Greetings! I'm Annastasia
-
I'm bit keen on the colour green and like to ramble on about food, cooking, veganism, refashioning, sewing, clothes, list making, music, reading and anything else that pops up in my overcrowded existence! I'm also one half of Ink Drops because stationery makes the world a happier place.

My year of less and more: month 2
I’ve now completed my second month with no purchases of clothes, shoes, or accessories. It’s not been difficult. However I have noted the following:
- It seems odd when I do walk through a shop selling clothes – as if I’d forgotten such things existed.
- Sales still catch my eye – I had to remind myself that I had no need of more shoes when I spotted a shop with a closing down sale.
- I’m finding more satisfaction in wearing the stuff I do have.
I’ve been setting myself 3 goals each month using the New Year Revolution planner. My goals for March are:
- Organise a vegan meet up in Chelmsford – all welcome
- Create a classics reading list for myself – suggestions welcome
- Sort out the garden – good weather welcome
I’m rather nervous about the vegan meet up, and know that I need to take action on this sooner rather than later. Hence I’ve made my other goals easy to ensure that I have no excuse for not doing it.
Last month I got organised with forty for 40, and assigned a few tasks for each month. So during March I’ll be looking at:
- Making crumpets – need to buy cook’s rings
- Planning a visit to Veganz in Berlin
- Making a green cape
- Organising a boudoir photo shoot with Carla and my bass
Wishing you all things green,
Annastasia

The great snowdrop hunt

I always do a dry January. From the 3rd to tne 31st I avoid alcohol. It’s got nothing to do with detox, or making resolutions I won’t keep. Instead it’s a way of reminding myself how satisfying life without booze can be. See habits take time to … Continue reading
