Nicoletta Carlone Unboxing


A picture of the earrings from the website as my camera didn't want to focus:


Do you like Victorian Mourning themed items? Would you wear the belt or earrings?

    I've never seen a Victorian mourning belt before -- very cool! Unfortunately, the earrings are too small on the video for me to see what they look like.

      My camera doesn't want to photograph them well either due to the black! Maybe I can add an image from their website which definitely showed them better.

    The belt is pretty unusual, and I would most definitely wear it, Laura! xxx

Queensland Holiday Part 1: Ripley's Believe It or Not

Image
DAY 1: Sunday We arrived at Gold Coast Airport from Sydney early in the morning and got a bus to Surfer's Paradise. Once there we got an early check in at our hotel in the Q1 building at about 12.15, and went out to look around. We checked out the shops and beach. We had an ocean view from our room and could see and hear the waves. DAY 2: Monday Day two's weather was punctuated by rain showers but we were doing mostly indoor activities, so it wasn't a big problem. We started out at Ripley's which was just off the main street in Surfer's Paradise. Ripley's Believe it or Not Robert Ripley  ( February 22, 1890 – May 27, 1949)  began his career as a sportsman and cartoonist. He was fascinated by unusual events and objects, leading to his "Believe it or Not!" comic strips which became very popular. He enjoyed travelling the world to find oddities and opened his first museum in Chicago in 1933, then known as the Odditorium. In 1936 he was voted the most popu...

The Anti-Consumerist Druid

Image
I received a digital ARC for this book from the author. There are two kinds of books about consumerism, those that are annoyingly preachy, making you feel like a loser for not living a completely frugal life and those that are relatable and help you see points in your own life that you could improve while still embracing life. T his book was definitely one of the latter. As Katrina Townsend says, over-saturation can make you feel “bludgeoned with more things I ought to be doing” and overwhelmed as well as costing you a bundle trying to go green or frugal. You need to be mindful at take it slowly. H er interest in Druidry and spirituality helped her find focus. From the start I was drawn in by Townsend’s friendly tone and nonjudgmental style. S he showed her own failings and made it clear that it is normal to be drawn into the cycle of consumerism in our modern lives. Her story is probably at least a little familiar to most of us. Haven’t most of us been sucked in by the serotonin cycle...

Mythic March: March Hare

This short story was based around the prompt "March Hare" More on Mythic March here , here  and h ere * “She’s absolutely mad!” Henry spat, slamming his beer down on the bar. “Now, now, you’re new to Meadowsweet, we have a lot of characters around here”, Lem the barman said, wiping up the spilled beer with a dirty looking tea towel. Lem was just how Henry would have imagined a small town bartender to look: big, beefy and balding, with an anchor tattoo on one bulging bicep. The fact that Lem preferred words over violence and had been faithfully married to his husband for twenty-six years broke the stereotype somewhat. “You think she’s a character?” Henry said, “She yelled at me for buying traps just today! Said I was a murderer!” This was only the last in a long line of insults that included treating his yard as if it was her own (“foraging”, she claimed) and laughing at him that time he split his trousers in town. “Ah, everyone is really into conservation around these parts”,...
