How To Hire The Right Landscaper For Your YardCategories Landscaping
Whether you are looking to hire someone to do your landscaping or you are going to do it yourself, there are some things you need to know. Once you understand landscaping and the things that you can do to create beautiful surroundings, it will be easier to do it yourself or direct someone else to do it. Read on for some great ideas.
Create a sketch of what you want your finished product to look like before starting a project. This lets you visualize the space with the correct dimensions, thanks to your careful measurements, so you can estimate the materials needed and costs involved. You can also easily make changes to the sketch, as opposed to making changes to the actual lawn.
While it may be tempting to have a solid cover installed over your out door space, it is a much better idea to install shade bars that are open. Less of the area will be covered, since there is open space, but it will allow more heat to escape so that you will be cooler.
When investigating landscaping options for your property for the first time, consider what tasks you will need professionals to complete. Some specialized landscaping tasks require an arborist, landscape architect, or tree limber who can help you with specific landscaping tasks. Although this is more costly than doing it on your own, you have a better chance at a quality job.
If you have children, or would like an area to entertain guests, it would be wise to plan out an open space in your landscaping. Make sure that you allocate this space, before starting your landscaping project, so that you ensure that you will have enough room once you are done.
Before you go to a gardening store to get your materials together, measure out your work area and make sure the measurements are exact. Having exact measurements makes it easier to calculate the needed amounts of materials. This simple step can ensure you do not end up with either a shortage or surplus of materials.
Create a plan. Before you pick up a shovel, map everything out on paper. Your plan can range in complexity from a quick sketch to a highly detailed proposal. Be sure to include the features in your garden that you want to keep, and then make several copies of the plan. Use these copies to design a number of different options for your garden, including various types of beds and hard scape.
Use walls and fences in your design. Select a nice fence that will go well with your design and paint it with a harmonious color. You can use walls to suspend plants or even to paint scenes of your creation. Your design will look more finished if you use your walls and fences.
Before you embark on a large landscaping project, contact your homeowner's association, if you have one. Many neighborhoods have guidelines and specifications regarding what you can or cannot do to parts of your property that are visible to other neighbors. They can even force you to change things, if you are in violation of set rules.
So you have decided to do some landscaping around your home. One of the first things that you need to do now is to put your plans on paper, before you start purchasing supplies. Begin by sketching the design of your landscaping on a piece of paper. By doing this, you will know precisely what all you need, which will help you plan a budget, and avoid wasting money.
While hiring a professional is one of your options, doing the landscaping yourself can save you much money and turn out the same results if you carefully plan and are passionate about what you are doing. Different people may prefer different methods, but just remember that doing the landscaping yourself can make for a great activity and save you much money.
When planning your yard, think about maintenance. If you do not have the time to trim your plants regularly, transfer them or put them inside for the winter, choose low-maintenance plants. If you have plenty of time to take care of your yard and really enjoy it, do not hesitate to select more delicate plants.
Buy online. The internet has made shopping incredibly easy. With the internet, you can find just about anything, and compare prices with the click of a button. Use this to your advantage when shopping for materials. Often, you will find better deals online, than you could in a physical store.
In any major landscaping project, proper measurement of the ground is essential. Measuring out the areas involved will help the home owner economize by buying no more or less material than is required. Additionally, a firm grasp of the square footage in question is extremely important to any experts with whom the home owner chooses to consult.
You may be able to save some money by sticking with a square or rectangular patio or garden, but the money that you save could be lessening the appeal of the area. It may be in your best interest to spend a little more to add some attractive shapes so you are happier with the finished product.
If you do not have a very large backyard but you want to spice it up, you may want to add in a garden fountain. Unlike their full pond or winding waterfall counterparts, a garden fountain will not take up much room and they are not too expensive to put in.
Be neighborly. Landscaping equipment is expensive. Before you spend money on it, see if any of your neighbors are interesting in landscaping their yard as well. If they are, suggest that you split the cost of equipment rental. You could save a lot of money by simply taking the time to be sociable.
Now that you've reached the end of this article, you should have a better understanding of landscaping and what it entails. Use what you've just learned to improve your sanctuary and you will be rewarded. Get busy honing your skills, and enjoy every bit of what you are able to accomplish.

Now this probably won't come as a surprise to any of my regular readers but I am going to pause The Small Desk blog for a bit. I don't want to shut it down completely and I'll still be posting on Twitter and Instagram under '@alicesdesk' so follow me there if you don't already, but I just feel I've become a bit lost with this blog.
I started The Small Desk back in 2013 when I was 25. I'm now 29 and feel differently to how I did at 25. I care less about posting the stuff that's going to get the clicks and more about the stuff I am interested in. That's not to say everything I posted when I started was to get the 'clicks' but I do see my most popular blog posts on the side and think some of them really aren't what I'm 'about' now.
I've had a week off work this week and wanted to think more about my hobbies, and how I spend my spare time. In this time I haven't wanted to blog about any of my usual blogging topics and the blog post I do the most, 'my favourites', is the one I least wanted to blog about. It is great to look over the month and make a list of the fun things you've done but to write a mini paragraph about each isn't the most thrilling thing to do at the weekend and doesn't really inspire me. I want to look forward more.
My plan as it stands for this blog is to possibly rebrand, definitely have a redesign and focus on four key themes: travel, food, health and money. I am a culture vulture but I really do fulfil this side of me through my job, and if I do go to exhibitions in my spare time I just want to enjoy them and not feel I have to write about them.
The reason I have chosen the four key themes: travel, food, health and money is because aside from culture they are the four things I think about the most and have the ones I have most to share about. I want to make this blog useful and I want to make it inspiring and forward thinking.
I need time to think carefully about how I do this and the content I want to produce and with only 6 weeks until my wedding (what?!) I don't have the brain space to give this proper thought. So hopefully I will be back blogging in late Sept/early October. But for now thank you for your support with The Small Desk so far. Watch this space!

