Ever wanted to have a piece of jewellery made just for you? I thought that was the kind of thing only the Queen could afford, turns out I was wrong. Meadowlark is a New Zealand jewellery brand that hand makes their jewellery, and you can order pieces to be made on their website. You select your size, preferred metal, and stone if applicable. I absolutely love the rings, can’t wait to start my own little bespoke jewellery collection. Take a look here.
I was recently in New York on holiday, where I somehow managed to spend a large amount of my time eating. One of the first places I visited was the Hershey’s shop in time square. it is huge, and you get free chocolate at the door, so I was immediately impressed. My favourite purchase was these 2 pound cups of Reece’s peanut butter cups, I had no idea they even came in that size. They are wildly gluttonous and I could feel my double chin coming on as I was eating one, but it was worth it- absolutely delicious. Next time you are in America try and track one down, they are well worth it!

I had my first Cronut this week, as I live in Sydney I couldn’t get a real Cronut so had to settle for a Zonut from Adriana Zumbo. This is similar to a Cronut, but also had a layer of creamy praline in the middle. It was worth every single calorie, so make it your mission to hunt a Cronut down this week, and spoil yourself!

A girlfriend at work had her birthday last week, and instead of flowers her girl mates bought her a box of cake pops. What are cake pops you are wondering? They are delicious balls of rich cake coated in thick chocolate. They are small and rich, but not too much sweetness. They are absolutely delicious, if you want to try making them use this recipe, otherwise send your friends some cake pops next time you need to send a gift!
