Perfect Lazy weekend


I decided to have a low key weekend this weekend to get over a cold.. it was perfect. Saturday lunch with my dad followed by a lazy evening and the best sunday ever with my lovely man, big lie ins, cooked breakfasts, long walks exploring, pub drinks and dinner, baking together and a cozy night! fab! x

2. Pre heat the oven, 160 (fan oven)
3. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
4. Melt the butter in the microwave then beat in the egg, then the milk and golden syrup and vanilla extract.
5. Add the egg mix to the dry ingredients and lightly mix.
6. Spoon a blob into muffin case then add 1 teaspoon of spreadable golden syrup, then cover with another blob of mixture, repeat until all the cases are filled.
7. Cook in the middle of the oven for about 35 mins or until golden.
8. Serve while still hot, with a steaming cup of tea or coffee.
9. They would also be great turned into a pudding with a big dollop of custard.

Finally Friday



I am so glad the weekend is here. After an awful night of what seemed like endless cleaning and tidying last night (I can't wait to be properly unpacked and sorted in the flat) I woke up cranky and tired this morning, it didnt help that my music in the office was immedietly turned off for Amy Winehouse instead by my colleagues! Also all my friends are over at reading this weekend :(

Anyway I am determined to begin the weekend early so I grabbed a budget Breakfast (Bloomer from the bakers, Soft cheese (ok from tesco!), and amazing nectarines from the friut seller outside the tube) all for less than two pounds and loads left for lunch (I am completely reformed and never buying a £4 sandwich again!) I am going o crack on with some work so I can hopefully leave early, go to a friends for a lvely italian meal, hit the heath then out tomorrow, carnival and sunday and who knows for monday.... Roll on afternoon!!!

Stop


seriously now.. i have to stop looking.. (also what is my obsession with yellow.. i have 2 gorgeous vintage yellow dresses already!)

WOW!


this gorgeous dress is available to buy on etsy.... oh how I want it! ..its just too expensive at $325 :( i will dream instead!

wish list



Now that we have moved and I have managed to get rid of loads of clutter im feeling the need to acquire more stuff again!.. im trying not to buy anything absolutly not necessary but this apron and butter dish (also from anthropologie) are lovely!