May favourites 2017 | The Small Desk
1. Lemon meringue cake
At the beginning of the month I went on a little trip to a cafe with the boy and had a scrummy lemon meringue cake. Love going for a drink and a cake, especially when it's chucking it down.
2. Chinese for one
One of my new favourite past times when the boy is out is to order Chinese for one and watch trash TV. I think it was in my last favourites as well, it's becoming a tradition!
3. Needle and Thread sample sale
I went to another Needle and Thread sample sale, this time with my bridesmaids. It was a total disaster because we didn't find anything, but it was fun nonetheless!
4. Bike ride with the boy and Dad
I cycled about 14 miles with the boy and my Dad. I'm really getting into this cycling game!
5. Uni friend sleepover
I hate sleeping on my own so my old friend from Uni came to stay over when the boy was up north for his Granddad's funeral. It was fun to chat and catch up, although the power cut we had in the morning wasn't fun!
6. Walk with girls
A couple of my bridesmaids came down to my area and we went for a two hour walk with a pub stop.
7. Eurovision
Then they stayed longer and watched the brilliant Eurovision song contest.
8. Friend's for dinner
One of my bridesmaids had a couple of us over for dinner and made us burrito bowl, it was delicious.
9. Wedding dress alterations
I had some more wedding dress alterations done this month, getting more done next month. It's always a funny experience with my Mum.
10. Friends's bday
One of our good friends had his birthday celebrations this week. We went to a pub and then headed back to theirs for food and games. Was lovely!
11. Boy's uncle and aunt over
The boy's uncle and auntie popped over for coffee and cake one morning and fitted a new bathroom fan for us!
12. Somerset house
We went to the Mat Collishaw VR exhibition at Somerset house, it was fun to have a day out together but I got motion sickness!
13. Hen do
I went to the boy's sister's family hen do this month where we made flower crowns and had tea and cake.
14. Family day
My sister came down from Manchester and we spent the day together. We visited my Grandma in hospital, then went for tea in John Lewis and then had dinner with my parents and the boy.
15. Honest burgers
We went for dinner at Honest burgers in Soho with a couple who we're friends with and then had ice cream afterwards. Was yummy.
Those are my May favourites, how was your May? Can't believe it's June already!

April favourites 2017 | The Small Desk
In regards to birthday times it was my 29th birthday this month. So crazy to think I'll be 30 next year! I'm in a good place for turning 30 but it still feels a bit scary – I feel like everyone says to you when you're at school 'where would you want to be when you're 30?'. It's something that has been made into a massive milestone in society when really it shouldn't be. You don't need to be completely sorted at age 30, it's still really young! If anyone reading this is freaking out about turning 30 – stop, think, age is only a number!
Anyway, onto the favourites...
1. Spring market
I stumbled upon a Spring market in the town where I live with my partner. It was basically a fancy farmer's market. I had a lemon and sugar pancake and it was scrumptious.
2. Work filming in Bristol
I've never been to the centre of Bristol before so it was exciting to see it and all the cool independent shops. The artist I was filming with in Bristol was super talented and really inspirational and only 21!
3. My birthday
On my birthday I went to Bloomsbury bowling with a group of friends. We played for 2 hours and I was terrible. Afterwards we had yummy pizza in the diner next door.
4. Day out with the neighbours
On the Friday of the Easter weekend our lovely neighbours took us to a local antiques market. It had a restaurant attached so we had a delicious lunch there and went out for drinks later as well. We have been so incredibly lucky with our neighbours, I couldn't have wished for better neighbours!
5. Prezzo with family
To celebrate mine and my sister's birthday we all went out to my local Prezzo and had a three course meal. It was lovely to celebrate with my close family, and share pressies.
6. Bike ride with sister
My sister persuaded me to go on a bike ride with her near where my parents live. I was initially a bit nervous about it because I don't think I've ridden a bike in about 10 years! But I really enjoyed it and it made me want to buy a bike!
7. Easter Day dinner with family
This was a funny one as we were meant to spend it with my grandparents but they were too ill to do so in the end. But we had a nice time in the end just me, my partner, my parents and my sister.
8. Staycation
I took a week off work in April and had a 'staycation'. We stayed at home but took day trips almost every day. It was nice to switch off, I really needed it as I hadn't had a proper holiday since Christmas.
9. Brighton
One of our day trips was to Brighton. Me and my partner go at least once a year and it has a special place in our hearts. I think if it it didn't have such a terrible train line (aka Southern) then we probably would be living there and commuting to London. I love the sea, the cute shops and all the veggie cafes.
10. London
We also went to London on one of our day trips, and even though we are there every day for work there is something special about going there purely for leisure.
11. Visiting partner's family
Another of our day trips was visiting my partner's family in Oxfordshire. We went for a lovely walk in the countryside and had a nice lunch at a local pub.
12. BBC Young Dancer 2017
As part of my birthday present my partner bought me tickets to see the final of BBC Young Dancer at Sadler's Wells. It was absolutely incredible. So many talented young people and so great to see such a buzz around all the different types of dance.
13. New mirror
For my birthday my parents bought me a Habitat mirror I'd been lusting after for our living room. It is round with a gold trim and it gorgeous. It really completes the living room. How old am I!?
14. New bike
As I said earlier – I went on a bike ride for the first time in about 10 years and it made me want a bike. Then I found out you can buy bikes on 18 month 0% finance deals and I was sold! I bought a gorgeous new bike and am now a cycling pro... well almost...
15. Wedding dress alterations
I had a pretty intense morning with my Mum going to a wedding dress alternations tailor. It was an experience and a half but we had a laugh about it afterwards. Also very pleased that I've left enough time to get changes made.
16. Bike ride
Is this my third favourite about bikes?! Who am I!? I went on a bike ride with my partner in our local area – we cycled 9 miles and it took about an hour and a half. I have no idea if that is good, all I cared about was that I didn't fall off!
17. Neighbours over
Finally, last night we had our neighbours over for drinks.
How has your April been? I can't believe it's already May!

Five ways to shut down being spoken down to | The Small Desk
Ok, rule number one: no-one has the right to talk down to you, they don't deserve your time and they don't deserve to be heard. You need to shut them down, and walk away whilst at the same time retaining your dignity and containing your anger. That way they look stupid, feel stupid and you don't waste any energy and stay positive.
Here are five easy sentences to say to people who are putting you down and that allow you to leave the conversation and stop and make the other person think.
On the phone:
1. "Hang on, I need to call you back. I'll ring you back. Bye." And don't ring them back.
In person:
2. "I just need a moment." Walk out of the room and round the block and go back to what you were doing before – do not put yourself back in the situation.
3. "I don't know the answer, but I'll find out and get back to you." And leave.
4. Zone out, stop listening and answer with "I'll email you further tomorrow". And leave.
Over email:
5. Thank you, [your name]. Keep it simple and do not enter into a discussion.
Basically what I've found is if you hit back with more anger it just gets worse. The most irritating thing for someone who is putting you down or trying to make you feel stupid is you not caring. There are better people in your life to care about. End of.
Also, small disclaimer, these are tips I've found work in an office. I don't have these problems at home!

