DIY - Easy home made frozen yogurt popsicles


Yummy healthy alternative to an ice cream or ice lolly, if ya wanna get fancy, you can add blueberries or banana to the mix (properly mix it into the mixture to make it creamy). 
Enjoy!

PS: trying to integrate old and new blog to start showing same content so bare with me if you are a little confused right now!

Been 2 years since I last blogged but here I am...

Been 2 years since I last blogged but here I am trying to get into the blogging groove again and hopefully some of you are still around to be reading this....take 3 !
2 years on and what has happened...well a lot and in many ways not much.

I'm still in Hong Kong (who would of thought that 4 years ago!) and have made our flat ours in our own chaotic way. 
When we first bought the flat, the previous owners had painted the walls the nastiest orange and green you could imagine, and I'm talking ALL the walls, they had really random shelves all over the place and quite mismatched furniture including a proper piano, which sounds pretty cool, but it was WAY too much in such a small space so a lick of new paint, all feels good! 
Once I find some 'Before' photos, I will have to show you the difference a change in colour can make.

Since we've travelled to Taipei, Taiwan & more recently we went to Bali. Taiwan was a while ago now and my memory isn't too hot but I know I had a good time, was very interesting to see the differences between Hong Kong & Taipei, the biggest amazement was seeing people queue up in neat little lines to get onto the tube...now that I've never seen anywhere, not even in Japan.

Bali was a surprise holiday for me as I literally did not know where we were heading until I pushed my suitcase to the check in desk. Our 2 weeks there was perfection, from start to finish, was just fab and that is a word I use lightly.

We've had quite a few visitors, some returning because they are super cool like that, and others for the first time and soon having my MIL visit if everything goes to plan (returnee). This awesome pic is from a boat trip we organised through this meet up group I occasionally frequent.

Oh and I have a new website through Shopify  which was the only platform that ticked all my boxes of 1) multiple currencies 2) easy to use 3) a proper content management system. My only problem with it is that it only has 100 products so I'm looking to change, if anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears!

I've started to work with acrylic and created 2 collections, the first being the +852 range, and more recently the 'Little Flowers' range which I'm so happy with and have had a lot of great feed back over.

So enough about the past, what about the future? 
In the immediate future I see food because I am starving! In the not so immediate future, we are making plans to move back to the UK....yup and this time we 100% mean it...and I will explain more in a future post...now for some dumplings yum!

Happy Chappy




Annoyingly, I'm struggling to get the email working for it though so for now, will have to stick with the usual meow@littleclouds.co.uk one.
I am very very happy with it and thinking of doing some giveaway or coupon or something to mark the occasion, but not sure what......any ideas?

New Stockist - Indie Cindy


In my last post I mentioned 2 new stockists, the first being 'The Maisonette' in Glasgow and the 2nd I didn't want to reveal until my 1st package had safely arrived and now it has...I can proudly announce it to be INDIE CINDY in Leeds, UK !

Indie Cindy is the creative baby of Rowan Grant of KitschenSink and the official launch party is THIS Sunday! (forget the whole Royal Wedding affair pffff!) So if your nearby or without anything to do skip down to the Birds Yard in Leeds to ahhhh over the pretty things on offer, some massive favourites are there including Love from Hetty and Dave, Magasin and FinestImaginary! The Facebook grapevine is also telling me that there will be delicious cakes from Off the Cuff Cakes to nibble on...now, if only teleportation exists !

Hola !


*blows the cobwebs away*

Wowieee has it really been 3 months since I last blogged?!
I can't say its because not much has been happening or that I've had nothing to write about, its probably more the opposite in not knowing where to start ! But as they say, better late than never....

So what have I been up to? ........ *drum roll*
  • I went to Japan and it was totally and utterly amazing (so amazing that I will dedicate a separate post to it another time)
  • Littleclouds has added 2 stockists ! The first being The Maisonette - Made in the Shade and the second I'd like to reveal a little later as it is yet to officially open but I can tell you I can't wait to see the photos of the launch as I just KNOW it will of been a job good done.
  • We quite abruptly decided to stay in Hong Kong! The reason is a combination of things but mostly because we're enjoying our time here and why the rush? I think we moved here on the idea that it would only be for 2 years that we never thought to just stop and ask ourselves what we want to do. This time around we're not setting ourselves any time limits or ideas, we're just going to see what happens...
  • We bought a flat ! Which is kind of the opposite of what we were planning 2 months before but since we knew we were staying for the immediate future and our rental lease was expiring we just thought might as well ! All you rentees will understand what I mean when I say how tiring and unsettling it is to rent! So we are so excited to have our own place! And paint our walls and to choose our own furniture. The flat is a bit small (tiny compared to UK standards...even compared to London!) but it is ours and we will have a balcony which means I can attempt to grow some herbs or veg!
  • A new website is coming! Its actually quite embarrassing how long this has been coming along but its my fault, I kept changing my mind about how I wanted it but its been churning along for a while now and its nearly complete.....I can almost taste the finish line!
  • I made a facebook page! I literally JUST now published it, it is here --> Littleclouds and I will be great for any likes (no one likes to see an empty fan page...especially me ha!)
  • And and and I'm pregnant ! well I'm not, I'm joking teehee! but that would of been funny if that were the case. Funny as in because everything appears to have happened at once, not because I find pregnancy a funny subject as it really isn't (I watched 'One Born Every Minute' its pretty much set me back another 5 years in the making-babies stakes....)
STAY TUNED !

EDIT - I'm not pregnant, it was a joke!!! Sorry
