New Bedding
There is only one thing better than clean sheet day, that's new sheet day! I got us a whole new set of bedding in Adairs and today it got it's first outing, isn't she a beauty? I splash out a bit on our sheets and get bamboo, it's softer than the softest cotton and washes so well, this time we were lucky and they were on sale, but still well worth the money. The quilt cover is a bit away from our norm, I tend to get us white bedding with minimal patterns, but this just called out to me.
While I was getting our bedding I spied this beautiful throw. I feel the cold in the winter and love to snuggle under a blankie of some kind (yes I am 5, I like a blankie, what of it?!). Usually it's a fleece number but not any more! I love the colour of this and it feel like puppies ears, it's that soft. I'll have to try and keep the Beans sticky little hands off it so it stays in good condition.
I've had a voucher for one of the big department stores for ages and hadn't been inspired to spend it (yes I know, it's unheard of!). After a wander with the Bean I spotted this amazing cardigan from French Connection and, with an extra bit of cash towards it, made that baby mine! I think it will be worn more as a coat than an every day cardigan and I might invest in a nice belt to bring it in a bit at the waist as a way of giving it a bit of a different shape.
I've fallen behind on my recipes but I am determined so last week I managed to get 2 new ones in. Crispy beef stir fry and a new veggie dish for meat free Monday.