Top 10 ways to switch off from social media | The Small Desk
I'm on holiday from work at the moment, having a staycation and I realise how much easier it is to switch off from mindless scrolling and post your own content when you're not working! So, my tips for switching off from social media are not going to be ones that will involve taking a week off going to a silent retreat, but smaller things that can fit around your everyday life, cost you very little money and are very simple.
I'm sure everyone already does one or more of these things its more about reminding you that these are the easiest ways to switch off and live in the moment.
1. Read a book
I've been a little stuck in a rut recently with reading. I think the fast pace nature of video content is somewhat to blame and I'm finding books a bit slow. I need to read something that is quite fast paced to get me back into it. I get really addicted to reading when I read Jon Ronson books – he's one of my all time favourite writers and I would highly recommend The Psychopath Test and So You've Been Publicly Shamed.
2. Go for a walk
This is much easier for me now as I walk part of the way to work and I live in the countryside. But even if it's just your local park or a walk around your local area – it is the perfect way to clear your head.
3. Tidy your house
Now this one may seem a bit crazy but sometimes having a clear out and a tidy up can actually be really therapeutic. It is the movement of cleaning and tidying and working up a sweat that can leave you feeling like you can justify a bit more social media scrolling!
4. Meal plan your week with cook books
Again this may sound like a chore but it gets your creative juices flowing. Push yourself to create at least one new dish you've not made before and it will get you thinking about how you will present it on Instagram...
5. Listen to a podcast
Lately I've been listening to the new podcast from the creators of Serial. It's called S-Town and tells the story of John B. Macklemore who lives in Alabama and restores clocks for a living. The podcast was created all because John B. wrote to the producers asking them to investigate a murder... It is completely addictive and totally absorbing.
6. Be social IRL
Shocker... go out and socialise! Be that with your home friends, work mates, neighbours or family. Real life face-to-face conversation beats any social media interactions!
7. Paint
The other day I went to Paperchase and bought some felt tip pens and a blank notepad. I'm not proud of my drawings and some are just shapes and doodles but I do find it enjoyable. Everyone can draw even if it is just stick men!
8. Write
Even though this sounds so simple it can be a real stumbling block for a lot of people. People will say but what should I write!? The easiest thing I find to write is just my stream of consciousness. I will write in pen in a notepad what I've done that day, how I'm feeling or just random thoughts. It's a good way to express yourself in a space where no-one will judge you as no-one will read it – unlike social media!
9. Listen to music
Even if you don't have a music subscription service or any CDs you can still listen to thousands of songs for free through YouTube. You can spend hours drifting off listening to the lyrics of your favourite songs.
10. Write a letter
Finally, when was the last time you wrote a letter? Write a letter to someone who might be lonely or isn't going through a great time. It will force you to think about your writing and at the same time give back. You could even decorate the envelope with pretty stickers and drawings.
I hope this has been of some help – how do you switch off from social media?

March favourites 2017 | The Small Desk
I've been on a few walks this month and enjoyed living close to the countryside. This weekend I'm going to stay in my area and take full advantage of the trains not working! Hope everyone has a nice and relaxing weekend and here are my March favourites...
1. Dancer film premiere and live performance
I've been a little bit obsessed with the ballet dancer Sergei Polunin since watching his 'Take me to Church' video on YouTube. I actually found out about the video through Dogwoof films. I love the films they produce and distribute and was browsing their website and came across this new film, Dancer. I watched the trailer and became instantly hooked on this dancer!
I then found out they were selling tickets to the premiere and that there would be a live performance by Polunin. I bought four tickets as soon as they were released and hoped that my sister and my other friends would have deepened their obsession enough to want to attend it! Luckily I managed to get my sister, her friend and my friend to come and it was magical. It was at the London Palladium and they showed the film first and the performance was after, followed by a Q&A. The live performance was the same dance from the 'Take me to Church' video. It was a very surreal experience because I'd watched it online so many times, I couldn't really take it in! It is one of those nights I will never forget, and if you haven't seen the film I strongly advise you to, it is just brilliant.
2. Day off
The day after going to the premiere I had the day off work. My partner unfortunately couldn't take the day off, so I spent it alone. I hadn't had a full day off since Christmas (except weekends) and I felt I really needed it for my mental health. I did some drawing and some reading, and had a bath. I just took a day for myself. I think it's so important to do this: to sort of reset and get some perspective.
3. Went to see the fiance's family
On the first weekend of the month we went to see the fiance's family. They took us to a pancake house and we went to see his sister's new house. It was lovely to spend time with them and to talk about how the wedding plans are going.
4. Dinner with ex-colleague
One evening this month I went for dinner with an ex-colleague. We had Mexican and moaned about work and wedding planning. It was great!
5. Chinese
I had Chinese takeaway with the fiance twice this month. I'm so obsessed with our local Chinese takeaway. There's nothing like a Friday night in watching the TV with a full table of Chinese takeaway!
6. Makeup trial
I had my wedding makeup trial this month. I've found a really lovely makeup artist who I feel really comfortable with. The trial actually took about 3 hours and we chatted that whole time!
7. Indian with the girls
I went for an Indian meal with my school friends in town. The meal was great and I love love love seeing my friends, but the journey home was hell. The trains failed me completely and it took me 2.5 hours to get home instead of an hour! So that part was not fun.
8. Parents over for dinner
My parents came over for dinner and I cooked salmon en-croute, and my Mum brought a delicious apple crumble. It was lovely to be able to all sit round the table and cook them a full meal as obviously they've done that sooooo many times for me in the past!
9. New pans from my Mum
My Mum got a bit worried about the health effects of scratched non-stick pans and when she came for dinner I showed her scratched mine were and so she bought me a new set of stainless steel pans! And, she even dropped them off at my house! Total legend.
10. Grandma operation
My 87 year old Grandma had keyhole surgery to remove cancer, and she's going home next week! I went to see her in hospital last weekend and she's back to herself, reading poetry and refusing to watch TV.
11. Beauty and the Beast
I went to see Beauty and the Beast with one of my besties and it was amazing. I hadn't expected it to be quite so good but the soundtrack is brilliant and I'm in love with Gaston!
12. New cafe with the fiance
I went to the new cafe in the town I live in with my fiance and had a scrumptious avocado on toast dish. It's so nice to be able to stroll down the street to good food.
13. I, Daniel Blake
I've been meaning to watch this film for a long time, and one Sunday afternoon I decided to rent it from Google Play. It is an incredibly moving film and really makes you think. If you haven't watched it, I highly recommend you do. It's about the benefits system in the UK and how bureaucracy can stop it from doing its job properly.
14. Franco Manca
We went for pizza with a couple of friends – one of whom is an usher at our wedding. We had a good catch up and some tasty bread.
15. Work conferences x2
I've been to two conferences with work recently where I've met new people from my industry and actually found networking slightly easier. They're in my favourites as I think I've made progress on my social skills!
16. Wedding ring
This month I got my wedding band sorted. I went to pick it up with my Mum and we went for a delicious meal at Carluccio's afterwards. It was really nice to spend some one-on-one time.
17. Mother's Day
This Mother's Day we went for a walk with my Dad in our local area, and then my Mum joined us for dinner at our house, as she had been working. I cooked salmon and sweet potato wedges, followed my lemon cake. This time I managed to do main AND dessert! She's been looking after my Grandma almost every day this month so I felt it was very necessary to treat her.
18. Neighbour's for drinks
After work one evening we went to our neighbours for drinks again. We are very lucky to have such nice neighbours who we can socialise with!
19. Filming with work
I've not made many films with work before but we're making four at the moment and we started the first one yesterday. I'm not doing the filming, merely supervising and looking after the performers, but it is really fun and nice to get out of the office.
20. Staying off chocolate
Finally, I still haven't eaten chocolate! But, it's not easy and I say, bring on Easter and ALL the chocolate!
How has your March been? Looking forward to April and all the light evenings?

