Dye

So I kind of stopped checking to see if you'd updated this blog after 8 days. Or maybe I checked once or twice more but just saw the heading 'RE: Tuesday thoughts' and didn't realise it wasn't 'Tuesday thoughts'. Anyway, I guess that's one reason it has taken me a week to respond.

I have tried dying clothes a few times but it's never been successful. I look forward to hearing more about your experience. What colour?! (I'm sure this makes a different.) How did you do it?! (One time I broke my washing machine doing it.) Did you get an even dye? (I never have.)  You seemed please so I guess you did.

This is also exciting about dying your hair. I'd like to do it to. I was thinking about going darker but getting caramel highlights. Obvs I want to go full blonde but the cost and effort is beyond me. In truth the cost of dark hair with caramel highlights is beyond me too but it feels like something that could be achievable in the foreseeable future and I feel like it's good to have attainable dreams.

Sweet, Mate

So Mate, I thought I'd respond to the above text here, rather than there as I guess I have more to say than thumbs up emoji, though I do want to say that too.  How exciting that you bought Sweet and how exciting that soon you will have it and soon you will bake from it! I wonder what the first cab off the rank will be.  I am fully intending to buy it, but I bought this other book recently and have been cooking lots of things from it.  Do you know this woman, Mate? She is part of that Melbourne food/design scene I guess. She's friends with Gemma. She lives in Brunswick and I follow her on instagram so I feel like I know her in the way one does in these weird times we live in. So when it came to handing over cash for Ottolenghi or Julia, I felt like I should buy Julia first.  I've made a couple of savory and a couple of sweet numbers from her book and so far they've all been simple and pretty darn delicious. I've been trying to put my finger on what's good about

Dye doubt it

I thought it would be fun to just update this blog on the DL and then we can each be pleasantly surprised when we log on and find something. So darker brown with caramel highlights sounds fantastic. Anything caramel sounds pretty fantastic. Side note: how good does that recipe for middle eastern millionaire’s shortbread in Sweet sound? So good, that’s how good.  Back to hair. This do by Lucky Buster appeals to me. It’s kind of where I want to go. But then I showed Holloway and said “what do you think of this?”.  He said “I’m not sure you...” before getting cut off by the H bomb going off.  I don’t know whether he was going to say “I’m not sure you should show me these photos because I love them all and could never pick a favourite!!” Or  “I’m not sure you should go there” Or something in between.  The prospect of my boyfriend not liking my hair makes me not want to dye my hair. It’s not like I can’t think for myself or nothin. It’s just that I have no interest in doing something that h

It's time

So this blog has been live for a couple of weeks now and I guess it's time we talked about Ewan. The other night I was just scrolling through Instagram and a picture that Ewan posted was credited to his daughter Clara and I thought I'd just take a look at her Insta account. It's basically exactly the same as the account of every other daughter of a famous person that grew up in LA. Selfies of her in a bikini or in jeans and a t-shirt and occasional photos of her just chilling with her buds. I'm sure you've seen this kind of account before. The only noticeable difference is that Ewan McFuckingGregor (AKA her dad) comments on a lot of the pics. One of the first pictures I looked at was a picture of Clara and underneath Ewan had commented "My beautiful girl. x" I have to say, it was kind of confronting. Like, I know that Ewan is a real person with a wife and kids and everything but it was really weird to see him just respond to his adult daughter's In
