Hello my little Sunday morning campers! Here we are again, these weeks are just flying by aren't they? I'm not going to lie, I'm a huge Sunday fan. A decent lie in, something on the naughty side for breakfast and then a whole day of lovely nothingness ahead. Let's reminisce about our week shall we?
* Bank holiday Mondays. Don't they just change your week into something much lovelier to handle? A three day weekend and only a four day week. Can we keep the bank holiday every week? We just pottered about and did a little car shopping on ours (O wants a bigger car...). The Mr then made an amazing lamb roast dinner. Think I can persuade him to do the same again today?
* New candles. Yup, as it's getting a little colder, I can definitely justify burning candles again. I got some serious candle-shaped bargains in the Sainsburys home department. You should check it out if you're of the candle persuasion.
* The east. We spend Friday and Saturday in Manchester visiting the Mr's family and it poured down with tremendous proportions the whole time. Driving back east last night, we were driving into the sun! It's as if all that rain was a bad dream. Don't get me wrong, I'm a westerner at heart and love a good torrential down pour, but it was nice to have a sunny little break. It was great being amongst family again too and seeing that little cheeky puppy again.
* The sky. Hasn't the sky been wonderful this week? I feel like every single evening I've been running out into the garden trying to snap a photo of the sun going behind the clouds or the lovely pink hue that it's been sporting some nights. I just can't get enough of it. Although I can feel the dark nights looming over us...
* Soda bread. Oh yes! After much inspiration from Sally and Rosie, I finally got my soda bread bake on. It was the easiest thing to do and gave me the tastiest bread at the end. The lovely Sally has given me many little soda bread twist ideas, so this won't be the last soda bread I make. Oh and just in case you were wondering, it has been devoured with lovely salty butter and (mostly) Nutella.
* Autumn nails. Barry M brought out their Autumn nail collection this week and I managed to snap up three of them. I love them all! I really don't need any more nail polishes, but y'know, it's Autumn!
* Guide books. Some of our guidebooks have arrived for our Scandi road trip. We spend the whole car journey down to Manchester reading out facts about Norway and Denmark. Well, I did the reading and O did the driving, otherwise that would just be unsafe. I am SO excited!
Tell me lovelies, how was your week? Was it a good one? Were you lucky enough to have the bank holiday? What is your sky like? Please share them with me in the comments below, I'd love to know what's been putting a smile on your faces this week...

Ah I love a Sunday morning lie in! We had a great week - watched a Knight's tournament at Belsay castle on bank hol mon and then went glamping in a yurt for a few nights with kids' friends from school (and their parents)
ReplyDeleteOh I love glamping! Haven't stayed in a Yurt yet, but have been pod camping! Where was the yurt you stayed in?
DeleteI'm loving that Summer has come back! Think we're set for some beautiful sunny days next week! x
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean! Looks like we've had a little autumn reprieve, eh?!

I just had a Google of the new Barry M polishes, I LOVE the green and the grey ones! :D I've been dying to try out Rosie's soda bread recipe. It sounds so quick and easy! xx