Keeping it simple: my everyday wear | The Small Desk
In the past few years I've been saving a lot of my money and trying not to buy any clothes, however this isn't always the best idea as clothing can have an enormous impact on how you feel day-to-day. I think it's important to revisit your style and your wardrobe once a year and see how you can make it easier for yourself to know what to shop for with your everyday wear, and to evaluate what's missing from your wardrobe.
For years my style has been about trying lots of different things and especially when I was a teenager I experimented a lot with what worked for me. Anyone remember Punkyfish!? Ahhh dear! But now I'm almost 30 I feel I know what I like wearing the most and what I feel most comfortable and confident in and that is the good old simple T-shirt, jumper and jeans combo. As long as all three are fairly up-to-date and new I think it can look professional for work and stylish for socialising. I'm also thanking my lucky stars that trainers have made a comeback in a big way!
Makeup-wise I've tried and tested a fair few foundations over the years and the Revlon colour match foundation wins by far for me. Although I did have a wedding make-up trial recently and she used Giorgio Armani and if it wasn't so expensive I would definitely buy that! Anyway, without further ado here is how I keep it simple...
Hair: dye it every 6 months – usually a balayage
Skin: Liz Earle superskin moisturiser, unfragranced – it smells weird the first time you use it (a bit like fish), but you get used to it and I can't smell it anymore. No-one else could ever smell it. I've used lots of different moisturisers in my time and this is by far the best and worth the money.
-Revlon colour match foundation
-Collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer
-Bobbi Brown shimmer brick
-Body Shop bronzer
-Maybelline lash sensational mascara
Top half
I usually keep it very simple and just wear a t-shirt and jumper, but if I'm going to an event I might wear a shirt. I've listed a few recent purchases...
This is where I'll go for a bit more detail.
Monki Floral Sweatshirt
Cos dot stitch high-neck jumper
Always stripped or plain.
ASOS stripe crew neck
ASOS linen mix fabric
Topshop vine floral embroidered chambray shirt
Bottom half
Topshop Leigh jeans – two black pairs, one blue pair. Although I really need to invest in some new ones as these are very old now and started to look baggy...
Occasion dresses and skirts (accepted normally only wear once)
Places I would buy these from:
-Anthropologie (if in sale)
Black socks – because then you never have to pair socks ever again!
Black 60 denier tights for dresses and skirts.
New Balance trainers
These are the first trainers in a long time to not give me any blisters and I think they may have actually made me feet softer!
For occasions I often buy myself a new pair of heels from ASOS or wear my Whistles boots that I got in the sale and keep getting reheeled.
So that's it! What tips do you have for keeping it simple with everyday wear?

February favourites 2017 | The Small Desk
We also started booking and buying more wedding stuff, for example my shoes and my ring. It's also been the month I've come to the conclusion that it's near impossible to dress four women who are about to turn 30 in all the same dress and expect it to work. Bridesmaid dresses are weird. Weddings are weird in general, but I'm just thinking of it as a big party with delicious food!
Although it's only 5th March whilst I'm writing this, February feels like a distant memory and I'm struggling to remember what I did last month! Luckily I keep a diary of events, which means I can list them here...
1. Chinese for one
I rarely get a takeaway for one, in fact I think this is only the second time I've done it, but my oh my was it great. My partner was out and it was a Friday night so I treated myself to a takeaway from our local Chinese and got everything I wanted and slobbed out and watched trash TV. It was bliss.
2. Wedding shoes and wedding ring
This month I bought my wedding shoes (two pairs for two dresses, diva!) and my wedding ring. I got my shoes from Kurt Geiger in Covent Garden.
3. Dinner with Dad
I went for a curry at Masala Zone with my Dad after work one evening. It was lovely to spend quality time chatting about life whilst enjoying delicious food.
4. Curry with neighbours
We tried out the local curry place again with our amazing neighbours. It was great to spend time with them but there was so much food and I'd had Masala Zone the night before!
5. Bridesmaids dresses day
I bought a shit ton of dresses from ASOS for all my bridesmaids to try and to pick one. It didn't quite work out but we had a lovely afternoon as one of them cooked a scrumptious vegan macaroni cheese.
6. Friend's birthday in East London
We celebrated my partner's best man's birthday all the way out in East London. It was lovely to see all his friends and I even bumped into one of my old school friends on the way home!
7. Friends over for dinner
We had our friends, who are my partner's friends from home but have been going out for 9 years as well, over for dinner. I cooked salmon en-croute (from a pack) and chips. It was yummy and so nice to spend quality time with them as we used to live round the corner from each other.
8. 9 years Chinese
On 15th Feb we celebrated 9 years by getting a takeaway Chinese!
9. Dinner at friend's – avocado pasta
We had another bridesmaid trying on session that didn't work out at one of the other bridesmaid's houses and she cooked a delicious vegan avocado pasta dish. Whether or not the dresses work out it's always a great excuse to spend quality time with friends.
10. Thai restaurant with partner
On the Friday after our anniversary we celebrated properly by going out to an amazing Thai restaurant not far from where we live. See photo above for my beautifully presented Pad Thai.
11. Grandma visit
We visited my Grandma who is very ill at the moment and shared some tea and biscuits with her.
12. Uni talk
I had the surreal experience this month of being invited back to my old Uni to talk about careers, and specifically my own career. I had to provide a biography of myself and everything! I had to talk for half an hour, which is the longest I've ever spoken for, and then there was an HOUR Q&A!
13. Pub quiz
We tackled the pub quiz again with our neighbours. We didn't do well but I learnt that the old capital of England was Winchester!
14. Friend for lunch
I met one of my old school friends for lunch at the British Museum cafe. It was lovely to see her and to catch up.
15. Sister and Dad over
My sister and Dad came over to my house and I made them dinner and pancakes! As I said before it was a great feeling to finally cook dinner for my Dad in our now not-so-new house.
16. Cousin's new baby
Finally, my younger cousin, who is only 18 months older than me (scary!) had her first child, a little girl. We went to visit her and had a lovely photo taken of all the women in my family except for one of my aunties. She is super cute! I can't wait to see how she develops and grows.
How was your February? Spring is just around the corner! Bring on 26th March when the clocks go forward!

