24.02

Hello, how is your week going? Same old same old here, so just a quick post with the usual outfits and this week's baked goods.

Yesterday was cold and snowy so not much went out. Outfit was literally a case of grabbing whatever was clean and hoping for the best.

Today much the same, no real thought went in to this as you can tell. The tights are new, I picked up this pair and a teal pair for £1 each in Ethel Austin on my brief trip out yesterday.

I've stopped counting how many pairs of tights I own now, it's getting ridiculous. I'll be needing rehab soon.

This week I've baked lemon and poppyseed muffins at my Mum's request. I used silicon cases in a mix of sizes, and we now have about 40 muffins to be eaten!

I'm pretty sure they wont be hanging around long, they smell incredible. There really is nothing like the smell of fresh baked goods in the house.

Hey you! Urgh, why did it have to snow? C'mon, it's almost March already.

You have so many awesome tights! And of my, those muffins look soooo good! I'm feeling really ill today, so I'm stuck in bed sleeping. *sad*

Enjoy the rest of your week

Don't worry about the outfits, you look great no matter what you wear. Besides I do really like the second dress.

Those muffins look delicious! I've been procrastinating in the baking department, but I should really make the blueberry muffins I was planning on making soon.

Loulou said...

Ooh, those muffins look lush. Love coloured tights and at that price who could resist?

Kel said...

Can you let us know the recipe? they look fab. I love using the silicone trays, so much easier.

The second dress is gorgeous, where is it from? and the first has such a pretty print!

What cute dresses! I particularly love the second one, very fashionable.
The cakes sound so good, I must definitely try and make them...Except French people don't even know poppy seed can be used for cooking, so I might have to wait to Spain to be able to bake these!
