It feels so bizarre to me that it's been over a year now since the world drastically changed. March 2021 was sort of an anniversary of the beginning of it all, not particularly one to celebrate though. I still struggle to get my head around what has happened over the past 12 months, it's just such a crazy thing to be living through.
March felt like it flew by for me, without really much going on! I don't know about you. We celebrated World Book Day by dressing up and going on a 'bear hunt' in our town, I had my first Covid vaccine and really absolutely horrendous, but only for 24 hours after, and we celebrated a low key, but super sweet Mother's Day together.
I'm so glad Spring has finally arrived too, even though it's still a bit chilly, the sun is shining, the days are longer and nature has come out in full bloom. Spring really is a beautiful time of year!
I wanted to share with you today, some things that I've loved over the past month.

Food & Drink
Creme Eggs
I can't lie and say I've only been enjoying this for the past month, Creme Eggs arrive in shops on Boxing Day now (Crazy right?) so it's safe to say, I've been enjoying them since Boxing Day. Haha! Possibly my absolute favourite chocolate of all time.
I like to try out a few new meals each month, just to give a new recipe a go and possibly find a new favourite!
Dublin Coddle
This Dublin Coddle recipe from Simply Scratch is one of my new favourites. It's real comfort food. With sausages, bacon and chunks of potato it's SO good! Plus it's a 'one pot meal' which is always a huge bonus and it's one you can just prepare, pop it in the oven and let it do it's thing - while it fills your home with delicious smells.
Books
Gratitude Journal
Clothing
I recently picked up this cute dress, secondhand and I love it. I cannot wait to wear it properly, but the weather needs to warm up first! It's cotton, has off the shoulder sleeves and it's yellow! My favourite colour!
It was originally from Next, but seeing as it was secondhand, I'm not sure from how long ago it was, but it's too cute. It's Midi length too which is perfect for me.
Children's Items
My youngest has suddenly developed a love for puzzles! If there's two things I never mind buying for my little ones it's books and educational toys. These two puzzles are from Melissa & Doug and they are really excellent quality. The pieces are chunky, the colours are vibrant and I love that each piece has a little peg making it easier for teeny hands to grasp. I'm so going to be buying a few more of these puzzles for her.
Blog Posts
My favourite blog posts to write were my Oat Face Mask post and my Morning Routine As A Work From Home, Homeschooling Mum post.
