Dream job alert: test out the retirement lifestyle, and get paid for it

Anyone who knows me, knows that I consist of two wolves, one wolf is a sassy drag queen and the other is a fabulous old lady who just wants to be left alone to chill and eat jaffa cakes. So when I discovered this competition I was absolutely delighted and thought I would share as, who wouldn’t turn down a weekend of luxury? Not moi!

You can now get paid to live as a retiree for the weekend 

  • Independent living provider Retirement Villages recruits two ‘retirement testers’
  • Paid roles for two friends or a couple, of £200, involve reviewing and living as a retiree for two days in its Essex-based luxury community
  • With 9% of under 40s yet to consider retirement, paid experience aims to encourage forward thinking and long-term goals
  • https://www.retirementvillages.co.uk/blog/get-paid-to-experience-retirement/ 

February 2023: Independent retirement living provider Retirement Villages is offering the dream job of the year for 2023; the chance to retire early AND get paid to review the experience. 

The team at Retirement Villages is looking to hire two Retirement Testers to stay in one of its luxury communities and live as a retiree for a weekend. These all-expenses paid roles will involve the applicants fully immersing themselves into retired life, reviewing the experience compared to original perceptions of retired living, and sharing their opinion on what their ideal retirement would look like.

Its recent study[1] found that almost one in ten – or 9% – of adults aged under 40 have yet to consider their retirement priorities or aspirations. Because of this, Retirement Villages wanted to hire two young adults and offer them the chance to throw themselves into retired life for the weekend for an authentic experience and to really consider their futures.

Some Retirement Villages Locations

Lucy Black, from Retirement Villages Group says: “Retirement comes around much quicker than any of us can imagine, so it is great to plan and prepare for its arrival; whether this be considering key factors like where you will live or how much money you have saved for it. 

We strongly urge every young adult to take the time to consider this milestone sooner rather than later so financial, health, geographical and social provisions can be planned for, and they have peace of mind when thinking about their future

We already offer a try before you buy, complimentary programme for prospective residents, and these new “roles” will build on that and  enable today’s young adults to experience retired life firsthand, helping them to properly consider their future. We all dream of finishing work and retiring, but we’re intrigued to see how this compares and exceeds expectations of retired living for today’s young adults, so they can give a new perspective on our villages. We’re excited to see what our new recruits make of a weekend as a retiree in our Debden Grange community in Newport, Essex!”

About the roles

Applications are now being taken on the site: https://www.retirementvillages.co.uk/blog/get-paid-to-experience-retirement/ 

Some key information about the roles include:

  • Applications close on 24 February 2023
  • The paid role will take place before the end of June 2023
  • The paid role and weekend stay will be all expenses paid (bed and breakfast), with an additional fee of £200 per couple / £100 per person.
  • Applicants should be aged between 18-40 years old
  • Applicants should be those who ‘dream of retirement’ and looking to see what this stage of their life could really look like.
  • The job involves a stay and review of its luxury Debden Grange village in Newport, Essex: https://www.retirementvillages.co.uk/our-villages/debden-grange/  

Let me know if you enter and if you win, by all means invite me. I’ll happily just keep to myself, promise!

Bunnypudding attempts to learn how to do Acrylic nail extensions at home 

I blame my former therapist for these purchases. It’s self care, It’s acrylic nails and it’s potential for some bad life choices. 

No snark either, Holly my lovely former therapist from back in 2021 told me as part of BDD that I should find something about my body that I can pamper and be whimsical about. It didn’t take long for me to find that activity as I met my fabulous friend, Annabelle, from Really Wellness for lunch and to get our nails done. This is where I discovered acrylic nail extensions and a love affair was born. After the manicure, I was elated and I couldn’t stop looking at how lovely my nails were where I was doing things. Reaching for the ketchup became a hand model audition. Even when I was looking like a swamp witch around my house, my nails still looked amazing. This was magic! 

So, yeah in hindsight I actually blame Annabelle!