January favourites 2017 | The Small Desk
One thing I'm really concerned about for 2017 is climate change, and so I've made a promise to myself to enjoy more of the outdoors. This month I went on two really long walks and took advantage of the vast amount of public footpaths the UK has to offer. I used Ordinance Survey maps and their app to put together a 12 mile walk that had a pub stop midway. As much as I love the little house we now live in I need to be outside to gain perspective.
In terms of doing my bit for climate change I am still yet to purchase a car and use public transport to get everywhere. I also don't eat meat and I'm trying to get better at recycling. If anyone has any tips on how I can do more for climate change please let me know in the comments below. Anyway, trying to be positive, here are the best bits about my January...
1. Wedding food tasting
This month we invited a caterer over to my parents house to do a food tasting for our wedding. The food was incredible, the caterer was such a nice guy and so we booked him! It's such a relief to have the food booked as I keep reading about how it's the bit most people talk about after the day has finished! We also always said we wanted to have amazing food at the wedding but on a budget and I think we've just about managed it. The only thing major to book is the band, which is proving tricky! If anyone has any good wedding band suggestions please let me know.
2. Practice walk with partner and Dad
Now that I live in the countryside I have to think of ways to entice my friends out here to visit me... I suggested a country walk but the answer was only if there is a pub halfway... Now, I don't normally visit a pub on a walk but I managed to find a route that did. Before I took a group of friends I thought I should practice it and bring my Dad along who is the King of map reading! It was about 10 miles in total and was knackering but so energising at the same time.
3. Pub quiz
This month we've started going to our local pub quiz with our next door neighbours. It's so nice to be able to go out after work in my local area and not worry about the last train home. We've now been twice, the first time we got an awfully low score of 7 out of 30 and the second time we went we significantly improved and got a much better 23 out of 30!
4. Partner's birthday
This month it was my partner's birthday and we celebrated by taking a half day off work and buying his suit for the wedding, and then at the weekend we went to a pub in Pimlico with 10 or so of his friends. I bought him tickets to a coffee festival, a scented candle and a beautiful coffee mug from Heal's.
5. Big walk with friends
Of course the big walk had to be in my favourites considering how much prep it took! We had to go a a slightly different route back because of some maintenance work being carried out on the route that wouldn't allow you to pass so the route ended up being 12 miles! It was so much fun though and everyone ended up staying for pizza at ours afterwards.
6. Coat hooks up
Really lame one I know but after 8 months of living here we now finally have somewhere to put our coats! We got the hooks from a Danish company called Normann Copenhagen. We actually managed to buy them with an Amazon voucher my partner got from work, which was handy as they are pretty expensive.
7. Dinner at Franco Manca
I went for dinner at Franco Manca with a really old friend and talked deep about various life topics and enjoyed good pizza.
8. Garden sorted
We had some work done on our garden and now we finally have a nice area to put a table and chairs for when the sun comes out. Bring on summer!
9. Day of art
I work in the arts so sometimes I avoid going to galleries and museums on the weekend as it can feel a bit like work. But I have to remember how much I love art and that it's ok to love what you do enough to sort of do it on the weekend as well!
My oldest friend who I've known since I was born came over from Ireland and we visited the Pace Gallery exhibition that is in collaboration with teamLab and had lunch in the Royal Academy cafe. We chatted loads about life and relationships and it was great to catch up with her.
Then on the same day I met one of my bridesmaids and went to the Tate and the cafe for cake. We played guess the artist, because we're cool.
10. Dinner with parents
My final favourite of the month is going to my parents' house for dinner where my Mum cooked us a delicious vegetable curry. Also, I got to cuddle my cat, which was obviously the main reason for visiting, he he.
How was your January? Did you get up to anything fun?

January films 2017 | The Small Desk
January 1st
1. Minimalism: A documentary about important things
I wanted to watch this documentary after seeing the trailer: it talked about how we are always on the hunt for some'thing' to improve our lives and make us happier. I really related to this idea and wanted to hear what they had to say.
The documentary focuses around two guys who have a website called 'The Minimalists' but you also hear from neuroscientists and other strong believers in minimalism. It looks at minimalism as a way to escape capitalism and its endless circle of consumerism. For a while I watched it thinking, 'ok, yeah two bachelors living as minimalists, but what if you had kids?', and then they spoke to two fathers who had families and they do still try to make it work, but it doesn't look easy.
I think what I liked about the documentary is that they weren't being too strict about minimalism, they were saying that you could take the parts of it you liked and put that into your life in an attempt to make yourself happier.
One thing they did talk about that I might try one day is about having 33 items of clothing (including shoes, coats and bags) – I went and counted my clothing and I have over 110 items... they say it frees your mind to have less, and I completely understand where they are coming from. I like the idea of living with less but even if I lived with less I know I would still spend the same amount of money, I'd have fewer things but they'd be more expensive! It's a thought provoking film and I would recommend it, I'm just not sure how practical the movement really is.

2. The Lobster
This film is devoid of emotion yet it is about finding a lifelong partner. It is a bizarre film, it reminds me a bit of Wes Anderson films. It is beautifully shot and has a great cast with Colin Farrell and Rachel Weisz as the main characters. The actors speak in a very matter of fact way and have conversations about facts rather than emotions.
The premise of the story is that Colin Farrell's character goes to a hotel that allows you to stay 45 days to find a partner, but if you do not find a partner in this time you will be turned into an animal of your choice. Most people do not want to be turned into an animal and so if they have not found a partner in this time they escape to the forest, but there are still rules there. There is also the option to escape to the city, but again there are rules there. It is a weird portrayal of societal norms around relationships and the implicit rules that govern us.
I think you need to watch it more than once to really understand it, but it is a difficult watch and not one I particularly want to watch again anyhow. I'm glad I watched it but I'm not sure I'd recommend it. It's a difficult watch but clever and thought provoking. I'm really not sure how I feel about it. It's in English but feels like world cinema, not surprising though as it was co-written by Greek producer, Yorgos Lanthimos.

3. The Hunt
A friend at work lent me the DVD of this film, as I said I really enjoy world cinema, and she said this was one of the best. It is an incredibly powerful film – you forget they are all actors and become completely immersed in the film. I hardly ever jump at films or react that strongly because I know they are actors but this one made me jump out of my seat, I've never had such a strong reaction to a film before.
The plot is harrowing, and I don't suggest it's one for evening viewing. I watched it at about 4.30pm after a really long walk. It is set in a small Danish village and is all in Danish, so you have to watch with subtitles. It is about a man called Lucas who is accused by a little girl named Klara of sexual abuse. He works at a nursery and Klara attends this nursery, but she is also his best friend's daughter. Klara shows strong feelings for Lucas and gives him a present of some beaded hearts, which he rejects and tells her to give it to one of the boys at nursery, as sort of revenge she tells the head of the nursery that Lucas has shown her his genitals. Clearly as she is so young, she has no idea what this sort of accusation means for Lucas.
The film shows how the accusation develops and how Lucas and the small community he lives in deal with this. Lucas is also trying to regain custody of his child from his ex-wife. Basically within one month his whole life has fallen apart. The director of this film has clearly put a lot of time and research into this subject matter and it is incredibly sensitively written. It's the sort of film that doesn't leave you and you'll be thinking about it for days afterwards.

