“Do not believe everything you think.” Allan Lokos

We all have moments when our thoughts run ahead of us. We can take a breath and come back to what’s actually happening.
We don’t have to follow every thought that appears.

A soft pink illustration made up of nine hand-drawn Christmas-tree shapes, each decorated in simple doodle-style designs like bows, spots, ribbons, or stripes. Each tree carries a reminder for overthinkers. Top row: a pink tree with bows saying ‘Not every thought has to be solved immediately’; a green tree with pink ribbons saying ‘Mistakes = human, not “I’m bad”’; a pink tree saying ‘You can pause, breathe, and reply later.’ Middle row: a dark green tree saying ‘You don’t have to earn rest’; in the centre the heading ‘Reminders for the Over Thinkers’; a pink tree with red dots saying ‘You’re allowed to say no.’ Bottom row: a pink swirled tree saying ‘One awkward moment doesn’t define you’; a pale pink tree saying ‘Just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true’; and a very light pink tree wrapped.

On a snowy day, a small figure with his dog shines a torch as he walks past a snow-topped barn. This barn has strong echoes of ‘the repair shop’

When I tell you that Chocolate Salame is #RecipeOfTheDay, don’t be alarmed! It’s just the Italian version of a chocolate refrigerator cake, fashioned to resemble salame. I’ve upped the ante with hazelnuts, pistachios, amaretti biscuits and Amaretto. www.nigella.com/recipes/choc...
Chocolate Salame
I’ve encountered quite a few versions of chocolate salame in Italy — coming to the conclusion that it’s really an Italian version of our chocolate refrigerator cake — and although I am not normally a ...

Happy #NationalSlimeDay
Fun Factlets;
🫟 is both a solid & a liquid. Scientifically, it’s a non-Newtonian fluid, meaning its polymers change depending on pressure.
Vinegar completely dissolves 🫟.
🫟 Hagfish (aka slime eels or snot snakes) create tonnes of slime to choke predators that try to eat them.

The early winter light over snow has created and almost apricot coloured sky. The country Lane is probably in Kent and we see a small farm yard with oast houses

It’s December, therefore it’s ok to open “The Christmas Baileys” right?
(answer: Yes)

Bailey’s is on offer for ½ price - therefore buying x2 bottles is the same as buying x1 right?!
(Yes)

But when with your loyalty card it’s £9 instead of £22 a bottle - that’s a steal right?!

It's important in #Education to develop your practice based on what you learn from other teachers.
In my case that's having a Friday dance at the end of the day as we leave, inspired by @mrsveritea.bsky.social example! Today was Feliz Navidad which led to them doing the conga out the room 😄 #EduSky

Spruced-Up Vanilla Cake
This is a sleight of hand, or a trick of equipment rather than an act of brilliance. True, the cake does look incredibly complicated and seasonally impressive as it comes to the table, but that is all...

For a bit of #FridayFun, what are some of your favourite 'teacher phrases'? One of mine has got to be, "It's your own time you're wasting." 😂 #Teachers #TeacherHumour
Pastel background. Main image - pile of books (with pages bookmarked) with a cup of tea balanced on top. Quote text box reads, "It's your own time you're wasting."
