NOVEMBER HIGHLIGHTS | MY BEAUTY, FASHION AND POP CULTURE FAVOURITES.

Wednesday 30 November 2016

Hi guys! I can't believe it's December tomorrow, I still haven't even bought an advent calendar so I might have to change out of my PJs and go get one, but I'm not sure if it's worth stepping out into the cold for. This month has flown by and I can't believe I'm back in Gibraltar in 2 weeks! It couldn't come any sooner and I can't wait to be at home eating home cooked meals in a warm house. Anyway, here are my November favourites! 

15 PEOPLE ON THEIR FAVOURITE WEIRD AND WONDERFUL FOOD COMBINATIONS.

Monday 28 November 2016

I love food, so it was about time there was a food related question of the month up on the blog! The whole idea started when I was eating my perfectly normal Hawaiian pizza and a friend commented on how pineapple does not belong on pizza, which then led to a deep discussion on what weird and wonderful foods we like to pair together that aren't necessarily very conventional. Here's some of the best ones you guys contributed!

TEA WITH GI | A COLLABORATION WITH BLUEBIRD TEA CO

Tuesday 22 November 2016

Considering my blog name, it makes sense that I occasionally feature some great tea companies I stumble upon. I heard about bluebird tea co a couple of months back and was amazed by the interesting range of teas they offer, and we're not just talking your usual chai and peppermint tea! They kindly sent me their brand new christmas range to try and tell you guys about! Here's what I made of their collection.

15 GOOD HABITS WE SHOULD ALL BE ADOPTING.

Tuesday 15 November 2016

Hey guys, I'm back at it again with another list of things to make us all feel fabulous. I always feel like with these posts it may come across like I know everything and you must do what I say, but I write these posts to remind myself of these things and if in the process you guys can relate and decide to take these things on too, then that's my good deed done for the day. 

STUDENT COOKBOOK | WHITE FISH SOUP (EMBLANCO)

Thursday 10 November 2016

It's been so long since I've put up a new recipe, I find I'm never patient enough to take photos first or I just think it's something too basic which you all probably know how to make! I've decided to keep this up just so I have an online recipe book to refer to, considering I keep forgetting how to make or forget to jot down the method! So here is a gibraltarian/spanish fish soup that's perfect for the winter months and will be ready to enjoy in half an hour! I know fish soup sounds pretty grim, but this is one of my favourite winter dishes and despite the name it doesn't actually taste that fishy. 



FLOWERS FOR EVERY OCCASION | BLOSSOMING GIFTS BOUQUET GIVEAWAY!

Wednesday 9 November 2016

Who doesn't love receiving flowers? I think I've only ever been given two 'bouquets' in my life, one from my ex and a single rose from a random man in Rome. Flowers are often just reserved for funerals or 'special' occasions, but wouldn't it be a nice surprise if we gave these out whenever we were genuinely grateful for something, or just to say thank you for being a great person. Sadly I don't have a partner to shower me with chocolate and roses, but luckily Blossoming Gifts got in touch and offered to send me one of their lovely bouquets. 

THE SIMPLE PLEASURES OF LIFE, FOR WHEN YOU NEED REMINDING.

Monday 7 November 2016

So I decided to do this blog tag because I am currently sitting in my freezing cold flat with 3 pairs of socks on, a dressing gown and scarf on and hating life. I would have my mittens on too if that meant I could still type. I almost forgot how dark it gets so soon in UK and I'm definitely not about that life, and I've decided I won't be living anywhere after uni that has an average temperature of under 10 degrees. Rant over, here's a simple list of 30 little things that make me feel #blessed. 

TOP CASINOS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM.

Sunday 6 November 2016

When you think about some of the world’s best Casinos, or even more the best places to go all out when it comes to gambling and having a good time, everyone automatically thinks - VEGAS! Although the city is full of glitz and glams, we often ignore how much our own country has to offer. From London's Hippodrome to the Rendezvous Casino in Brighton, there's somewhere all across the country where you can try your luck and have a good time. And if you are interested in learning more about this, I have found a complete informative catalog about all the casinos located in the UK, which covers places such as Belfast, Bristol and Liverpool, so I definitely recommend you to check it out!

OCTOBER HIGHLIGHTS | MY BEAUTY, FASHION AND POP CULTURE FAVOURITES.

Friday 4 November 2016

I haven't done a monthly favourites post in months, simply because I'm a broke student and buying clothes and make-up has had to take a back seat. Seeing as I never have enough material based on movies, books and beauty alone, I thought I'd group them all into one and do a blog post on things I have been loving this month and share it with you guys. 

THE GUIDE TO A PERFECT CUP OF TEA, AS TOLD BY 10 READERS.

Wednesday 2 November 2016

So I've been blogging under the name of Tea With Gi for around a year and a half now, before I went by gianasbananas and obviously, blogged about fruit. In case you were ever wondering why I picked this for my blog name, I basically want you guys to enjoy reading my blog in the morning/afternoon/evening whilst you have a cuppa, which is when I mostly do my blog writing! I can't count the amount of times I've been asked if I blog specifically about tea, I've even had brands send me products and in the note include "we love reading all about different types of teas and cafes". The funniest had to be when I was emailed for a collaboration and the woman literally thought my name was Tea. In the spirit of that, I thought I'd actually make a blog post all about tea, here are 10 people on how to make the perfect cuppa.
