Happy St. George's Day!!!

Happy St. George's Day! St. George is the patron saint of England, and so today is a celebration of everything English!

The English flag, a white background with a red cross is called The "Colours of Saint George", or St George's Cross. You can find out more about St George by clicking on the title of this post.

Heroine Industries have been featured on a St Geroge's Day themed post on Skullandcrossbuns blog, which you can visit at the link below;

Here are some of the best 'English' themed items I found on Etsy (I wanted to pick items that were English, not British, and weren't too 'london');

  6. Do this hack to drop 2 lbs of fat in 8 hours

    Well over 160,000 men and women are trying a easy and secret "liquid hack" to burn 2lbs each and every night as they sleep.

    It's proven and it works with everybody.

    This is how you can do it yourself:

    1) Get a glass and fill it up with water half the way

    2) Proceed to follow this strange hack

    and become 2lbs skinnier as soon as tomorrow!

  7. According to Stanford Medical, It is really the SINGLE reason women in this country live 10 years longer and weigh an average of 19 kilos less than us.

    (And really, it has NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret diet and really, EVERYTHING to do with "how" they eat.)

    BTW, I said "HOW", not "what"...