There are many reasons to want to leant to do acrylics at home such as:

  • You are hyper-fixated on it and need to master the skill.
  • You know that you cannot quit beautiful nails and thus, need to learn to save money. 
  • You are clumsy and so, need to be able to repair them at a moment’s notice.
  • Shopping is fun. Don’t you judge me? 

All are valid.

 To do Aryclic nails yourself at home you’ll need: 

  • Acrylic nail powerTo create the acrylic nail 
  • Acrylic Liquid Glass Pot to store the Liquid Monomer, ideally have one with a lid as Acrylic Monomer smells! 
  • Acrylic Nail Brush (Kolinsky Hair) to mix and spread the acrylic power and monomer onto nail. Ideally, Kronsky nail brushes are recommended, but many lie in their adverts so if buying online make sure to read reviews. 
  • Monomer (Acrylic Liquid)to create the acrylic mix 
  • Acetoneto remove any gel polish etc 
  • Nail Tips if you are adding nail extensions 
  • Nail Glue To attach nail extensions (If required) 
  • Gel Nail Polish If you are using a gel nail colour rather than using a cloured pigment acrylic powder 
  • Gel Base Coatto help set a strong foundation for the gel nail polish 
  • Gel Top Coat to create a strong protective top layer for the nails 
  • Nail file – for nail prep and shaping
  • Nail dehydrator – to dry out the nail for better acrylic stickage
  • Nail primer to prime the nail for acrylic application

Bigger Purchases: 

  • UV Lamp to dry the gel nail polish, otherwise it won’t set. 
  • Nail Drill To shape and file the nail – these are a godsend when in a rush. 

Pssst!....This may seem like a lot of items but once brought you can save hundreds pretty quickly by performing your own acrylic nail application at home. There are kits available online which include many or all of these items in one bundle. I will post about the best nail kits for beginners in an upcoming post as for now, it’s all about trying and reviewing before I can recommend and compare anything – gotta be fair about these things.

Ahoy there, it’s self care!  

It’s safe to say that I have been feeling bloody awful as of late, I’ve taken on far too much with very little support and I have burnt myself out. So I have had to take action and start to regain control of my life so I have hired my first employee at my business to help with the workload and started to change lifestyle habits. Below are some of the ways that I have taken to help me glow up!

Kicking the Booze 

I’ve actually taken a bit of a break from drinking. It wasn’t serving me anymore and was actually beginning to get in the way of things that I was trying to do. I feel so much better not waking up with a hangover and find that I can do a lot more with my time. This doesn’t mean I’ve given drinking up entirely but for now, I am seeing myself as mainly a nondrinker for the foreseeable. 

You are what you eat 

The pandemic messed around with many people’s diets but as I now work from home I make sure that everything I buy is fresh so that I can make healthy homemade food every day. I was guilty of being the person who ordered deliveroo every day so this is one way that I can fight back again the podge and make sure I am nourishing my body as well as I can every day. If you have any healthy recipes that you would like to share, let me know below! 

Surround yourself with beautiful things 

Since setting up my business I have mainly been working from home and as my flatmate has recently moved out, it was time to redecorate to make the place feel more comfortable for me. After getting up to date with the latest 2022 interior design trends I went to work choosing my new Handmade cushions and made to measure curtains – which has made a huge difference as I am starting to like my flat a bit more again, which is a miracle after being trapped in it for several lockdowns. 

Exercising like a champ

I have been making sure to go out and exercise every day without fail now. I hadn’t realised until I brought a fitness tracker just how few steps and exercise I was doing every day – never good! As the weather is starting to get bright and sunnier I am excited to be able to use my evenings more to get out and about more. I am certainly not a winter gal and hate it being cold and dark earlier in the day. Eurgh.

New Eyewear, don’t care! 

As my job is mainly me staring at a screen all day – the joys of working in digital marketing, I have made sure to visit my local opticians to get my eyewear updated – which I love, as I like my glasses to be statement pieces. I’ve also ventured into the world of contact lenses as well after becoming paranoid about ‘Digital Eye’. 

