Hi Biscuit Breakers! Well, I never expected to get here so soon! Last year I decided to finally start a blog that would be a place for me to be my crazy, nerdy self without the fear of being judged by so-called 'friends'. I kept it a secret for a while, I quietly worked on... Continue Reading →

Hi Biscuit Breakers, As you know, I am a practising Hindu. There are several festivals and traditions that we do throughout the year and during summer, Hindus celebrate 'Shravan', a month of being vegetarian (if you're not already) or fasting.

It's the classic tale of catfishing. But in this case, Anne probably held the trump card and outlived not only the King himself, but also ALL of the other queens. After doing my research a bit more into her history, I've found that she, alongside Katherine of Aragon are my favourite queens so far. Anne... Continue Reading →
For the last few years Killing Eve has quickly become one of my favourite shows of all time. It subverted expectations of female assassins and detectives, it was glamorous and humorous too.
