The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.

Ok, so I've lost an hour today, but its been a beautiful spring day with lots of sunshine - looking out, I can see a whole line of washing blowing in the breeze, such a simple pleasure but I love it! You can't beat fresh clean line dried sheets!
We went out this morning to Hawarden to a food festival that had been recommended to us. It was a fun drive out and the farm had a decent sized farm shop, a few animals dotted around and a large marquee full of goodies for sale. The pigs were incredibly cute!
We ended up spending a few quid on puddings! Not great for the diet but they looked so good! Then back home to do the ironing for the week and prepare for work tomorrow, not so fun.

All the things I've never done

I set off in good form yesterday ready to shop. However, my frugality over took me and I only ended up buying the top left in the Next sale! There is a reason for me to not be shopping - I'm off to NYC in less than a fortnight so really should be saving my pennies - or should that be cents?! - so that I can buy up a whole new wardrobe when I'm there.
I did manage to get a day bag for hubby - £7 in TK Maxx - I do like a good bargain!
I got back to the house at lunchtime and realised I actually do have to do some housework this weekend. Our house is up for sale, its been up since last June so I'm getting a little fed up of keeping it ready for viewing (with a 20 year old and an 18 year old who treat the place like a hotel), its really not easy. We've also sold twice and then found ourselves back on the market minus buyer but thats a whole other story!
We decided as it was just the 2 of us, to try out the new noodle bar that opened up close by a few weeks ago. We ended up with Thai curry - it was absolutely delicious and went down very nicely with a large glass of red whilst catching up on CSI!

Another lazy Saturday

I have a whole day ahead of me to do whatever I want - I love Saturdays. No work and its the weekend after payday so shopping is planned. I am off to rummage through the chaos in TK Maxx to see if I can find hidden treasures. I also need to get a day pack for hubby, but thats not so exciting! Check back for pics later...

Fashion, accessories, shoes and more shoes!

I love fashion, following trends, starting trends and dressing for me which is how this blog idea started. The wonderful fashionable ladies of MSE and their incredibly dedicated fashion blogs made me lust after their fabulous shoe collections and dream of being 6 foot tall and reed thin (instead of average curvy size 14) to be able to wear stunning floaty maxi dresses without feeling like a fool.
Working in your typical office environment, I am conscious of my 9-5 trousers and tops being dull, dull, dull! I want to be different (but not too different!). So it starts now...

My first post on my first blog - how exciting!
