Just a few gifts

Just a few gifts

Here is a little selection of some of the goodies I received for Christmas and my Birthday:

Some really great books:
Everything Alice
Hoping to start doing reviews of my little library of creative books soon!

 
Arriety on BlueRay with some great artwork posters
and some really quirky board games.

Then my lovely sister bought me the above cupcake set.
Does this mean she wants me to bake her some cakes?? haha My not-so subtle sister.

This weekend's events

This weekend's events

So yesterday was quite eventful. 
A lazy morning followed by me finally getting my haircut, it's been around a year and it was far too long for me to handle. I've decided to keep most of the length but give it a good tidy-and a fringe!


Eek-I do like it for a big change, and it was my first time in a salon as I have always had a mobile hairdresser before, but it's taking some getting used to.
Tom and I went to a friends house for some home-made lasagne and drinks before heading into town.
The evening was lovely right up until we left for town and got stuck in the Lift for about 1hour.
Grrr-I think it's home time!

Birthday part 2-this time it's with the family.

Birthday part 2-this time it's with the family.

I spent Friday evening baking my very own huge French fancies cake!!
It was very delicious-Victoria sponge, butter cream, jam, icing, and chocolate topping-whoa the calories. 





 We spent the day shopping in town and then the lovely Jamie Oliver's restaurant for tea-Thanks Papa Fox!

Snow day

Snow day

So today was my 24th birthday, and although I couldn't have my family around me it has been a really great day! 
After work yesterday Tom treated me to a GBK meal out-it was super yummy! 


Then we had tickets to see a show at the Leeds City Varieties named Big Society starring Phill Jupitus.
The show was awesome, I really enjoyed it and the cast had such amazing voices!

Today we opened the curtains to find a lovely snowy white Leeds.
