It’s Christmas Eve! Merry Christmas!

Our bodies are feeling a little cranky, a little sore, and carrying babies through this hot, hot summer is no small physical feat. If you’re feeling it too - you’re not alone.

R&R (Recipe & Recommendation)

Recommendation: Get into the water — the ocean, the pool, anywhere you can dunk your head under. A good pair of togs, a sarong, some funky jewellery and a great hat go a long way. Sink into the slowness, enjoy being by the water. You bloody deserve it doll. 

Recipe: A refreshing Mango Chia Seed Pudding — cool, nourishing and perfect for summer. Find the recipe here

Recommendation: The MCO Beauty Lip Mask — a summer staple for dry, tired lips. Shop it here

Recipe: A festive Christmas Quencher (non-alcoholic punch) — hydrating, celebratory and perfect for Christmas Eve sipping. 

Lil’s Mums text about the quencher reads: 

It starts with a lemon/sugar syrup -maybe 1 cup of sugar, juice of 2 lemons, 1 cup of water long strips of the lemon rind (use vegetable peeler) big sprigs of mint. 

Boil together till sugar dissolves. Cool leaving rind and mint in the syrup until you put the quencher together. 

Add the strained quencher base to a large tin of pineapple juice, ginger ale and soda water.

A very Merry Christmas from us to you, we’re so grateful to be in all the seasons alongside you.
