly Cooks: Booboos

Since we're all stuck inside for lockdown, many people are currently baking to pass the time, including me! So, Curly Cooks is a series on the various items that I'm making while on lockdown, most of which will carry personal stories. Today's recipe is one I invented as a child: Booboos. Curly Cooks: Booboos Jump to recipe When I was younger, I used to enjoy watching my mum bake all manner of sweet treats for my brother and me. At maybe three years old, I decided to invent a recipe of my own, which ended up being named Booboos. Now as a three year old I obviously didn't understand the necessities and intricacies of baking, so I just wrote a bunch of random baking words that I knew and my mum interpreted it to create these biscuits. This is my original recipe card: Shocking penmanship and spelling I know, and a flawless method. If you can't read my handwriting (unsurprising tbh), it says Resapy for Boo...

Page to Screen: The Miseducation of Cameron Post

Page to Screen The Page to Screen series explores the cinematic adaptations of books and my criticisms of them, comparing the two works and reviewing them separately and as a whole. The Miseducation of Cameron Post 2012, Written by Emily Danforth 2018, Directed by Desiree Akhavan The book Source I recently finished reading this wonderful book and deliberately waited until I had finished it to watch the film, knowing the difference that there would be, and of course not wanting to spoil the end of the book for myself. Obviously, this post contains spoilers for The Miseducation of Cameron Post, both book and film. Written by Emily Danforth, The Miseducation of Cameron Post explores the upbringing of a young girl in Miles City, Montana (where Danforth herself is from) and how the actions she takes cause consequences for her future. The first half of the book goes through her early teen years, as she realises her homosexuality and learns about it, acting on ...
