2013 Bestie Bucket List


 Hello Friends,

We meant to get round to posting this blog aaaages ago, but we're just way too busy and important (ahem....).


In Summer 2011, Salt became single again after three years. She tried drowing her sorrows for a while, but when that turned out to be a terrible idea (Who'd have thought it?!), she decided to start doing little things to get her back on track to feeling like herself again and employed the help of Satch (of course) and our friend Jacklin, to come up with a bit of a bucket list for her. However, as Salt didn't, in fact, get round to doing anything on the list, we've decided that there's strength in numbers, and we're going to do it together.


We're calling it our 2013 bestie bucket list but don't worry, we don't have a joint suicide planned in December!

The items range from big and scary to small and lovely, (thankfully, speed dating has been removed too) and we're going to blog about how it's all going throughout the year. Anyone is welcome to have a go at our list, and see if you can beat us, which, as it's the end of January and we haven't started it yet, is probably likely. As we mentioned earlier, we're just too busy and important!


So here it is :)


Write a Novel



Run a Half-Marathon



Knit something 


Bake something you've never baked before


Read a classic novel you've never read before



Watch a film saga in one sitting



Get a tattoo (SO scared!)


Watch a classic film you've never seen before



Learn 3 new songs on an instrument


Start your mornings a different way every day for a month


Learn to draw something you can't currently draw

Have a complete makeover

Drinking match with Daddy Satch (Much harder than it sounds!)


Burn a load of unnecessary old stuff on a bonfire


Put on an AMAZING meal for your friends

Try on 3 things in a shop you normally wouldn't touch


Get something super weird from a charity shop and wear it out


Walk on custard


Learn wine appreciation/wine tasting


Skinny dipping


Horse riding



Make a fancy dress costume from scratch


Learn to drive (Neither of us have done this, despite Salt trying...)


Have a proper greasy kebab (Satch still hasn't done this, as she was a let down of a student, apparently!)


Buy the stranger in the queue behind you a coffee.



And thats that! 2013 looks like its going to be exciting! What do you reckon? Any take your fancy? We're always happy to hear about your progress and suggestions/recommendations.

Happy New Year,
Salt & Satch
