Monday: The week kicked off with the joyous task of doing the groceries. I know. The glamour never ends. And neither does the excitement. Although my day did end with the bottom of my slow cooker melting and then exploding when I shook the cord to see what was going on, so that was a bit exciting. If melting, exploding kitchen appliances are your thing. Which I'm guessing they're not.
Also received this photo from my awesome friend, Mel...
Mel is what can only be described as a Hardcore Loyal Reader of this blog and whips up just about every recipe that I post. So far she's made ham and cheese muffins, slow cooked cashew chicken, chocolate chip loaf, butterscotch biscuits and apparently she's going to make the Amy Atlas/TomKat Studio approved Kit Kat Cake in a few months time. Awesome work Mel (and Ellie!) Your choc chip patty cakes look delicious xox

Look how happy and stylish they look in their matching polar fleece jackets. Not to mention warm.
Wednesday: Was stuck at home with two sick kids. The joys of Motherhood. They never end.
Tempting.
Thursday: Still stuck at home, but only with one sick kid. Thank god for small mercies. Spent a vast quantity of time surfing the net, while the sick one rested, and came across this doozy of a baby shower invite...
Check out the dress code. 'Garden Chic' FTW. Or should that be FFS. I'll let you decide.
Original ideas are very hard to come by in the party world and I reckon this is one of the best I've seen. Also probably one of the most expensive. But let's face it, that's how the Kardashians roll. And who wouldn't want to cute ballerina jewellery box invitation that played Kanye's voice singing a lullaby to you every time you opened it? Wait. Don't answer that. I think I'd rather pole my eyes out with a burning stick that have to listen to that sort of a lullaby. How about you?
Friday: Met my girlfriends for coffee where we talked about things like my abs of steel and crop tops. Not even kidding. Apparently they wish they had abs like mine. I keep telling them it's not hard to achieve. You just need a dodgy thyroid, a love of chocolate and a fear of all things fitness related and BAM! you've got yourself one hot, rocking body.
Have a good weekend peeps. Stay safe and I'll see you back here next week for more ridiculous nonsense xox





Ha ha - thanks for the giggle Kirsten. Are you coming on Wednesday to the Redland Bloggers Meetup?! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteYep, I'll be there! Looking forward to meeting you :)
Deletetoo funny!! the Polar Fleece was my favourite bit . . sick kids . . . can you imagine what they did before TV was invented! It was so cold here last week I even thought about buying some track pants . . .remember the old ones with tight elastic at the ankles . . .those ones! HOpe this week is better! lovT
ReplyDeleteI'm ashamed to admit that I quite like the polar fleece jacket. It's very warm and cosy, even if it does make me look like Rose from The Golden Girls when I wear it. I do remember those track pants! Really can't imagine you in them, but sometimes the cold weather makes us do silly things ;)
