A Sunday Well Spent


Sunday is quickly becoming my favourite day of the week.

Today consisted of walks in the park, salted caramel hot chocolate, baking bread, beef stew and the BAFTA's. 


I may have to make Sunday's like this a tradition.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

This post is for those of us who don't have a significant other, and are therefore spending today pretending to be strong, independent women, whilst secretly pondering over whether we'd prefer to be classed as a crazy cat lady or a crazy dog lady.

Although lets concentrate on the positive and read 19 reasons why being single is actually pretty awesome.

Don't forget to send yourself a card.

And remember to treat yo'self.

Plus, lets not forget this gorgeous man is (apparently) single now…


and he would definitely find you attractive, chocolate stained pyjamas and all.

However if you're destined to become a crazy cat lady, here's one of my favourite adverts from this week


or if you're more of a crazy dog lady, like myself, here's the puppy version


Now remember Ladies, we're strong independent women, we don't need no man.
(plus chocolate will be on sale tomorrow)

Chain of Good


Innocent are one of those companies who I would love to work for. Every Friday I receive my newsletter saying what's been happening at Fruit Towers that week and I always have a good giggle.

This week on twitter, Innocent have started their Chain of Good. The idea is to start a chain of compliments amongst your friends. Think of those chain letters you sent when you were 13, just with less threats of clowns hovering over your bed at night.

My mission for you this week is to send an Innocent compliment to each of your friends and start your own chain of good. Take a look, there's some gooduns.

Feel the Joy Friday

It's almost the weekend woohoo!

I thought I'd bring some extra joy to your Friday by sharing my favourite advert at the moment.


I can't watch this advert without smiling and doing a funny little head bob.

I'm considering making Feel the Joy Friday a weekly thing and posting something from that week that's made me smile.

We'll see.

The Weekend Post

I love those weeks where you have several good days in a row. This week was one of those weeks.

We all had friends to stay from home and it was really nice to have a full house. We had a night out for my housemates birthday on Thursday where we played beer pong for the first time and I discovered my new favourite drink, amaretto with cranberry and raspberry juice. 

Friday was spent sat on the sofa, eating a fancy hangover brunch consisting of croque monsieurs, orange juice and watching films.

Saturday was equally as good. We started off with a cup of tea at Fancie, before heading over to Graze Inn for lunch. We hurried back to the house ready to watch Wales win against Italy in the rugby before finishing off the day with a cheese board and watching The Bling Ring. 




Today was a lovely sunny day for a change, so we decided it was too good to waste. We grabbed a salted caramel hot chocolate from Starbucks and headed for a walk around the Botanical Gardens and Endcliffe Park where we fed the ducks. 




Now I'm settling down on the sofa ready to watch the Superbowl with the housemates. Red cups at the ready.
