Went mushroom foraging with my dad recently, I won't share the inappropriate joke my mum made about the size of the mushroom 😏🍄 #MushroomForaging #Foraging #ItIsntTheSizeOfTheMushroomButHowYouCookIt
A photo of two mushrooms being held in a hand. The background is a bright, colourful and out of focus path winding through a forest. There is one small yellow chanterelle mushroom, and one brown and cream classic looking mushroom.

Festivals are for ✨️the girlies✨️

Honestly, I had such a great time at my first one & feeling very grateful today for good friends who accommodate my needs 💕

#Festival #Girlies #DisabledAndStillRocking
A photo of two girls in a field, grass, tents and the sunset can be seen behind them. Both are wearing ram horn headpieces, with layered silver jewellery. The one on the left is in black, with fishnet arms, short green hair and purple makeup. The one on the right is in a striped brown cardigan, has blonde hair in plaits, and wears simple makeup. A group of girls pose in a field, surrounded by tents and with the bright blue sky in the background. The girls wear various hippie and alt style clothes, with two kneeling at the front and three stood at the back. They are all smiling or laughing, hugging one another.

Scored some vegan bargains today, and Aldi's new chocolate is actually delicious 🤤 trying to cut out meat and eat less dairy for both the world & because my doctor recommended it for one of my health issues! 🌏 #Vegan #VeganChocolate #Bargain
An image of three items on a light cream and grey rug. On the far left is a caramelised biscuit vegan chocolate bar from Aldi, then a pack of two veggie burgers in the middle, and on the right is a pack of Moroccan falafel.

Garden centres and plant shops are my happy place, set me loose in one and watch me tranform into an excited puppy dog 😅🪴 #Plants #GardenCentre #PlantLover
A photo of a fem white person with long light coloured hair stood in a greenhouse like structure, surrounded by plants. It appears to be a plant shop, with the person stood in the middle of an aisle. They smile widely whilst looking to the side.

The best part of my gardening class was meeting the chickens 🐔

Extremely cool gemstone globe I saw in an antique shop the other day. If only I had the money and room for it 😭

Two days before my period, and I just had my monthly pep talk from my boyfriend reminding me that I'm not an awful failure of a human being who everyone hates 🤪 could we please skip to a week from now when I feel like hot shit again? 🥲 #LutealPhase #Hormones #MonthlyCycle

The crochet projects in question that have ruined my hands - at least they're ✨️cute✨️ #Crochet #GrannySquare #Celestial
A crocheted headscarf. It fades from pink, to purple, to blue. A crocheted granny square. A yellow sun is in the centre, and two tones of purple frame the sun.

In a love-hate relationship with crochet. I love making cute little things, but I HATE the havoc it wreaks on my hands 🥴🥲🫠

After avoiding catching an illness all winter, I have finally succumbed to fate. Darn birthday meals, I should have known dining two days in a row would be my downfall. If only I could wear a mask whilst eating 😭

Early birthday presents are such a vibe 😍🧚‍♀️🪴 #FairyCore #PinkPlants #HousePlant
A photo of a plant and a snow globe on a desk. The plant is small and has lots of green leaves, some are speckled with white, some light pink and some dark pink. The snow globe has some red mushrooms inside and iridescent sparkles floating. The bas is a tree trunk, and a fairy is sleeping on top of the globe.
