I'm Chiquilin aka Jacquie! So you've stumbled across my blog of thoughts, photography and the things I love, huh? Well have fun! Look around, tell me what you think and give me some tips and advice! I'd love to talk :)
Does anyone else here scroll through tumblr or instagram in a sort of wanderlust, dreaming and wistfully thinking about the perfect composition of photos, the props, the light and airy summer feels? As soon as I found THIS mason jar from Typo for a meagre $3.95, I knew I finally had the right sort of prop to go along with nothing other than....the most delicious and summery smoothie I could possibly create! And using only 3 ingredients!
^Enjoyed, of course, with my feet dappling waves in the pool and my (sunscreen lathered) skin shining in the sun.
So, to make one large smoothie:
1. Cut one banana into small discs, and the cheeks of a mango into cubes. Freeze, covered in cling film. 2. Once frozen (at least 4 hours to get the creamy texture) blitz the frozen fruit in a blender with one cup of water. 3. Enjoy this instagrammable smoothie in your mason jar! *note Typo have no sponsored me for this post.
Wow - was Halloween really 2 weeks ago already?! Is it already mid-November?? How did this happen!!!! Oh well, I'd still love to share the super exciting Halloween party my aunty hosted for us two weeks ago - I think you'll agree, her effort was tremendous and I did have to look twice at all the spiders hugging the walls (you know, just in case a live one popped up and tried to hide itself hehe). We had the weekend at my aunty's house - Halloween dinner party on the Saturday night then breakfast of homemade scones with jam and cream on the Sunday: rather civilised for zombies and witches, don't you think?
Just a quick update for this dear blog of mine - I've been super duper busy studying for my final exams! First year of uni almost over; how crazy is that thought?! Hope you're all doing well. From my end, this is where I've been spending the majority of my days:
