Currently reading....

I'm knee deap in a massive series series written by Kelley Armstrong and Im just loving the style of her writing. I'm reading book 9 out of 12 Living with the dead.


The thing is, I accidently found this author in a book of short stories.
The other thing is, I don't really like books of short stories. I only get them when they contain authors Im slightly obsessed with, because they often include excluded chapters from series I read, or side stories on minor characters etc.

So I was pleasantly suprised when I begrudgingly read a short story about characters from the Otherworld series and then embarked on reading all the books. The thing I love about this series is you usually meet the main characters from the next installment in the book you are currently reading.

How are these ones still in the shop?

I do have to ponder the above title for this post.... I currently have 50% off the entire store in celebration of reaching 50 shop sales.

I am astounded that stunnning frocks like these are still in the shop!
 
and this cute as hell mod scooter dress is screaming to be owned in time for festival season

They are all on my "if I get skinny again" radar, so get them before I do!

Doing this while I really should be cooking!

You see, this is exactly why I needed to start a blog.

It's just ater 4pm on a Sunday and while everyone else are laying around in blissful relaxation, I am feeling guilt over doing things other than the kitchen variety.

Why is it that we allow self guilt? Why am I unable to lie around on a weekend without feeling like I should be furiously scrubbing, washing and cooking up a storm.

So, really, this blog may be seen as an wexcuse, avoidance, or the one I am leaning towards: therapy! Ha!

Really, it will help link up a few things going on that can be hard to keep track of.

Today I did my time on the work stall going on as part of the Outskirts Festival in Northbridge. I bought myself this crazy awesome bag organiser made by Brag Bags
I bought this one in Black:

Considering how many times a change bags in any given week, this little puppy is going to make life a lot easier

Also picked up a leather vintage belt, black pants and two t shirts for M, so he was all happy!

Time to don the domestic apron and get on with it all.


On tonights menu is a ready rolled roast pork, no crackle so M and the kids will no doubt spit it. My thighs will thank me I am sure!
