2014

So this may be a little late to talk of my resolutions but I do tend to spend a while thinking about them and what I want to achieve in the new year.

My resolutions are mainly revolved around trying to control my anxiety, stress and anger levels.  I do suffer from anxiety and panic attacks due mainly to a terrible time I had in the summer of 2012 to the summer of 2013.  I am in a much happier place now and my future is extremely bright although my stress issues are still causing me a problem.  Therefore I would like to improve on this and I have discovered some great free reads from Ibooks to download to help me.

Of course everyone wants to succeed generally in life but there are a few things that I want to focus on the most.  One would be to pass my driving test first time and to be pottering around in my own car by May.  The other would probably be to continue working hard in my career, hopefully progressing this year to a different and more advanced role.

My resolutions and things I want to succeed in are a lot different from last years and I hope this year I stick to them and achieve what I have set out to do.  I love setting goals like this for myself as it is a total self confidence boost.

What is one of your resolutions for this year or even for this month?

A Pug on a cake?

I love baking cakes and although these cupcakes were plain sponges, they looked awesome!  I realise not a lot of work went into the decoration of these - I used edible cake toppers - but as an enormous Pug lover I thoroughly enjoyed showing them off! I used love heart shaped silicone cases to emphasise this even more and kept the designs on using a sweet basic buttercream.

If you would like a recipe and better photographs then I would gladly make them again!  I will also then link to where I found my toppers.  What do you think to Honey posing in the background?

Come say hi?

Welcome to Marshmallow Tummy - I am Christy and I am a UK based blogger.

<-- So this is me.

I am 19 years old and I live with my boyfriend who is the love of my life.  I have a background of jewellery visual merchandising and am fashion retail educated.

I have decided to start this blog as a place to vent my opinions on beauty products, baking and my life.  However I don't want to give myself a set schedule of when I upload as I don't want anything to come across forced or fake to you guys.

I would love for anyone reading this to leave me a comment, drop me an email or get in touch via my social media links - which will be on the contact page.
