Tasty stews, Downton Abbey, Brett Anderson and a thrifted cardigan.

I’m feeling very optimistic today, quite positive and generally happy. I think it’s difficult sometimes to say this, without fear of tempting fate, but today I’m thinking what the hell? So there!

My weekend consisted of Lemsip (immune system at an all time low!), a scalp massager, working like a silly billy, listening to ‘Brittle Heart’ by Brett Anderson over and over (the most beautiful song), thrifty finds on my lunch break including; a red knit cardigan, maroon fitted trousers, a canvas regatta rucksack and an enamel jug to decant tasty hot alcoholic beverages! Watching Downton Abbey, plotting schemes and makery with some pretty fabric I bought, reading through the amazing talent that will be exhibiting at the Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair (very excited!), tasty stews, receiving gifts, watching City Of Men, red wine, our first Ocado delivery (great value and cheap delivery) and writing lots of nice lists…and breathe!

 

A thrifted red knit cardigan, regatta rucksack (gonna jazz it up a tad!), maroon fitted trousers. The only non thrifted item is this beautiful necklace the OH bought me. Pretty, non?

 

I’m looking forward to reading this DH Lawrence book, only 50p. Watching Certified Copy, courtesy of Love Film. Hatching plans of makery with these awesome retro fabrics (eBay) and I can’t wait to write ideas in this leather notebook (a gift).

 

 

First stew of the season (Chicken & Chorizo), first red wine and first Ocado shop!

 It was a fine weekend. How was yours?

    My weekend was spent helping my sister move to uni! Very weird but good 🙂 The stew sounds awesome, I’ve got a recipe for a root vegetable stew from River Cottage I wanna try out. Hope your week’s going okay 🙂