4. My Scientology Movie
It was my partner's birthday and we decided to rent a film from Google Play: this one came up as a suggested film. To be honest, anything with Louis Theroux in I'm 100% going to watch and pretty much guaranteed to enjoy. He is such an entertaining journalist who is extraordinarily clever with his approach to interviewing.
The film is absolutely genius. At first I'd heard some criticisms of it because it didn't really get into the practicing Scientology church but the way he decided to direct the film instead was creative brilliance.
The fascinating thing about the Scientology movement is the film production and how they use actors, and how many actors have become scientologists. Theroux in parallel uses actors for his film to portray the scientologists he cannot get access to. The film edges on the focusing solely on the dark side of the church but it is careful to balance it with other schools of thought and reads aloud letters from the church to him that express their concern of their portrayal.
I would thoroughly recommend this film if you enjoy Theroux's interviewing style. I'm not sure how much 'new' information I learnt, but it is worth watching just for Theroux.

January 25th
5. The Brit Who Tried to Kill Trump
Michael Sandford tried to kill Trump at one of his rallies campaigning for presidency, but it's not as simple as that sounds. Michael has long suffered with mental health issues and has a history of being a very loving, caring person with no criminal past.
This documentary is one of the best and most sensitively told I have seen on BBC Three. It follows his family's journey to find out his sentencing with a republican judge in an American court with Trump now as president. It is an incredibly moving story and well worth watching. I won't tell you what happens as I don't want to spoil it but what I can say is that it's a completely unique story that will be remembered for a long time.

December favourites 2016 | The Small Desk
December has been a really fun month, apart from having a very stressful beginning to the month at work. However from the 22nd December onwards I didn't have to go to work, which has been absolute bliss. I need to take more weeks like this where I just hang around at home, get up really late and watch films and read books. It's so damn relaxing, and it makes you feel you really have a life outside of work.
The end of December is one of my favourite times of year because so many people are off work and de-stressing and there is a positive feeling in the air. This month has been about enjoying being with my partner, friends and family and not trying to achieve anything! So refreshing!
1. Friend's bottomless prosecco birthday brunch
At the beginning of the month I celebrated a good friend of mine and my partner's birthday at Villandry on Great Portland Street.
2. Christmas lunch with old school friends
I invited three of my old school friends round for a Christmas lunch and 'craft' day. Needless to say the crafting element was more for the lols than to be taken seriously!
3. New curtains
My mum made us new curtains for our living room. They are absolutely gorgeous and make our living room so much cosier. I'm obsessed with them.
4. Neighbours over for drinks
Our neighbours came over to ours for some mince pies and wine. It's so nice to be able to socialise with our next door neighbours as it's so easy to get home!
5. Work Christmas party
We had our work Christmas party this month where we played a quiz and then had a late lunch at a swanky Italian restaurant.
6. Winchester Christmas market
My partner and I went to visit Winchester as he has never been before. The Christmas market was on and it was so festive. We went for a piece of cake and a smoothie and browsed the cute little independent shops there. If you haven't been I thoroughly recommend going, apparently it is the best place to live in the UK as well!
7. Seven and a half mile walk
Now that I basically live in the countryside we've been trying to go on more walks and this month we successfully went on a mega long walk straight from our front door. The weather was perfect for it as well.
8. Pizza Express for friend's birthday
Always love a Pizza Express – this time I went with my bestie from Uni to celebrate her birthday. We splashed out and had all three courses – it was excellent.
9. Mince pies with parents
My parents came over to give my partner his Christmas presents and we went to our local cafe for mince pies.
10. Partner's parents over
I've started using partner instead of fiance because I can't be bothered to find the 'e' with the accent all the time! Sorry! Anyway, yes, the partner's parents came over to swap presents and we put on a nice buffet-style lunch for them.
11. Christmas with my partner
We celebrated with a meal of salmon and roast potatoes and then opened presents to each other.
12. Christmas Day
13. To the neighbour's for drinks
We went over to our neighbour's for drinks and to see their new bathroom!
14. Lunch with my partner
We just went out in our local area for lunch but we don't go out for meals much anymore as we're trying to be good and save for our wedding, so it felt like a real treat.
15. Home day
I've had a few of these now, and ahhhhh, dream!
16. New Year's Eve
Finally I celebrated the last day of the year with my old school friends and now my head hurts.
Happy New Year! How was your December?

New Year's Resolutions: 2017 | The Small Desk
Happy New Year!
1. Only eat one sweet thing a day
Hmm... yeah, not sure this one really worked out! I have been more conscious, but not really succeeded.
2. Get a bike
Sadly, this one didn't happen either but I'd like to roll it into next year.
3. See more of the UK
Well, I went to Snowdonia and I've moved to a different area – so I'd say I have achieved this.
4. Earn more
5. Buy a house
6. Experiment with new recipes
Meh, not so much!
7. Go to more shows, exhibitions, talks, gigs, etc.
I guess I sort of did, but nowhere near as many as I'd like to have been to.
8. Learn a new skill
If you count house buying as a skill, then yes!
2017 New Year's Resolutions
This should be an easy one now that I live in the countryside. Basically. I've lived in cities all my life so living in a town is the countryside for me!
2. Eat less chocolate
Every year I try to do this and fail, but maybe this year I can defeat my addiction?! Maybe...
3. Go to more cultural events
Rolling this over from last year as I didn't go to enough.
4. Watch more film
Think I might go on Amazon now and buy a load of DVDs... ah such a hard life, hehe.
5. Get an amazing camera
This may or may not happen as I'm saving for my wedding...
6. Do more good
This is a weird one but I do often feel my life is very self-indulgent and I would like to try and take the time to do more good even if it's only small things.
7. Blog more
Looking back on 2016 and seeing I only achieved 34 blog posts makes a little sad and I don't want to let this blog die, so I will try harder this year.
8. Write more of my novel
I think I've written about 3,000 words so far...
How was your 2016? Have you set any New Year's Resolutions?

Bangalore, Hyderabad: Influential technology consultant Forrester Research Inc. has asked customers of Satyam Computer Services Ltd to begin reviewing their contracts amid concerns of potential management change or a potential sale after 10 January, when the board of the embattled software services firm meets to try and extricate itself from a corporate governance mess.

Satyam, India's fourth-largest software firm by revenues, counts giants such as General Electric Co., Nissan Motor Co. Ltd and General Motors Corp., among its 690 clients who use a portfolio of its services.
"A management miscue of this magnitude and an attempt to shift the company strategy 180 degrees from the current business model has to raise a red flag for Satyam accounts and prospects," wrote analysts at the US technology researcher in a 30 December report.
Facing the ire: Satyam is facing a crisis since Raju led a move to use Satyam's money to buy two firms owned by his family members. Madhu Kapparath / Mint
A Satyam spokeswoman said her firm had made its case to Forrester and had seen the report. "We largely don't agree with what has come out with the report and we have not seen any client cancellations," she said.
Satyam is facing a serious management credibility crisis since chairman B. Ramalinga Raju led a move to use $1.6 billion (Rs7,760 crore) of Satyam's money to buy two infrastructure firms owned by his family members under the pretext of diversification.
Following an investor revolt that saw its shares plunge, Satyam has seen four independent directors resign, including venture capitalist Vinod Dham, a day after Raju's family also disclosed that its relatively small 8.6% stake in the firm may have shrunk following stock sales by financial institutions that lent them money against the their stakes.