For a bit of fun, you can even test your eye health over on www.contactlenses.co.uk where they have created two eye challenges for your colour vision and your focus:

Make sure to let me know below what your results are, I like to think I did pretty well but you never know!

So what about you, have you been feeling in a bit of a rutt and decided to make some changes? If so, what are they? Let me know below or continue the conversation over on our social channels.

Why we need to talk about Honey, Honey!

We all know that honey has amazing health benefits from consumption to beauty treatments. This little gift from nature can be found in all forms from lip balms to poured in your tea as a healthier alternative to sugar but what exactly is it and why is very little honey actually ‘pure honey’? Well dear reader, let me explain…

“Lemon & Honey Chicken Skewers 1of4” by Food Thinkers

What is Raw Honey? 

Put simply, Raw Honey is the product that is taken as it is directly from the beehive and bottled. The beekeeper will pour the honey through a filter, usually, a mesh cloth to filter out any impurities such as bee wax and et voila! The honey is ready to go out into the world. 

This honey is darker in composition and maintains a lot more of the natural and nutritional benefits of honey as it hasn’t gone through several filtration and pasturisation processes 

What is “Regular Honey’ 

Regular honey, which the type we are most likely to see in the shops and on hotel breakfast tables is honey that has gone through several pasterian and filtration processes. These processes can remove beneficial nutrients like pollen, enzymes and antioxidants but makes the honey clearer and to many this can be more appealing to consumers. 

How sellers profit from ‘Regular Honey’ 

Now, as mentioned ‘Raw Honey’ is bottled as it is taken from the hive but with ‘Regular Honey’ once it has gone through the various filtration stages it is often further broken down and mixed with other products to make it more profitable. In man cases bee farmers will sell their raw honey to bigger companies where this extra step is then performed. 

To meet the massive demand for honey, the companies will then mix the honey with sugar syrup and other ingredients such as artificial sweeteners to make a larger batch but to not lose the flavour – but this process further delutes the nutrition benefits one can obtain from Raw Honey such as pollen. This pollen is superpowered as it contains over 250 substances, including vitamins, amino acids, essential fatty acids, micronutrients and antioxidants. Nice. 

A study in the USA showed that up to 75% of all processed “Regular Honey” contained no pollen after it had gone through treatment, which is certainly food for thought.

Image of a Local Honey Farm – Via The Raw Honey  

Raw is the way to go, honey! 

With most of the health benefits being attributed to honey in its raw format, it is highly recommended that when you are next making a honey purchase that you check the labels of the products to check for any added ingredients and the processes that it has gone through. If you use honey for health reasons it may make sense to spend a little more to get the full benefits of all that lovely honey goodness. If you want to stay away from the supermarkets and support local businesses then why not go directly to your local honey farm and get it directly from the beekeeper themselves? Get in! 

Do you love honey? If so did you know the above or have you been getting the benefits all along? Let us know below or on our social channels as we can talk about all day. 

Until next time, darlings

Why don’t you come see me over at Digital-Coven.com, sometime?

Well hello there, darlings! 

Just a little note to let you know that in between the shit storm that is 2020 and channeling Mae West, I have been working on some side hustles which is why I have selfishly not been able to update this blog as much. Rest assured this is due to change as I am working on a plethora of content to be posted over the next few weeks. Exciting times indeed!

If you are in dire need of bunnypudding related content then check out my Witch and Tarot related blog and business over at digital-coven.com and keep your eyes peels for my next little love nuggets to be shared on here shortly. <3

Bunnypudding and The best Halloween films to watch if you’re partial to historical hotties

I am not even going to go into the cluster fuck that is 2020. It’s been terrible, it’s been awful and my God my mental health is as good as yours…which I imagine looks a little like this: 

So rest assured dear reader, I am not going to bore the living shit out of you by writing some deep and profound long-form post about how we can find inner peace during a shit storm. Maybe you can find inner peace in a shit storm, who knows – I certainly don’t but what Ms.pudding does know is that sometimes when it’s raining shit outside, you just need a break from it.  Even if it’s a just break from the smell, and my gwad, haven’t you come to the right place for that. Distraction and disassociation is my bag baby, so you ready? Let’s go….

