THE WEEKEND

a great weekend!



the highlights:


  • dinner, drinks + laughs with my friend L

  • watching my husband + her boyfriend A falling drunkenly into a bush while clinging to each other in the hope of staying upright - it's not big, it's not clever......but it really was very funny!

  • snuggling all day sunday with a sleepy + hungover husband

  • watching stranger than fiction on dvd. this was such a sweet film + in it, maggie gyllenhaal's character has my dream job - running a little bakery, serving homemade cookies + cupcakes. wow, lucky girl.






  • finding out that bernadette at sugarloop has put another batch of spring tree prints up for sale + managing to snap one up! this design is a little different to the first (linked to last week) but equally beautiful.
  • the relief that my sent swap packages made it to their recipients safely + delight at their response. both nikole + donna seem to be happy with what was sent......thanks girls! here they are before being shipped off to canada + scotland respectively (the packages, not the girls!)

......my red, white + blue, british-themed vintage button swap package

+ the tuquoise hued, mellow + yellow swap one.


i'm off to dream about the cookies i'll serve in my imaginery bakery......


hope you all had a lovely weekend too!

Yes, love the book and the beans..once I met someone who came here from abroad who said the thing he was looking forward to in England was eating Heinz Baked Beans!
