Kicking Back the Pebbles

A big girl's notes on home - cuisine - travel - life

Hello world, we’re all mad here…

January 30, 2016 - 18 Comments

Kicking Back the Pebbles took the plunge and we’re self-hosting.

We’re undergoing major changes, as you can imagine, so you may find that the blog looks awkward for a couple of weeks, as I’m tackling this monster one bit at a time.

kbtp_2016 Resolution

Here’s a short list of what maybe off, that you should be aware of:

  • images & links
  • galleries
  • URLs
  • social Media Buttons
  • recipes’ lay-out & print feature
  • categories & Menus
  • just about anything…

I will let you know—through social media—when we’re up and running like we’re supposed to, so please bear with me.

Thanks for dropping by—and don’t forget to subscribe! (Now if I can only find that pop-up plugin…)

Hi, it’s Athina!

A stalwart bookworm, English & American Literature graduate, EFL/ESOL teacher. I juggled teaching and working as an executive secretary, in a big advertising company and a law firm, for several years. I’m a freelance writer, line editor, and blogger as of lately. Also, a bit ironic by nature but, all in all, quite easy-going. Partner to 1 & mother to 3 cats. I once tried to give up coffee and then swore not to make that mistake again!

P.S.: I realize as I'm posting this that several online shops are swamped with orders during lockdowns and have decided to go on a brief halt. Also, keep in mind that all shipments are susceptible to delays due to Covid-19 restrictions. My post is only meant to inspire you and not to overwhelm you in any way. If you like the look and wish to go for it, you can totally DIY it—or do something similar—with whatever materials you have at hand. To recreate these particular baubles, use matte black spray-paint and give your old ones a coat or two. Use a small paintbrush and mod-podge to draw snowflakes (or any other shape you 🖤), sprinkle with gold glitter, and voilà! Things should get better. Be patient, keep your chin up, and get creative—it helps battle the blues.
