This January I’m Loving …


Walkers Sensations Caramelised Onion and Balsamic Vinegar Crisps, crunchy and flavoursome, they remind me a little of the Savoury Vinegar crisps I so loved back in the 70s (I was very young then, of course).

Avène MIcellar Lotion, a cleanser and make-up remover containing thermal spring water, a bit pricey at an average of £12.50 (OK, I cheated, I got mine free with a Prima magazine subscription) but very effective. When I first saw it, I thought it looked more like a toner than a cleanser, but the results were amazing, the cotton wool pad I’d used bearing testament to its deep cleansing effect, showing tell-tale grime and make-up residue.

Fairy Sensitive Washing Up Liquid with Chamomile and Vitamin E, is definitely the ‘kindest to hands’ variety that I have used, with its usual Fairy effectiveness at cleaning the dishes.

Cross Stitch, having done so little of this for so long, I have been working through my backlog of kits, and am really enjoying it. For new inspiration I’ve bought World of Cross Stitching magazine (£4.99, but look online for 5 issues for £5 offer www.cross-stitching.com/magazines/the-world-of-cross-stitching ) with Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady flower cross stitch kit.