It’s October, therefore my lovely and ever-patient audience (Dad) this means two things – 2020 is nearly over – hu-fucking-rah and it’s….HALLOWEEN SEASON. 

If you’re new here and just groaned at me mentioning Halloween… how on earth did you find yourself here*? Shoo, we do not want your wares here, oh no. 

If you suddenly perked up at the near thought of the day celebrating the macabre, well my child, you have found a new home <3 

So very top level with the news but I am building a new Witchy website which should be launching very shortly. I have just commited to a domain name and you’re all gonna be welcome to join my lil’ ‘digital coven’…so watch this space for the announcement. Whoop! 

If you can’t wait until then (and why should you?!) please check out @bunnyscopes on Instagram or if you are a member of Soho works, come and visit me on the 29th October 2020 5pm onwards and get a lil Tarot reading from me in person 😉 

And if you really can’t wait, here is the first out of my MONTH LONG ‘lists of things to watch over the Halloween’ season posts. Get in. 

The Love Witch 

You may never have seen it, you may never have heard of it but you for sure will have come across a meme from it. ‘The Love Witch’ is not only a homage to the horror films of the 60s, it’s also a feminist film full of beautiful technicolour and fabulous fashion. It’s a personal go-to of mine and, was the first film I brought to cheer myself during the breakdown of 2018. Lolz, and we thought that was a bad year…Such fun memories…

Where to find it 

You can find it to rent or buy on amazon 

Trailer: https://youtu.be/pNtEbdJSnrs

The Company of Wolves 

Angela Carter, you saucy minx. If you haven’t read her yet, do so immediately. If you’re a prude then maybe not so much but still give her a go. Either way, you’re in for a titillating time. Based on her sensual retelling of ‘Little Red Riding Hood’  from her collection of short stories ‘The Bloody Chambers’ the film takes a feminist twist on the original story. It’s my favourite film. I think this and Labyrinth could be played on repeat and I would never, ever get tired of watching them. On that note, if you partial to men in tight trousers and cravats, and I AM, then there are a few of those near the end of the film. You can thank me later. 

And before you moan ‘Bunnypudding, these are all stylish, feminist films… where is the agony and painful horror!’ no shit. The blog name literally has ‘bunny’ and ‘pudding’ in it. That’s the first give away, champion. I may swear like a fish wife and could win in a knife fight but damn I’d be wearing an haute-couture dress doing it if I could… *Glares at sugar daddy* Also, this is a list to take your mind away from….**gestures animatedly**  2020. So if you’re looking for deeply emotional kitchen sink dramas, this isn’t the list for you.

Now,  If you’re looking for fucked up fantasy films with a side of horror, how much fun are you having right now, huh?!

Interview with the Vampire 

As I know my audience, top-level description:  

Hot historical male vampires in cravats being slightly homoerotic with each other

For the newbies:

The cinematic version of Ann Rices classic book about the several hundred-year old vampire Louis (or Sir Wallow a-lot as I like to call him) retelling his life in the modern-day to a journalist – thus the ‘interview’ part of the title. This film was a favourite of mine at 12 years old and its a favourite of mine at 112 years old and for exactly the same reasons my friends (See above top-level description) Starring Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and Antonio Banderas complete with fangs and flowing locks, its just fabulous. 

You can thank me later.

So what about you my Digital Coven? How you doing – been up to any adventures? If so, I want to know below and hey, if you have a film you’d think I like, make sure to pop them down below as well. We’re partial to breeches, boots and bosoms as well as cravats…so cheers!

* Based on my blog Analytics I currently rank for ‘historical porn’…so I am gonna make an educated guess here. Also, I apologise for the disappointment that the site didn’t match your desired search term. I recommend The Whores of Yore for those actually seeking historical pornography but if you’re seeking salacious films from 1980’s and back – alas, nothing here but if you do find the sie, by all means, share the link. No judgement here ya’ll.  

bunnypudding does Cali

Well hello, My beautiful Coven!

