I won this my entering a competition on a youtube video (I knew watching them would eventually pay off!) and I actually was picked. I never win anything :D it's a pretty eyeshadow palette. The colours a nice, a few I wouldn't wear but I like the pinks, and the greens. Unfortunately the light gold was damaged in the post and I would have used that more but never mind.
I did say I would take some photos of the donna hay book that i'm still in love with. It's just so pretty! There is another book, modern classics 1, which I desperately want but it's either too expensive or in Australia, so I'll keep searching. The smaller books - chicken & salads and veg book look great too so I am hunting for them all.
My adorable kitkat, who isn't best pleased now her tv is gone. No room for her to sleep on top of a flatscreen so she's taken to either sleeping in her tissues or in my chair.
A welcomed break after the hot weather we've been having. It was up to 34c last week, which was a bit too hot when out in the sun..
The first courgette from the garden and it was lovely. Tasted just like a courgette, funnily enough, but yay!
I'm getting really bored of making scones now.. I've tried to change them up though and have done chocolate ones recently (which are lovely!) coffee and walnut, coffee and chocolate but you can't beat the smell of cinammon, mixed spice & dried fruit and cheese & chive scones baking in the oven.
More tatas from the garden. So far we have about 16lbs worth of them, so many infact that we've had to give some away as we had too many. We also have courgettes that are nearly ready, so i can't wait for them!
New furniture to go better with the new tv. Looks uch nicer than the antiques we had before :D
Nail biting stuff. Although unfortunately the wrong Andy won, so that was a bit crap really.. but there's always next year!
My neighbours super cute kitten! I like this photo as it's very what he's like - timid, yet nosy :)
I've never heard of this stuff or knew it existed until I saw it on a youtube video. It's dry shampoo and when your hair goes a bit greasy, then you spray it on and tada, it makes your hair look like it's been washed again! I needed this yearsssss ago!
The best thing about the new tv?
The new tv in action, it's amazing! So big compared to our old tv (which has gone to our favourite neighbour) Also showing my love for masterchef.
Mmm shiny shiny lovely tv. From costco. It was cheap already and then there was £50 off using their vouchers so we had to purchase it. It literally just fit in the car. If the box had been half a cm bigger we wouldn't have got it home!
My cousin is researching our family tree, he's doing pretty amazing so far and finding family we never knew existed. Anyway, this is photo of a relative from years back. I find it hilarious because she looks super drunk!
Sudocream, which is normally good for babies, is apparently great for spots and stuff so I bought some of that too try (I have too many creams now that I don't know what ones to use and when)
All from the garden :) I'm so pleased that we've got so many potatoes from our first time of growing them ever. Pretty impressive and they actually taste just like potatoes (duh) and probably even better!
Pretty new bracelets. All for £1.49 from oxfam. Similar ones from accessorize cost £6 and they are all one colour usually so I did good!
My new top, which I love love love so much. It's from new look, and cost just £8 and I used a voucher so it actually cost £4, I think. I just love it. I wish they had it in different designs or something but I'm not sure they do, so boo to that.
I've always wanted to try this. It's apparently one of the best nail strengthening products. A little bit pricey which is why I put off buying it but I finally decided to give it a go, so fingers crossed it works.
Something else from elf
Because of course, I need more lip glosses. Hmm. Anyway, these are very cute. They are lip glosses in slidey tins. One smells of coconut (the bottom one) which is lovely as coconut is my alltime favourite smell. The other one doesn't smell so nice but leaves a nice colour on the lips.
New top. A bit different from what I would normally go for I guess (I'm getting older) but it's lovely and thin and perfect for the summer.