Late on Tuesday night, Dham, who hadn't given specific reasons for his resignation, told Mint in an email: "The communication by the company, raising new issues arising from dilution of the promoter's stake in the company, as well as inadequate relevant information in a timely manner has made it difficult for me to discharge my duties effectively as an independent board member."

Satyam could be a potential candidate for firms such as Hewlett Packard Co. and Logica as they look to expand their offshore footprint, the Forrester report said, adding the confusion could benefit rivals such as Tata Consultancy Services Ltd, Infosys Technologies Ltd and India-delivery focused Congizant Solutions.
Satyam's shares rose 5.95% to close at Rs170.15 on Wednesday, sharply lower than when the deals were announced on 16 December.

Life Simplified (Server Change!)
So how do you go from a rather large and obtuse server to a very small and simple server? Easily I say. You simply install Ubuntu 7.04 Server Edition onto your Mac mini then follow the "perfect server" tutorial over at how-to forge. Then you create a tarball of your /var/www folder on your old server and secure copy it over to your new server. You export your ISPConfig databases and then re-import them. You recreate any user accounts along the way and wa-la, you have a new web server with the exact same pre-existing data.

Filled with love
Pink card saying
You are amazing!
Filled with love
Pink card saying
You are amazing!
The flickering sound of a bird nearby told me to stop listening to old thoughts. It was time, to let go, time to erase the shot: me and you buying the wedding ring.
Saturday afternoon, crowded place, tangled hair, no makeup, friends all around – your friends, spring is on the way. We are in May.
We haven't talked to each other for 3 days now. I cry. You call me stupid. You threaten to leave, this place, me. We are engaged. The wedding is planned for July. A tear, just one, a need, simple one, a word, not the good one, could ignite a terrible rage within you. I know. I will smile. It's better for me. You like it. You like when I shut up and smile. You think I want to please you. You love when I play the good wife. Shut up and listen to your man. you know best. I just want peace. I stand firm against the need to shout and tell the world how messy my life is with you, how crazy you are. Your smile is fake. Mine is a self-denial one.
I open my jewelry box, take out the ring. I am ready to let it go. I sold it for 20€. I don't want it anymore. It's the last thing that links us together as husband & wife. We are back being two strangers that will never meet again. The image – me and you buying the wedding ring – is fading away. It's blurry. I can now say something like this, out loud: you are an asshole, a crazy bastard!
Blue drops of sky
Flourishing dreams
Yellow light
New beginning
Every day miracles
Contained in a bubble
Of happy smiles
Tender thoughts
A bunch of stars
Angels counting
The blessings that we hide

This does not happen often. I always have too many things in my head, too many plans to make, too many ideas to organize, too many agenda notes to convey. My head is a chaotic place.
Sometime I find myself silent while walking, listening to the sound of my steps on the ground – on the wet pavements or on the freshly cut grass. My head seems so light for a moment. I enjoy the moment, knowing it won't last. I stop to breathe for a couple of seconds and I promise myself I'll do so more often.
It's not that difficult to take a short break but we often forget, trapped in our crazy lives.
Today is a new day.
Today is a day of Love – Peace – Light and Joy
Today is a day about
Sharing the Magic
Enjoying the Moment
Today is a day of
Magical encounters
Infinite power
Today is a good day
Today is a beautiful day!
Oh this song!
It's not about Sinatra. I love his voice. I love the song.
It's about a memory. Yes. A bittersweet one.
The day is a sweet memory. The days after are pretty bad ones. The days after are messing up with the image of:
Me, wearing a wedding gown and him, holding my hand against his chest, telling me how much he is happy, how beautiful I am.
The image made others jealous. Of the way I looked at him and the way he looked at me. Bullshit.
He made the promise to fly me to the moon. Who could resist this? I should have followed him. Sinatra obviously!
I used to write in English every day. I miss writing in English.
I love writing in French too. But it's not the same. I miss the connection with something different, something that told me at some stage "you're free".
Maybe it has to do with not mastering all grammatical issues in this second language. In French it feels like I have to follow established rules and this triggers a bit the soul of what I want to say, of the stories I want to tell.
Anyway, this year I decided to write more, to write every day. Not for long, just 2, 5 or 10 minutes every day.
I already wrote 32 short stories, thoughts, poems, words…
I think I will keep doing it in French and I will start doing it in English here. I will let words, quotes, photos inspire me. I will let go and let God guide me on the road…
Till then, take care, love life, live fully every moment and smile!
Our relationship is already summed up in a big file, full of notes, letters, forecast budgets, solicitor fees, court ruling papers, translations, testimonies. It took 4 years to eventually close our case.
Our relationship is contained into a manuscript of 25 chapters, 165 pages, 68 000 words. I never thought I could achieve this one day. I should thank you for this. You gave me matters to discuss, feelings to explore, emotions to review in details, issues to solve. Your madness left invisible scars on my skin, in my mind. You gave me the chance to heal myself, to reconnect with the "true me". I should thank you for this.
I need a couple of hours to finalize our 4 years relationship. I need a couple of hours to explain what happened after.
When I left I thought it was over. I was wrong. Another story started, the one that would crushed my heart in pieces but the one that would take me to the beautiful light after the chaos of the thunderstorm.
I always loved jigsaw. You must have known this. You don't know anything about me. It's the most difficult one I had to do, putting the pieces of my heart back together. It took me ages. Every time I thought I was on the right path, something went wrong and I had to start all over again. I am still working on it.
At the beginning writing was evidence. I needed to get you out of my head. I needed space to let go. I needed words to get rid of guilt. Healing process – dealing with grief. Ups and many downs. Then writing became a way to free my anger. I had so much resentment in me. There could not be any forgiveness. After a while, anger vanished and I started seeing things a different way. I wanted to understand.
Why you?
Why "yes", when all my heart was shouting "no"?
Why I let you play with me in such a terrible way?
What happened in me? I had always been a happy child, a dreamer, a girl in love with life, a smiling lady. I had always been surrounded by loving and caring people.
What made me choose you? What made me think I would save you? What made me think you would save me? Save me from what?
Writing gave me the chance to answer some of these questions. Now I know why I want to finish this story. Sharing my experience is key. Sharing the worst before the best. Sharing to help. Sharing to tell the truth about you, about me, about the magnificent light, about the violence of your silences, about the pain inside my chest, about your status of victim, about my resilience, my faith.

