Hey recent and soon to be graduates...

It's okay...

that you haven't done anything since leaving university
that you haven't applied to any internships or jobs
that you don't want to find a job right away
that you've got a horrible anxious feeling about having to pay back all of that student loan
that you're thinking of switching career paths
that you haven't got your whole life plan figured out yet
that you've spent all day watching things on Netflix that you've already seen before
that you wake up later and later every day since the last day of university
that you're enjoying having all of this free time
that you started a blog because you're not sure what to do next (because of point 2)
that you're really sad that your student card will expire soon and you'll have to pay full price again

Happy #AirMaxDay!

Today it's the 27th birthday of my most loved trainer design, the Air Max.

I've taken these to Paris in July 2013 for mine and Beau's first year anniversary, and it was scorching hot. So that's why they look so ... Patchy. 

But they are the comfiest pair I've ever had, and they were worth every penny. 

(Some people think they're fake...)

I love them to pieces.
Some girls don't like to wear trainers because they can look boyish, but it's super easy to dress them up.
Here's an old photo from my trip to Paris.

Happy Birthday to a classic.

Coconut and Banana cake

Today I baked two banana cakes, one with coconut (left) and one without (right).

Ingredients for one banana cake:

80g butter

80g caster sugar

250g self raising flour

2 medium eggs

1 tsp vanilla essence 

4 ripe bananas

For a coconut banana cake, just add as much desiccated coconut as you want.

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and line a loaf tin with baking paper. 

2. Begin by melting the butter in a microwave, and stir in the sugar.
3. Beat in the eggs.
4. I used a hand blender to blitz my bananas, then I stirred it in. You can mash them with a fork but I found the hand blender method easier.
5. Sift in the flour and stir till combined.
6. Bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 40-50 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. I always keep a watch out once it's been 40 minutes in case the top gets too brown.
7. You can either leave the cake to cool in or out of the tin, (personally I don't think this makes a difference) or you can serve warm.

Let me know if you try it!
