A Glasgow Girl

   Yesterday we went to the Willow Tea Rooms for a relative's Birthday celebrations. We were in the Salon De Luxe and I can't say enough about how amazing it was! We opted for the Champagne afternoon tea which included a glass of champagne, as much tea as you can drink, soup, 2 savouries, 3 sandwiches, 2 scones and so many cakes!!! It also included a tour of the Salon de Luxe and a ticket to the Willow Tea Rooms exhibition.     The whole experience was very luxurious. Megan our waitress introduced herself to the small room of 4 tables and served our Champagne then we chose our teas. I am not a big tea fan although they had 27 varieties so I gave the Cloud Catcher a go. They had a table with all the teas out so you could have a smell before you made your decision. The Cloud Catcher was nice and fruity and was the first tea I actually enjoyed. We each got our own little teapot and a strainer to pour into our Willow print tea cups. As Megan explained you can have a...

I've said this before but it's been a while. Lots has happened since my last post which I'll maybe do a wee update post about, but today I'm here to talk about where I went for lunch today. Living in Corona times the most exciting thing you can possibly do is go for a walk and get a takeaway lunch, and today was an exciting day. After a short walk around Kelvingrove park and down Byres Road we stopped at unassuming little hole in the wall with a long queue outside which is always a good sign. The queue went down quickly and there was some cute dogs in front of us (bonus!). The staff were absolutely lovely.

I also got a hot apple cider (not as sweet as I expected it to be but still delicious) and the last slice of gf millionaires shortbread!  My sister got...

Hello world...this all seems very strange. I understand what bloggers mean now when they say that your first post seems like you are just shouting into an empty room. I'll start by introducing myself-my name is Fiona, I'm 22 and I'm from Glasgow (as the title of my blog kinda suggests). I have recently completed university and have been a fan of blogs and vlogs for a while so decided now would be the perfect time to start my own. I am planning to blog on fashion, beauty, theatre and my everyday life. Here are a few random facts about me to help you to get to know me better: 1. I have just completed an Honours degree in Musical Theatre. I am currently waiting on my results-it is completely and utterly TERRIFYING. 2. I played the cello at school. When my mother first asked me if I wanted to learn how to play at the age of 11, I was told that it is 'a big violin'. It is a HUGE violin, and considering that I was teeny tiny at that age (and am still fairly petite...