How has Summer been treating you? I don’t know about you but I have certainly needed vitamin D in my life. That was a very long Winter and I am very happy to be spending these past few months in the sun. 

It’s been fabulous with work, part of that means I have been super busy and not been able to record much on here but I am always popping up on the ‘Gram so make sure to keep up with my adventures over on bunnypudding and my witchy account – bunnyscopes but we are working some amazing things so it is all worth it, especially the campaign we have brewing at the start of the year. It’s very close to my heart and makes my mental health struggles all seem to have a little more positive meaning now. Watch this space. 

 

I am literally about to fly to LA in 4 days, therefore I have naturally found the time to write this entry…procrastination, moi? I’ve managed to start the process of packing my things, well, as much as you can do without a suitcase. Now, don’t judge me, we all had a Marie Kindo period last year and mine involved binning my large suitcase, so I shall be hauling ass to oxford street primark commeth Monday. Otherwise, I am trying to keep it sensible…I’ve brought no new clothes and most of the items that I need I already own, so on top of the suitcase, I have only treated myself to a new memory foam travel pillow #livingthedream #travelblogger #livelaughlove

I’ll try to post a few of my adventures in LA  on here and make sure to keep me posted on what you have been up to and any recommendations on what to do when I am in LA below (Of just send your Instagram angles so I can just follow you instead) Whoop! Anyway, I am off to fall down another Lana Dey Ray* hole, see in you in 5 albums time.

Internet Titbits

Hello Darlings,

This weekend, I have mainly been working on a super long list of contacts for a project due Monday. I have officially become spreadsheet blind. I am dreaming in columns. As the task was time sensitive, I made to sure to leave enough spare moments for time wasting in my schedule as I know who I am. The best part of working on the internet is the random stuff that you find whilst casually doing your day to day job, this means I am never wanting for things to browse as my “read later” list is extensive. Here are some of the things I found on the internet during my breaks that kept me sane whilst I gently wept over my keyboard in between breaks.

 

The fact that there is a Moomin Theme Park. 

Image result for moomin theme park

I shit you not. All your childhood dreams have come true and you can actually travel to Finland and visit Moomin valley. Moomin World  is Located in the island of Kailo beside the old town of Naantali, near the city of Turku in Southwest Finland. I mean, LOOK AT IT. It’s marvelous. How happy do they look in that picture? And whats that, they have a replica of the actual Moomin house? My inner ten-year-old self cannot contain herself. I’m adding meeting one of my fashion icons – “Little My” onto my bucket list immediately.

If anyone knows where I would be bale to stream this show, I would love you forever.

 

The woman engaged to a chandelier.

I love this story far too much. Sometimes a story just casually pops up into your news feed when you’re feeling blue and you have no idea whats going to happen when you click the link. All that you do know is that it won’t be boring. This was that story this of the week for me. To summarise, this fabulous creature has decided “screw men, this is exhausting” and set up house with a cornucopia of chandeliers, one of which she is engaged to.


Woman with sexual attraction to objects proposes to chandelier

The woman, Amanda, seems sincerely happy with Lumiere, her fiance – so good for her enjoying her polyamorous relationship with not just any old lamp, but instead, with the Liberace of lighting options.Way to go extra, Amanda, I applaud you.

 

Pauline Boty

We all do that thing where we spot an image (pictured below) and it captures us and it leads you on a random adventure. Well, that was my story this week with Pauline Boty. She had been on my mind ever since I first saw her picture at the V&A “So you want a revolution exhibition” (Fabulous event – I really want a youthquake!) and I found myself researching her more.

Image result for pauline boty

With the recent death of the Cristine Keeler, this painting she made during that period was brought up in a feed of mine and I was drawn back into a Wikipedia whirlpool trying to find futher information about her. So much so, I am currently working on a post about her. Very fascinating woman.

