Over the years I’ve had the honour of making friends children their birthday cakes but today I got to make MY son’s first birthday cake and it’s filled my heart with so much joy. I made it in the shape of his favourite thing- bread!
Despite all the advice, I have never googled things as much as I have done in the past 6 months! Mostly late at night, often in a heightened state. But even at that state, I kept in mind if the information came from a credible source or not. Checked my references!
All in all becoming a parent is tough and, a bit like academia, the mental toil isn't always talked about before you start on that journey. You might be prepared in some ways but in other completely lost and feeling alone.

This has made me so happy. I have fond memories of the IMAX when I was at uni- saw Lion King rerelease there with one other person in the whole cinema. But now a fantastic film festival will be held there later this year. I’m so UP FOR THIS
Coming soon to #Bristol: a film festival dedicated to screening repertory fantasy, action, science-fiction and horror films from around the world and celebrating the people that made them. #ForbiddenWorldsFilmFest

Right I need some recommendations to add to my audible account. Looking for something that fits into the magical realism genre- think Gaiman/Aaronovitch. Preferable a series, with humour. Been considering Pratchett but looking for other suggestions
