2021–A New Start
2021 has been warm (a bit too warm for me--I'm not overly a summer person!) in the Bay of Plenty. I didn't stay up to see the end of 2020--I held it to its word that the year would see itself out. Saying 2020 was hard is inadequate and I wish I had something inspirational to expound on. 2019 ended on a strange note for me. I had gone back to the States for the first time in years and went on a FAM that had me looking up real estate prices in Montana. I was slammed with an unexpected sense ... Read More

Team Candy Corn Free SVG
I am 100% unashamedly Team Candy Corn. I love seeing those cheerful bags hit the shelves and I'm known for keeping a bowl full of them all season. Candy corn isn't available in New Zealand.

I picked up two bags while I was in Montana and carried it through my press trip and all of my flights to get it back to New Zealand. The candy corn wasn't pretty by the time I got ... Read More
Easy Blood-Splattered Tank Costume for Halloween
Halloween in New Zealand tends to be on the darker side--there's far more blood than cute.

This super easy blood-splattered tank is a fun way to go dark this Halloween without going overboard. This post contains affiliate links.

Candy Corn Pom Pom Wreath
Having Halloween in spring is such a weird thing to me. It's hard to feel properly spooky with pink flowers coming up everywhere. I decided, though, that candy corn was the perfect theme for a spring Halloween. It's bright, fun, and so very more-ish. No need to comment if you feel any other way! I made a super fun candy corn pom pom wreath as a cheerful Halloween decoration--we may not be able to get the actual candy here, but I can decorate based on it! This post contains affiliate ...
