I recently worked on a project where I had to do some research around litter and initiatives around the country to tackle the amount of litter people throw in the streets. It was an interesting project and I learned a lot, but one thing stood out – people throw litter in the streets but not […]

I really enjoyed the London Pride Festival that was organised to celebrate the Queens Diamond Jubilee visit to our borough, but despite the amazing artwork on display from British artists, the part that I really loved was the work on display (and for sale) by local artists. My favourite was the work of artist Yvette […]

We have had a few days of windy and wet weather here.  I don’t know what it is, but my husband has a thing about wanting pakora’s when it rains.  It’s what his mum used to make at home in pakistan when it rained and somewhat of a family tradition.  I don’t know if it […]

Irish Muslimah recently posed a question on her blog which I thought was very pertinent. She asked what kinds of food people prepare on Eid and how they celebrated.

Something to wear (Kooks bought this for me and I haven’t had the opportunity to wear it): Somthing to wear with it (I went with the deep pink ones in the end): More bling… …and another outing for my fave shoes: I was worried these wouldn’t much (they were similar to the colour of the […]