Today Ali presents Brene Brown's new book, The Hustle for Worthiness. I went to Brene's (don't you love this name?) page and I read:
Wholehearted living is about engaging in our lives from a place of worthiness. It means cultivating the courage, compassion, and connection to wake up in the morning and think, No matter what gets done and how much is left undone; I am enough.Lord, I feel unworthy so often. How I would love to wake up in the morning and not care what gets done and how much is left undone. How I yearn to be able to say, "I am enough."
It's going to bed at night thinking, Yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable and sometimes afraid, but that doesn't change the truth that I am worthy of love and belonging.
I also noticed on Brene's page that she has written a slew of books, and they all sound awesome. You can see two of the links here. The Hustle book isn'tt on Amazon yet.
I notice she gets into the "perfectionism" characteristic. Now, that applies to us scrapbookers for sure. I can't count how many otherwise sane ladies I've tried to help get their kids' photos in albums, and they ended up stashing all the products they invested in under the bed or in the hall closet because they couldn't get past the "it has to be perfect" idealism. One even admitted it out loud in a group of scrapbookers. "If it's not perfect, I can't do it."
Her children are never going to have a legacy in photo albums.
Now, of course, we can slip the photos into acrylic slots in albums, and I'd say that's far better than never doing anything, but that doesn't include the writing, which is necessary in my opinion. Unless one uses journal cards and slips them into some of the pockets. I love that technique myself, and I've done a few of those albums.
Oh, and the digital picture frames! Hey, how cool are those?
Dital scrapbooks. Those are so easy to do. And quick.
So we were talking about authenticity, weren't we? Maybe that's one of the reasons people shy away from scrapbooking, or writing. Some people do the scrapbooks for creativity's sake alone. That's ok. Most of us, it's about the kids and grandkids. The moms, dads, uncles, aunts, cousins, sisters, brothers, pets.
It's about making time stand still for just a little longer while we remember.
It's about showing our authentic self. It's about getting real.
Or it should be. Thanks, Ali.

Are they pimples? Or, are they blackheads? Or, are they both pimples and blackheads? In other words, are pimples and blackheads one and the same? In order to answer these questions, there needs to be knowledge of what pimples and blackheads are. This article aims to supply some information.
What are Pimples?
Another name for a pimple is zit, or spot. A pimple is a small skin lesion that can appear as a pustule or a papule. Skin lesions are inflammation of the skin. They are infected oil glands, due to the presence of bacteria in the glands. The glands fill up with pus, and become inflamed.
What are Blackheads?
Another name for a blackhead is an open comedo, and may appear as a yellow, brown, or blackish bump on the skin. It is a kind of acne, and is therefore caused by excess oil blocking the pores. The contents of these bumps consist of keratin and sebum, which becomes dark when it is mixed with air, hence the black appearance.
The Answer
The answer to the last question in the first paragraph is, simply, 'NO'. Pimples and blackheads are not one and the same, even though they are both a type of acne.
Let's Compare
|The contents of pimples can be spilt, spreading infection to the surrounding tissue.
|The contents of blackheads are usually hard and cannot be spilt.
|Contain pus.
|Contain no pus.
|Found mainly on the face, back, and chest.
|Found mainly on the forehead and nose.
|A type of acne.
|A type of acne.
|When oil and dead skin cells, as well as bacteria, become trapped in a hair follicle, the follicle swells and later bursts. This causes the infection to spread to the tissues nearby, resulting in the redness and swelling that are characteristic of inflammation, which is a distinguishing feature of pimples.
|When dirt, oil, and dead skin cells block the pores on the surface of the skin, little bumps appear. They do not become inflamed, but because their contents are oxidized, that is, mixed with air, the bumps appear as little black dots, which some persons mistake for dirt and treat harshly.
Care and Treatment
Even though they have different properties, both pimples and blackheads can be removed from the skin without the use of acne treatments. Simple home remedies are thought to be very effective and fast acting. Dedication and disciplined care seem to do the trick. Certain instructions need to be followed. The suggestions are –
- The face should be cleansed two times per day, since pimples and blackheads are likely to appear more on dirty skin. A mild facial soap or suitable cleanser may be used to take off excess oil, makeup, debris, and bacteria from the skin.
- Witch hazel is recommended for the skin, as it can be naturally substituted for toner or even astringent. It is said to be able to dry up pimples and blackheads as it assists in the balancing of the oil levels of the skin. Daily use of witch hazel promotes clear skin.
- The skin should be steamed. A bowl should be filled with boiled water, the head covered with a towel, and the face held over the bowl. This would allow the steam to enter the pores, drawing the impurities from deep inside the skin, thereby promoting a clear complexion. If steaming of the skin is done one or two times per week, fewer pimples and blackheads would be experienced.
- Equal parts of baking soda and water can be mixed to form a paste. This paste should be applied to the pimples and blackheads, and allowed to remain for 20 minutes before rinsing it off. Baking soda effectively kills bacteria and absorbs excess oil, and this helps to rid the skin of pimples and blackheads.
- Lemon juice may be rubbed on the blackheads and pimples. Because lemon juice is naturally acid, it effectively absorbs the oil that causes blackheads and pimples. The skin is dried out only to the point of promoting an even complexion, which helps the skin look healthier and smoother.
- The skin should be exfoliated. This can be accomplished by creating a scrub with a mixture of equal parts of water and granulated sugar. The scrub should be applied to the skin, and circular motions employed in exfoliating the area. Since acne is partially caused by dead skin cells on the skin surface blocking pores, exfoliating the skin can remove, and may even prevent, blackheads and pimples. This activity can be employed twice or thrice weekly.
There is even an eight-step treatment for removing pimples and blackheads overnight. The instructions go like this –
- With clean hands, wash face with a gentle cleanser and warm water. Dry off with a clean towel, to avoid adding acne-causing bacteria to the face, which would only result in more pimples and blackheads.
- Apply a warm compress to the affected area, opening up the pores. This will make it easier for dirt and bacteria that are trapped under the skin to be removed.
- Using a Q-tip or cotton ball, apply a little raw apple cider vinegar to the pimples or blackheads. Apple cider vinegar effectively deals with any extra oil and bacteria on the skin.
- A clean cold compress may then be applied to tighten the pores and reduce swelling. This can be done several times.
- Before going to bed, prepare a mixture of baking soda and fresh lemon juice. A thick paste should result, and this should be put on the pimples and blackheads and left overnight, then rinsed off in the morning.
- Drink a lot of water. Eight glasses daily is the recommended amount.
- Use clean pillowcases, as dirty ones may be a source of bacteria reaching the face.
- Get a lot of sleep. Similar to water, the skin needs sleep in order to revitalize itself. At least seven hours are recommended.

Ggrandfather Valcik's line for us. I thought his estimate was quite
reasonable. Six months later we received a report taking TWO lines
(both my ggrandfather's and ggrandmother's) line back 5 additional
generations. And the price was less than his quote!
