Curly Hair, Who Cares?


I've wanted to start a blog for a while. I never really knew what to do it about as I have so many ideas and thoughts in this crazy head of mine.
First I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Izzy, I'm a third-year MFL student at Aston University and I'm currently working in Paris for my placement. I'm a nerd, I love all things Disney, Marvel, musicals, you name it I'm probably into it. I'm a lover of fashion, music, reading, and above all, films.
This is me:

I decided that with this blog I would just post whatever came into my head, different sorts of things that interest me, some particular themes and sections. I read, and I watch a lot of movies, so I started out thinking I'd compare the books I'd read to film adaptations of them. While I will still do that on this blog, I also wanted to share insights into my life and my brain, as well as more general stuff like fashion and hair care tips (for you fellow curly-haired readers out there).

So, that's basically it. Keep checking back for more actual blogs, and in the meantime, follow for updates:

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...
