ended up doing a lot of fun random research related to this (which i loved)

Firstly, Nina Simone is the Queen of Covers: • Do what you gotta do - Nina Simone (researching for this question I just found out here isn’t the original and that’s insane. That’s actually insane. Jimmy Webb original? Flop.) • Stars (Live Vine St. Bar & Grill/1987) - Nina Simone • Here comes the sun - Nina Simone  • The closer I get to you - Beyoncé, Luther Vandross • How can you mend a broken heart - Al green  • Can’t take my eyes off of you - Lauryn Hill • Killing me softly - Lauryn hill, Fugees  • Killing me softly - Roberta Flack (a cover fr?!) • After you - Roberta Flack (gagged again) • Will you still love me tomorrow - Carole King • Life on mars - Aurora (girls hbo soundtrack) • Iron man - The Cardigans • Sabbath Bloody Sunday - The Cardigans • The first time I ever saw your face - the temptations  • Sarah Smile - Boys II Men • Moon River - Frank Ocean • Blue velvet - Lana Del Rey • Doin time - Lana Del Rey • Across the universe - Fiona Apple

Flower cookies!

There’s a creator on Instagram and tiktok called Lauren_dozier and she makes the most lovely flower shaped cookies I made them recently and they turned out quite well- I used a ‘no spread’ sugar cookie recipe and gel food colouring 💓

Coconut oil!

I tried so many different branded hair masks and nothing has worked as well for me as just pure coconut oil. I buy a big tub of cold pressed 100% pure coconut oil and apply a generous amount all over my scalp (about 2 tbsp), leave it for as long as possible (if i have no where to go I put a little cap on and leave it all day), then work shampoo into my hair dry (oil doesn’t mix well with water) then wash out and condition. it leaves my hair feeling so nourished and clean!

JUNK JOURNAL SCRAPBOOK CRAFT

Paper-based activities bring me back to my childhood, if I’m feeling extra-nostalgic I’ll sit on the floor and craft with all my journaling supplies spread about me. It satiates something in me, to use my hands to create; my life ask less and less for dexterity, and requires less and less sitting on the floor all afternoon- it is meditative <3
