Pinkies up...

On Saturday, Matt and I went for afternoon tea at the Four Seasons Park Lane.  We have been here over a year and this is only the second time we have done afternoon tea.  What is wrong with us?   I love tea, I love little sandwiches, I love scones and I love love love dessert.  Why am I not doing this every weekend?!  Might be the price tag but really who cares when they are bringing out these cute individual portioned desserts.  It makes it all worth it..right?!  We are making a reservation at the Ritz for next month.  Can't wait!




Happy Hump Day!

Brighton

Hope you had a wonderful Easter.  We had a nice 4 day weekend, on Friday we went to Brighton.  It was a little chillier than I would like but it was still a great day.  We went to the Pier and Matt wanted to ride a few of the rides but I have a fear of carnival rides.  I will only go on rides if it's at an amusement park- the whole moving rides from location to location thing freaks me out and I don't trust them.  So we ended getting cotton candy instead :)  I was happy until I noticed it looked like my hair?!  I was embracing my inner Marge Simpson! HA

Last year...

We were moving into our flat.  That day was filled with laughs, tears and few %*@# what did we do?!  To think this is what our place looked like last year.  I am still saying %*@# how did this all fit in here?!  Yes I like to curse, especially in stressful situations ;)

Sorry for the blurry iphone pics.  I wasn't about to try and find my camera during this. 

a little ray of hope shining through..ha

Just half my wardrobe- the movers were unpacking and laughing in the bedroom.  
I was crying

Looks like the kitchen is coming along pretty good.  So we thought!  Later that night we found out the dishes were bigger than the cabinets.  Try and guess which cabinet is the fridge.

Matt putting away his clothes.  Nice calves dude!  

We can admire my shoes instead of watching tv...

Another shot of my clothes.  


To see what it looks like now and read what we learned click here.  We did end up giving a lot of things away that day.  I would say most of this furniture will be staying here when we move back to the States because I am not sure they will be able to get it out.

It's a Druzy

The Druzy quartz stone has become popular over the last few years because of its beauty.  Druzy quartz is a thin layer of quartz crystallizing over the surface of a stone.  It is not only beautiful but has also been said to help aid in balancing and increasing energy.   This gem has won me over and I found a few pieces I wouldn't mind adding to my jewelry collection.  I'm smitten with the first ring and bracelet.
