Well this week has been all about putting all the birthday gifts and toys away, and having a little sort out. I started with our bedroom and managed a huge bag for charity plus some bits for eBaying. I love a good declutter session, and plan to go through the house in the coming weeks. I am a woman on a mission.
Read
I am still reading my Sweet Temptation book ( I WILL finish it this week). I have also been having a read through of the new Slimming World magazine. The gorgeous looking Salted Caramel and Coffee Cheesecake certainly caught my eye. How an earth can something that yummy be Slimming World friendly.
Watched
I always struggle with this section as we don’t seem to watch much television. Hubby and I have such different tastes when it comes to programmes and films. Our Netflix nights consist of scrolling through for about 30 minutes, then giving up as we just can’t decide what to watch. Celebrity Big Brother has sucked me in this year though. How many arguments has there been this year.
Heard
The 10 year old introduced me to Shawn Mendes and his fab song Stitches. God I am THAT mum now, who has no idea who is in the charts, and the kids know more than me. I love the song and it seems to be constantly on the radio or music channels at the moment.
Made
After having a fairly indulgent birthday where far too much birthday cake and Prosecco was consumed, it was back to healthy eating. The husband made this quick and easy stir fry one evening. I forgot how tasty stir fry is, and the kids only mildly complained about it having ‘too much green stuff’ in it.
Wore
My aim for this week was to wear my Pandora more. I was lucky to get 2 more charms for my birthday, one from my husband, and the one below from a close friend. I was incredibly touched when I opened it, and it really adds a little colour to my otherwise silver bracelet.
And lastly
We have a sneaky little night away planned tomorrow, just me and the husband. It was a birthday treat from him, and really looking forward to going away just the two of us. Have a great week x
Oh, I recognise that song from the radio, the girls and I love it!
That Pandora charm is gorgeous, I love those bracelets.
Have a wonderful night away! xx
Thank you Morgana and for hosting Little Loves too. I was so touched when my friend gave me the charm, another little memory for my Pandora bracelet x
Happy Birthday! I love my Pandora bracelet but i don’t wear it enough! Love the charm.. CBB has definitely been full of arguments and lots of walkouts this year, but like you I have been sucked into it. Im not keen on Steph! Stir fry looks amazing! Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy the night away x Popping over from #littlelove
Thank you Anna-Marie. My Pandora is usually kept in its box but I really need to make the effort more and actually wear it. I have actually enjoyed CBB this year mainly for all of the tension and arguments. Crazy lot of people lol. Thank you for popping by x
Happy Birthday! Hope you enjoy your night away! I’m tempted to make that cheesecake myself, but I was worried I’d devour it all in one sitting (I’m THAT greedy!). I did buy the stuff to make those coffee mousses on the opposite page to it though so fingers crossed they’ll hit the spot. Have a great weekend x
Hope the chocolate mousses turn out well for you. I must admit they look just as yummy as the cheesecake. We are back from our night away and had a lovely chilled out time. Back to reality now x
Aww what a lovely roundup. Made me chuckle about the music! That stir fry looks yummy x #littleloves
Thanks KA. The stir fry was lovely and I really need to make more of them. How easy are they to make x
