For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.

First love is unrequited ultimately because it’s so huge.It’s such an act of giving and it requires so much back that it can never be given back. It’s like an atom bomb. It’s like… It’s all the energy of who you are and who you want to be and what you love and what you hope to be explodes. It is impossible for a single… human being to offer that back to you in a mutual way.
Liquid Lips - Emotional Brilliance These gorgeous colours are made with Rose Wax, Candelilla Wax & Jojoba Oil which makes them glide on smoothly & set without drying a little like a stain.
If you don’t want the colour too intense you can mix a little on the back of your hand with Ultrabalm (or other lip balm I love my Honey Trap!) for a more sheer glossy tint.
These colours are very long lasting only needing a top up if you’ve eaten or drunk a lot to wear it away. I wore Confident on Saturday for a wedding & it did not need to be reapplied until I had been wearing it for approximately seven hours. During that time I enjoyed canapes, bucks fizz, the wedding breakfast & smooching with Tris so the durability impressed me.

Teasday - Homecoming Tea
The tea I am writing about today is not a particular brand or blend. It is a wonderful, comforting, familiar beverage brewed for you by someone who cares for you upon your return home.
It doesn’t matter if the drink is stewed from sitting in the pot too long or if it has too much milk in it because it is a great big hug in a mug.
This simple ritual is one that has existed between myself & my parents for some time. When I return home & they are aware that my arrival is imminent there is always a cup waiting for me.
Having been working away for the past couple of weeks the homecoming tea I enjoyed today was amazing. I imagine my friend Katie had an even more phenomenal experience of this when she returned to the UK for a visit home after four months in NYC recently.
Every day millions of people without even thinking about it make or receive a cup of brown joy. When did you last have one?
