My Easter Weekend in Pictures

I hope you are all having a lovely Easter weekend.  I have had a fairly quiet one involving chocolate, baking and petting cute lambs!  Oh, and trying to avoid the mouse that appeared in our kitchen on Friday night - I think my scream woke up all the neighbours!

My Hotel Chocolat Easter Egg from Hubby - it tasted amazing.  I love Hotel Chocolat chocolate and they make the best Easter eggs.  It is very rich though so there is no scoffing it all in one session!
 



Hubby and I visited a farm cafe nearby as we always do around Easter to see the lambs.  They were very cute and nibbled my finger slightly!  There are also tons of hens wandering about as you can pick your own free range eggs there too.  



I had a bit of a baking session and made some cheese scones.  They may not look too pretty (I tried using a heart cookie cutter to shape them!) but they tasted delicious.



A trip to our local weekly market to pick up some delicious lunch.  There are more stalls here every week and you can always be guarenteed to spy lots of tasty food and drink.  I picked up some fabulous home-made lemonade which was delightfully refreshing. 

Have you been up to much this weekend?

My Week in Photos #1


I hope you have all had a fab week - mine has been especially good as I am now off work for two whole weeks!  I've got quite a lot of fun stuff planned,: I am visiting family and I've also got a wee weekend break to St Andrews planned for the second week with hubby which i am very much looking forward to!

Here is a round up of my week in photos:

1. Deluxe - Dana Thomas
I bought this book after seeing a review on Paris' blog. I'm looking forward to getting stuck into it during my time off!

2. Jolie Box
This was my first Jolie box and I wasn't that impressed to be honest.  I have cancelled my subscription as I feel I can spend my £13 a month on something more useful that I actually want.

3. A Night at the Museum
A visit to the late night event at the National Museum of Scotland. We started with a yummy Indian food at one of my favourite restaurants, followed by drinks, music, an Egyptian mummy exhibition and the chance to stroke baby meerkat and hold giant millipedes - the perfect Friday night!!
So much tasty food!

Hubby holding millipede - was a bit crawly for me!
 
4. Hen Party Fun!
A fab hen weekend in Glasgow which involved a Grease dance class, 50s style outfits and some v tasty homemade cupcakes. I also completed my testing  of the Tigi Sugar  Dust  with the help of my friend Helen. A review will be coming up this week.


5. Six Nations 
I went to the Six Nations Scotland v France rugby match  today. It was my first time at Murrayfield and the atmosphere was amazing. Would have been even better if Scotland had won though.. :-( 

 
I hope you had a good weekend. I'm now planning  on spending most of tomorrow sleeping after my uncharacteristically hectic weekend!
