Liverpool

This week I headed up to Liverpool to visit my mum with my friend and her kids (She forbids me to put her name and face on my blog!) The weather was rubbish but we had a great time eating good Northern grub,sinking in sand,Iron men, fun fairs and flea markets . It was my first time away from Henrik since we got married which felt pretty odd!

Sunday

Early car boot sales, farm shops and a bit of DIY. Perfect.
Going up North tomorrow to see my mum, last week of my
summer holidays..... boo hoo
Is'nt that sting ray cute?

Hitchin

Whilst Henrik was putting up blinds this morning I drove to Hitchin to the market.
Felt like getting out of London for a few hours.....

Pottering around

Today was too hot. I've been moaning that summer is yet to arrive in London but now Im ready for autumn! I just pottered about today, tidying,cooking,reading, napping. So lazy, but very nice.....

Brownies

I prefer recipes where I can just throw things together, this one works perfectly

for me. Yum

Wedding

I just found some things from our wedding that made me smile....
A commemorative plate,the felt birds from our cake, the little birds we gave to our guests and the feathers I wore in my hair.
Im going to put them in a special box, keep them safe.

New

I find it hard to get back into normal life after a holiday. I've been lazing around and doing some baking, but not much else. Im loving my new cushion from Skinny laminx and my portmeirion totem sugar bowl and jug from e bay and this lovely new tray from Ikea (the last thing I needed was another tray but I could not resist!)

Swimming & boating

Lars bought a little boat and Henrik LOVED it. We spent many hours rowing

and motoring up and down Oslo fjord and headed over to Ramton Island for 

swimming and picnics.

Relaxing at the cottage

As soon as we got home from Denmark the sun came out and we have had 4 lovely days swimming,boating, eating and sleeping. Lovely.
