As far as I see it, my birthdays now are just an excuse to eat my favourite pizza and buy myself a spooky Colin The Caterpillar cake 🤤
That being said, I did treat myself to something big to look forward to next summer 🤘🏻

This is why I’m in London.
Hadestown sits next to Phantom as my favourite musical, and I was SO lucky to get a ticket to see this run with some of the original Broadway cast.
My goodness, this performance is something that’s going to stay in my mind for a long time…

Since I had deliberately gone to Dishoom early, I knew I’d have time to go elsewhere for something sweet…
Found my way to Seven Dials (street food market) for the first time and chose a tiramisu ice cream sundae pot from one of the dessert stalls 😍

My first visit to Dishoom and it did not disappoint 😍
As a picky vegetarian, it’s so rare that I have a hard time choosing what to eat when I go out somewhere, so this felt like such a fun problem to have 😅
Chota papad, house chaat, black daal, and fresh mint tea 🤤

Day 27: Breakfast Of Champions
Today’s song inspiration comes from the author himself in the book’s prologue:
“I tend to think of human beings as huge, rubbery test tubes, too, with chemical reactions seething inside.” 🧪

Day 26: Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee
I know I’ve already done this band this challenge, but this is a different singer and as perfect a song as I’m gonna get for today’s prompt…

Back on track now, phew! This book reminds me of my Mum SO much - it’s the reason she wants to go to on holiday to a ranch in Montana 🐴

Definitely had to look this one up, but I think I’ve managed to get the gist of what it’s about enough to be able to pick a song…

Day 22: Katherine
In complete contrast to the metalcore band I saw live in Manchester last night, here’s an artist who takes me to a medieval fantasy land with beautiful soprano vocals and dreamy music 😍

This is the band I regret not seeing live the most (I know they’re back, but Chester 💔)

Day 20: The Satanic Verses
Given my taste, it shouldn’t come as a surprise to hear that I was spoilt for choice in my music library when it came to this particular prompt 😈🤘🏻

I still really, really need to see this artist live too…

Were having a few days break from the metal now, which I know Dad will be pleased about 😅
I do like a nice mellow start to the week sometimes too 🐦☺️

Day 16: The Once And Future King
One of the easier prompts of the month for sure, and a chance to share probably my favourite song by a band I really love 🤘🏻👑
Bring Me The Horizon - Throne: www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJjv...
(Again, sorry Dad, this isn’t nearly as fun as Ghost 😅)

Day 15: Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil
Had to have a little look at the plot for this one, but I took inspiration from the fact there’s a voodoo priestess in there for today’s song… and, actually, it’s quite murder-y too!

Day 14: It
This band is an absolute gift when it comes to horror prompts in these challenges 🤘🏻
I’m actually very, very scared of clowns so watched the modern iteration of It mostly behind a pillow…

Another unfamiliar book, but one I actually think I might like to read at some point 😱
And I will make no apologies for sharing an 8 minute 20 second long track when it’s this wonderful 😍

I’ve gone for an exact match today because 1. I absolutely adore Marina, and 2. I can’t come up with anything more perfect than this within the boundaries of my own musical knowledge…
