Pink Opal Pandora Ring and Veggie Carnation Jelly Attemp

 

 I've been meaning to blog about this ring for yonks, but kept forgetting, even though I admire it everyday and never want to take it off :)

This for my first Pandora piece and before Christmas when I purchased it I had a lot of trouble trying to find somewhere with stock in my size (I'm a Size K or 50, both mean the same thing).

I was able to get my size though from Hugh Rice where one of their assistants ordered the ring directly from Pandora for me :)

So one day when I arrived home from work to find it had arrived I was overjoyed and it was definitely worth waiting for.

 I'd always fancied an opal as it is the stone of my birth sign, however I could never find anything I thought to be special enough and most opals tend to be white and as a Libra I'm a hopeless romantic and I read pink opals are meant to bring love.

I paid £35 for this ring and I'm so glad I did, although I do want to buy some rings to stack with it now though, maybe one day soon ;)

On a different note I have just stuffed my face with what was meant to be milky jelly, however it turned out to be more of a mousse :/ Tasted nice though :)

I'm a vegetarian and have been since I was 12, and as a kid my mum always made milky/carnation jelly, but since turning veggie I haven't had any :( due to the jelly containing gelatine.

Finding vegetarian jelly is a bit of a pain, and when you find the little powdered packets it doesn't gel as much as the gelatine based jellies.

I came about craving milky jelly when  I was drooling though my favourite cookery book the other day 'Sophie Dahl's Voluptuous Delights' and I saw her recipe for Carnation Jelly I had to attempt at making my childhood desert.

However mine didn't go to plan, and as I mentioned it turned out more moussey than jelly and bouncy like, though on the bright-side it was lovely and I now have a little recipe for mousse.

I think in future I will add some argar-argar which is a veggie gelatine substitute and we shall see what happens, lots of experimenting get on with :)

Thanks for reading lovelies :) x

Food Post: Banoffee Pie

Hi everyone, I haven't bought much makeup lately even thought I do have some from before I need to post about, but tonight I thought I'd post about something else that I really Love. Food!

I made a very simple Banoffee Pie. I got the recipe from HERE. It's very easy to make, and you don't need all these weird ingredients for it either.

So here's my take on it.


I did try to take it out of the tray tidily, but failed,lol, it might look messy, but it is very yummy, if you like sickly food that is :)

So that's my first post on food. :)


Also, I'm thinking of going a lighter red, possibly the red/blonde colour (below) , so it doesn't make my scalp so noticeable with my hair loss. I always have to make sure I have no blonde roots, because the contrast of my bright white scalp and dark red hair makes it quite noticeable.
You can buy this colour from Superdrug if your interested.(Pic taken from superdrug site)
I'm hopefully going to speak to a new doctor tomorrow about my hair loss, and I'm going to as if a thing called Adrenal Fatigue could be the cause of it.

I was speaking to a lady the other day that lost some of her hair, and it turned out that she was suffering from this. I took a look at the symptoms and seem to have most of them, even the putting weight on the waist symptom :( but it could be from eating too much pudding,lol.

Sorry if my health issues are boring to read about, but it is sort of the reason for a lack of posting, and crap waffling posts too.

Anyway I hope you're all having a good evening, I'm off to eat my banoffee pie now ;)
