Just got back from a lovely little garden party! It was all in aid of a friend's upcoming wedding. I donned my new polka dot dress (Primark... £5! Absolute bargain!) some pearls, and a matching polka dot bow in my hair. I had a lovely evening, filled with pimms, gorgeous food, and much laughter! Its great to see and catch up with friends that I just don't see often enough! The weather was brilliant too, very lucky, seeing as it was forecast to rain.
A lovely little welcome message on the kitchen blackboard.

The food was absolutely lovely! All the classic BBQ components, burgers, sausages, chicken legs, jacket potatoes and coleslaw, with some other delights, like ratatouille and some delicious halloumi and vegetable kebabs. It has inspired me to try out a halloumi and portabello mushroom recipe out... yum! My friend's mum also made some lovely cupcakes: (above) vanilla cupcakes with strawberry icing and a fresh strawberry on top, and (below) chocolate cupcake and icing with a caramel heart on top! They were yummy!
I Love Scrabble... Me and my sisters without fail, every Christmas, sit down to some epic games of Scrabble. The world seems to share my love for geeky game and has incorporated it into all kinds of lovely things! Like my wonderful "Geek" Scrabble necklace courtesy of Miss Holly's Boutique over at Rokit Vintage... I also really want the Scrabble sofas and the Garden Scrabble!
This is a little post for my mum. Yesterday was such a beautiful day that I decided to take myself and my camera down to Horsforth park. My mum loves trees so I thought I'd take a few photos for her to enjoy! The sky was such a gorgeous blue colour, and although it was still quite chilly in the shade, the sunshine was glorious! These are my favourite kind of days where it's cool but sunny.
The spring flowers were making an appearance and lots of daffodils were almost ready to open. There's nothing a little splash of colour to brighten my day!
