The Things I Love - May
- OPI You Don’t Know Jacques £9.95 available from Lena White.
I love painting my nails – it is simple little thing to do which means I can devote an hour to myself! I am also a sucker for the “latest” must have colours, so obviously I wanted the Chanel’s Particulière but not wanting to put my name of a waiting list, I hunted around online for a suitable “griege” replacement and this OPI colour was it. - Foursquare, Free see website to register.
I am a little addicted to Twitter, but quite often I have no idea what to say…”Having drinks at X Bar” seems a little lame and of course you don’t want to overshare, however, Foursquare seems to be the perfect solution. Users “check-in” when they arrive somewhere using the handy phone app, the check-in can then be streamed to your twitter or facebook account. The more I use this app the more I discovered about it, (I love collecting all the different badges), having used it in New York last week, I learnt about the special offers available to users, like 10% frozen yogurt in Pinkberry. As the service was only launched in London earlier this year, I am hoping it catches on over here. - Palm peeler £4.00 available from Amazon.
Being a left hander, I have always had problems with basic tool like scissors and peelers (I think it is because are school I was forced to use right hander versions), so whenever I see an alternative tool, I have to give it a go, the majority of time they end up being a waste of money but this palm peeler actually worked! - VitaCoca Coconut Water from £1.99 available from Holland and Barrett.
Last year, I gave up coffee and started cutting down on fizzy drinks, but ever since I have sturggled to find things to drink thoughout the day, obvioulsy there is water,but I try to limit the amount of juice I drink because of the hidden sugars, I have looked into alternatives, flavoured water, or sports drinks but they are all extremely hugh in calories or sugar. So when I read about Coconut Water I thought it was too good to be true, low in calories and sugar, and with added benefits and it tastes good! - Glee – watch previous episodes on 4ondemand.
Okay I have been loving this for a while, but I figured it deserved an mention! I have no idea why this show is a firm favourite in Chez Tagg, a programme about a choir set in a high schooll does not sound like great idea, but something about the humour and the songs make this the perfect combination. All I can say is if you aren’t a gleek yet you have to watch this show!
