Sam's parents rock my world

I just came home to this lovely package from Sams
ma and Pa.....Not so stoked about the E.T card : (
Sam let it slip how terrified I am of the extra
terrestrial and of course when you find that out you
present her with his face stuck to her kitchen
cupboard.

If I was a toaster I'd be this one

Friday Nights

I'm always a bit stuck for something to do on a Friday night.
Mostly because I work on Saturdays and a lot of fun things
involve wine and late nights.
So usually friday nights involve a night in with good
company.
I AM SUPER EXCITED about this new program 'The Event'
starting tonight....So now on my friday nights can also
involve this....thats if it lives up to my expectations.

Moroccan Food

I've been trying to find some more recipies and I
really want to try and make this:

kefta-tagine

My Favourite food to cook and eat is Moroccan food.
I havent cooked it for ages though. This makes me a
bit sad.
Marianna bought me a Tagine for my 24th birthday
and its still unused!
I have lamb in the freezer ready and It will get
used soon! Maybe on Tim Days next visit?

Tea that is green

I don't really rate green tea but I have been drinking
sooo much coffee that I decided I needed to drink a
hot drink that is actually good for me.
Twinings selection box it is! It's sort of like
the tea version of a quality street tin.

photo-2

So far I have tried citrus flavour which reminded
me of lemsip, grapefruit and pineapple which was
also sort of odd. I am currently drinking
cranberry green tea. Weirdly I like this and I
don't usually enjoy cranberry flavoured stuff.

cheers!

evening in a blanket

Sam is spending this week next at the seaside so I'm
all on my lonesome in the flat.....
So this evening I am curled up in my blanket reading.
I have always wanted to read 1984 so Ben bought it for
me but unfortunately I kept on getting distracted and
never finished it.

This is going to change.

Good health is hard work

So since I've moved up here I've been making a real
effort to be healthy. One reason is for my self esteem
and the other is to have a healthy body inside and
outside.
Recently I have seen what happens to you when you don't
look after yourself and I want to do what I can to
prevent this.
The healthy eating is pretty good, I don't drink a glass
of wine everyday now! and I've almost conquered the
smoking.........almost.

but......the gym

I don't look forward to going and I don't enjoy it while
I'm there plus I feel rank afterwards......Its really
starting to bug me that nothing really seems to be changing
in the way that I would like it to.
Looks like I'm going to have to make friends with my pot belly
and bingo wings :)

Furniture arranging

The cats are doing are heads in fighting so we
did some research and we are trying EVERYTHING
to make them chill out.
One of the recommendations was to arrange your
furniture in a way that gives them separate
territory. So from now on this is the new
sofa background!

Finally finished it!

8 out 10...It was slightly far fetched at times but
it was pretty much based around nasa so I forgave it

I can't spell Wednesday

Day off! So far I have Cleaned, washed some clothes,
changed my sheets from teal gingham to blue flowers.
umm eaten a bowl of cereal, got up to the i's in my
copying cds to mac mission, gone food shopping, eaten
a penguin bar and drunk green tea, listened to more
caspian and a little bit of intronaut, written some
letters and some blogs, forgotten to post my letters,
done boring financial stuff, been called a goth
and probably bored you with it all!

I'm going to watch one of these now

The word Hosiery sounds so unsexy

So hopefully I should be getting some commission this
month and I think I deserve to treat myself......
My legs are going to find a new home inside some
Henry Holland tights

Cinematic Orchestra

I absolutely adore the music they make. It has made
me smile deliriously and cry like an idiot on many
occasions.
They are definitely in my top 5 live experiences and
I want to see them again...soon please!

Turn my business brain on

So I've had a retail dream in the back of my head for
a couple of years and just never thought it was achievable
so never thought seriously about it....

I told someone about it yesterday and they made me
realise that it actually was....
So I'm making a plan :)

Think brain. Think brain. Think brain.

Lesbian moment

When I was 16 I adored this woman to the point of
obsession. Its less of an obsession now and more of
a crush.

Spinnerette+spin001

Its a shame that she doesn't show her bum in her
videos anymore
