  • Don't worry, there's no chance of me becoming a baking blogger anytime soon! I love baking but between a lack of skills and energy, I rarely get the opportunity. However, when I do, I make a Strawberry crumble. 🍓In case you want to try making your own: 150g Plain flour (or 75g or Plain flour and Oat flour) 75g of Sugar for the topping 75g of Sugar for the strawberries A handful of oats 250g of butter (room temperature)Method: Preheat the over to 180 (fan). Cut your strawberries and lay in the dish, cover with your sugar and pop in the oven whilst you make your topping. Use your fingers to mix the butter, sugar and flour together to create the breadcrumb texture. Pour these onto your crumble and put back in the oven for 40-45 minutes or until golden on top.Enjoy with a Grufallo, or your family.VD: A white woman, with brow hair in a pony tail, wearing a purple dress showing you how she makes a crumble.

  • Get me being trendy before the trend is over! I keep seeing butter yellow text over images with poor contrast taking the internet by storm and I'm here to remind you that inclusive is the new trending. High colour contrast, backgrounds on your text and don't forget visual descriptions people.VD: Photo 1: Imali sitting in her wheelchair next to fire and water characters. The text reads 'Kinda chic to be an accessibility advocate.' Photo 2: A view of Imali from behind her wheelchair, as she gazes up at Lotso bear. The text reads 'Kinda chic to be have autistic special interests.' Photo 3: Imali stood at Disneyland Paris in front of the castle with her stoma bag visible. The text reads 'Kinda chic to have a stoma at Disney.' Photo 4: Imali 'petting' the dog from UP as she sits next to it in her wheelchair. The text reads 'Kinda chic to be a Disney Girl.' Photo 5: In a dark room with the core memories from Inside Out, in my wheelchair. The text reads 'Kinda chic to be never stop dressing up and wearing glitter.'
