Keep Calm and Eat a Cupcake

Gosh can you believe we are back to a Sunday catch up post again already! Is it just me or did Monday to Friday get skipped this week?! Oh yes I remember they were days when glorious 30 degree weather graced us here in England and where was I? In an office. With the air con blasting. In a chunky knit cardi. Wearing a scarf. Because that makes perfect sense!

Seeing as I am scheduling this post for Sunday and actually writing it on Wednesday (off to Dorset for the weekend to the land of no internet) I can’t actually say for sure if I have a job still next week or not as I find out tomorrow (Thursday, in case your lost) whether I am being extended! So after that babble, I DID have work this week in which I had to say bye to my work chum Chloe as it was her last day...sad face.


This week saw me on the brink of a mental break down too which was very pleasant. To cut a long story short – FINALLY (!!) have my bedroom furniture, only Tescos (it’s not tacky I promise!) decided that at 8.30am my delivery was delayed and wouldn’t arrive until the next day, but at 3pm it magically appeared. Anyway trying to get through to the store the confirm whether or not I needed to collect it was needless to say a nightmare and followed with six “I can’t get through, I can only suggest you call back in ten minutes madam”’s. ANYWAY, got there, got the furniture. “Where’s the mirror?” “Oh, I don’t know, it’s not here”. Perfect!

And to top it off my laptop has a mahoosive bug which means it won’t open anything. If anyone knows anything about rundll32.exe errors, please could you help me?? I’ll cry if it is broken.


Aside from a much needed drink with my friend, carpenters in and out of the house and a high consumption of chocolate buttons, my week has been reasonably dull.

Cheer me up with exciting tales from your week...?


Ps, here’s a sneak peek at some of the items I purchased last weekend – I have a whole post coming up on the soon.

Pps, discovered Kavita’s blog this week and it’s a new favourite of mine. Check it out, although be warned she is super gorgeous and will make you very envious. Enjoy!
