Hi everyone! It's Monday afternoon here, and I'm sitting on the couch under a blanket with our namesakes, Leroy & Betty (two SPCA rescued Chihuahuas) while I recover from a severe allergic reaction I had in the weekend. I'm getting there, slowly, but it means I'm a bit behind with things and have to rest for a wee while!  I thought while I'm resting I'd give you an update on what's coming up. In a couple of weeks it's my birthday, and as I love celebrating (you'd think now I'm in my mid thirties that would have stopped, but no!),...

How the heck is it July already? I feel like just yesterday it was mid-summer! It's been a few weeks since my last blog post, so I thought it's a great time to give an update on how the changes are coming along.

It's been a few months since my last blog post, but we have so much coming up this week that I thought it would be better to put it all into one post. Customer survey First up, as it's been nearly three years since we last asked what YOU thought in a survey, it's time for another one! It's super short, shouldn't take more than a few minutes, and anyone who fills it out will get the option to be emailed a single-use 10% off voucher for their next order, to use by 30 June 2021 as a small way...

Hi everyone There's a lot going on behind the scenes at the moment, and quite a bit coming up in the lead up to Christmas, so I thought it was a great time for an update post. It's nearly our second birthday! In just a few weeks, the store will be turning two. There will be a sale, plus giveaways, exclusive deals and more going on to celebrate. Join the Facebook event to be kept in the loop, and to get a reminder to visit the store for the sale. Markets I have two markets booked for November so far, and...