Bubblebees

Literally digital crack, I discovered this game back in sixth form and haven’t been able to give it up since. The concept is simple, capture as many bees in bubbles (hence the snazzy name) within an allotted time as you can and try to beat your best score. Add a saccharine piano accomplishment to do it and et voila! The best way to waste a few hours of your life without feeling dirty afterwards… or something that will haunt your dreams. You decide.

 

Image result for orisinal bumble bees

 

There are loads of wonderful games on the Orisinal website, so I highly recommend giving it some time on a rainy Sunday..on that note:

The fact that it is snowing. I was having a wonderful Sunday Morning until I woke up to find world coated in fresh snow. It’s all well and good when you can practice hygge in your onesie in your flat, surrounded by cats but something else completely when you have to get up and commute in it on Monday morning. Sometimes, I am too forward thinking for my own good but I can’t help feeling glum about the fact that it is winter. How do you guys make yourself feel better in the colder months? I need all the help I can get – my housemate has recommended whiskey in my tea, I do wonder….

 

 

 

Bunnypudding attends the guitarwrist charity launch night

Well hello there, my little coven!

My goodness, it has been a hectic week for Ms. Pudding. I’m sorry to be getting my posts out so late but between my day job and my other little adventures, it’s hard to find the time to write it all down…Those that follow me on social media may be aware of a few events I’ve recently as featured stories on my social channels (If you don’t follow me, you must! I’m hilarious) but I felt the below deserved its very own write up, so that I could share it with you all, as I think it has something for everyone. PR can make you jaded at times, so it’s lovely when you get involved with something that warms your heartstrings.

Speaking of strings….

theguitarwristEdit_01

David Parry/PA Wire

I had a great time at the fabulous launch night of the guitarwrist pop-up store on Carnaby Street. The event was opened by the always wonderful KT Tunstall, who got to cut the guitar string rather than a ribbon – I loved that extra little touch…and I think we can all agree that the name “The guitarwrist” is on point as well!

 

theguitarwristEdit_10

David Parry/PA Wire

 

Over 150 international celebrated musicians and bands have donated strings to this project and a wide range of charities will benefit. The fabulous Emma Hedley designed the jewelry from a varied collection of artists such Chrissie Hynde to Pendulum. The full list of musicians is located on their site.  The best part of all is that 90% of all profits go to the charities involved. Now, I have been to many “charity” launches but this one is as legitimate as it can get – Well done the Guitarist team, being charitable never looked or felt so good.

 

The shop at 2 Newburgh Street, W1F 7RD will be open 7 days a week until the end of 31st January. So make sure to stop by if you’re in the area and you can follow the team over on their Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. #theguitairwrist. Prices start from as little as £40, so accessible for every music fan and perfect for Christmas presents and stocking fillers (I’ve already circulated my preferred pieces to my loved ones…mwahaha!) If you do drop by,  let me know, as I’d love to hear your thoughts but not to worry if you can’t as they have a swanky website for those who can’t visit Carnaby Street this Christmas season, so you can still get a unique little piece of your favourite artists memorabilia of your very own no matter where you are  – www.guitarwrist.com

I was invited to the event by the Queen of PR, Susie Howard, (Entitled as such, by myself!) whom I worked with on the David Bowie, Fame, Fashion, and Photography exhibition last year.  It was a great turn out, and I will make sure to include the guitarwrist party snaps in my “bunny about town” post, which is coming out over the weekend.

 

Anyway, I am about to pop out again into the cold and commute into Soho this evening.  I am not looking forward to it one bit as the temperature has certainly dropped the past few days. As a Nothern lass, I have shamefully become far too spoilt by this Southen weather! Let’s pray it doesn’t snow….surely, I am not alone in my winter weather loathing? The only upside to winter is the excuse to wear dazzling coats more often….*grumble grumble* until next time –

lovelove

Pssssttt!…..I may very well be having a blogger evening next week at the Popup store…If you are interested in coming along, please let me know <3

 

Beauty <3

Hello BBz,

I saw this and had to share it. It really touched my heart. I think those that have contacted me recently will understand the sentiment. We are all beautiful, fabulous creatures. Now please, fly my pretties and go get ’em!

 

best meme ever
