This is a collaborative post. If you’re like most people with a garden, you probably want it to look like an extension of your home, where you can host parties and enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. However, if your outside area is just a bare green yard, it may seem difficult to achieve this. Worry not; there are tonnes of stylish ways to decorate your yard, no matter its size. Adding garden ornaments to your outdoor space is a great way to improve its design and make it seem cosy and welcoming. Ornaments are a great way to capture …
We’ve all heard it already: eat seasonal, it’s the best for you and it’s the most sustainable. Seasonal eating – the phrase became a buzzword for advertisers as well: it’s often used to highlight the freshness of a product or a dish in supermarkets and restaurants. Yeah, easy to say! In our globalised food supply, everything seems to be in season at any given day of the year. We live in the age of being able to eat anything at any time of the year we wanted to. Raspberries in December? No problem. Raspberries every day of the year? Also …
This is a collaborative post. Today, the creation of a pharmacy garden on your site is not only an opportunity to grow useful medicinal and aromatic plants near your home, but also a chance to decorate your garden in an original way.

A good place to start your search is the continent of Europe, which has diverse biomes and is also the birthplace of many much–loved legends and myths, as well as …
Now that the days are longer, I get to take photos and videos of new food I cook for my family. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes and ingredients. Also, love “veganising” some meat based recipes. This 30 Minutes Vegan Mexican Beans (Taco and Tortilla Filler) Recipe is one of those.
