My goodness, why hadn't I been here sooner?! With a cheeky little deal found on my phone and some time to spare before the cinema, Alex and I headed off to the Gourmet Burger Kitchen and it was scrummy.
I enjoyed everything, to their special salt on the skinny fries, to my amazing ginger and lemongrass fizz. They had all the giant windows open and so it was nice to lap up the last of the heat before my favourite seasons kick in. Even then it'll be great to go there; who can say no to a giant, mouth watering burger?

^  mmm, yummy fizz ^

I may have cheated...



I may have made it from a box but it was pretty tasty and loads of fun making all the swirls. And topped with some left over frosting from my when I made my Dad's cake; well we were on to a winner. A perfect pud for a Sunday after our roast.

my week(s), according the photos i've taken.


Walks to make me feel better. Yummy breakfasts. Office dog for the day. A temporary gym buddy. Wedding fun. Just a few things that have filled up the past couple weeks.

sometimes on a sunday.

 
^ Sunday morning's breakfast was pretty good too ^

Sometimes you just need a Sunday roast; today is that day. We had initial plans of inviting some friends round and having a traditional family afternoon lunch, instead, we scaled it down. That's right, we made it just us (I feel like saying 'and the dog' which would just be perfect, but we can't have one just yet). We had a typical Sunday, of a late start to the day, strolls, films football and hearty lunch. Next time I swear will be more welcoming and invite people (we did have people over on Friday so we haven't been complete recluses this week), I mean its fast approaching autumn, which means it'll be perfectly acceptable to cook a roast every Sunday.

seeing in september.




These are just a few items that I want to buy (and soon). Autumn is fast approaching and I think these are the perfect September clothes to slowly ease back into winter before the really thick knitwear is found and the many many layers are worn.

my week(s), according the photos i've taken.


For the past couple of weeks I've been ill (I still am); it is never any fun. But even less when you have to organise a trip home, including baking and carrying a massive cake home to Devon. I even thought I'd be super fit and go to the gym lots and that was wiped out. Still, copious of honey and lemon aside, last weekend was great. I haven't been home since January and so it was great to see everyone. Even the rain didn't dampen my spirits...and there was a lot of it! This week I was spontaneous and went for another trip home; it was lovely and the fresh was helping me feel a lot better...cue coming back to London, being sent home from work and working from home today. I've stocked up on so many vitamins, cough medicines and anything else that's to hand in the hope of getting better and soon. This can't run into it's 4th week can it?!
