Baker Betty...

When i first met my partner/man/love of my life i may have told a rather small white lie about being quite a good cook...don't judge me just yet!! of course i was filling his mind with visions of me in an apron cooking him wholesome meals and baking triple layer cakes. Being European he loves his food...and since we have been together i have put on a few or more kilos...and as we are almost at the one year mark (tadaaaa!!!) i think he may have...sort of..maybe clued on im not exactly that talented at cooking.

Although in my mind i think im rather good, i can make a mean Megoran noodles, and a batch of vanilla cupcakes usually works out in an edible state so i didn't think my white lie was totally untrue...until this past weekend when i cooked a whole fish for him and his family....which was still...semi raw!

So hopefully this year...since we just bought our first house!!!!!! yippeee!!! which i am kinda over the moon about!!! i cant wait to share pictures and decorating ideas when we move in in February, Ill become a little more Martha Stewart...and learn to cook food thoroughly....fingers crossed!

Buggy...

Spent the weekend fanning my sweaty face with brochures on a wine tour bus, trying to escape the heat by eating frozen grapes and dreaming of tropical islands, looking at houses with the boy and dreaming of ways to decorate...with a house i don't have! and purposely sitting on pale blue punch buggies for photographs....which has left me with an urge to purchase one...which if i did would probably need a lifetime of RAC roadside assistance!

Toffee Apple...

Im absolutely sure every woman needs an electric blue pair of heels, its a fool-proof way to add a bit of sass to your wiggle i still adore mine, they pick me up a little when i feel like im in a clothing slump! (i think ive been channelling Marilyn lately)

After a huge weekend filled with a lot more eating (it was my partners christmas) thats right two Christmas's im looking forward to getting back into a normal eating and sleeping pattern, the boy bought me a sea monkey starter kit which im a little too excited about! i love things that take you back to your childhood, im also starting to learn a new language this week...(nervous..much!) my partner is Serbian and i do know a few words but im keen to pick up on a little more, aside from the fact he only teaches me the naughty words im excited to learn another language fingers crossed i can pick it up. do you have any tips for learning a new language? im guessing repetition and lots of homework....

I have a huge week planned with lots of sewing and hopefully a shop update soon! xx i think ill need another coffee!!
