My weekend has mainly been spent…
Waking up with a teeny tiny hangover. It was my 29th birthday on Friday and Mr. LA treated me to dinner out at Al Farid, a local Moroccan restaurant. We had an incredible evening, the food was delicious and the wine, well, let's just say it flowed! Madly tidying...
Our Honeymoon ~ What We Ate
If you've been hanging around these parts for a while, you'll have no doubt noticed that food is a huge part of my life. Not just the consumption, but the social event that is gathering together to enjoy a good meal. I especially like food that is an experience in and...
My weekend has mainly been spent…
Waking up to the news that we had run out of tea bags. Fuming. Being sufficiently grumpy that the husband felt an early morning trip to the local Spar shop was necessary. Wishing Mr. LA didn't have to work. Mourning the loss of my trusty point and shoot camera {hence...
Love Audrey Adores: The Vintage Drawer by Vicky Trainor
I like flowers.Real ones that grow in the garden and the kind you can plonk in a vase in your kitchen. I like pictures of flowers. Paintings that overflow with blossom, filling my imagination with their heady scent. I crave fabric printed with a ditzy floral and long...
Our Honeymoon ~ Where We Stayed: Sala Samui Hotel
It already feels like a lifetime has passed since Mr.LA and I landed at the small, airy airport on the island of Koh Samui. Despite flying without children for the first time in our entire history of travelling together, neither of us felt particularly rested at the...
My weekend has mainly been spent…
... solo parenting. I am exhausted. Mr.LA was due back today, but a corrupted memory card has forced him to stay an extra night so he can re-shoot all that was lost. I'm cheating this evening, having failed at my blogging duties this weekend and not managed to snap a...
A List for Summer
Izzy, complete with post-swimming lesson hair, licks a homemade ice-lolly. Isabel broke up from school on Thursday of last week and, thankfully, the sun appeared right on cue over the weekend. We've been working on a big decorating project over the last few days,...
Our Honeymoon ~ What I Wore
OK, so what follows is not exactly what I wore while we were on holiday. I'm allowed a little creative license though, aren't I? After all, it's my blog. Naturally, I've left out the unflattering pictures of me in my bikini. The tailored shorts from H&M that became my...
Love Audrey Adores ~ Honeymoon Favourites
I have a million blog posts swirling around my head at the moment, but life is conspiring against me and preventing me from spending any quality time with my laptop. Not only has Jesse suddenly decided he no longer feels like staying in bed of an evening, my husband...
My weekend has mainly been spent…
Sleeping in. Sipping tea and listening to the rain fall on the roof over the children's playroom. Eating scrambled eggs on hot buttery toast. Having a lazy morning. Spending more money than I'd like on groceries. Secretly quite enjoying beans on toast for lunch. Not...
Bon Voyage
SourceJust a quick note to let you know I'm jetting off on my honeymoon today! The husband and I will be spending the next two weeks staying at the Sala Samui in Koh Samui WITHOUT THE CHILDREN!I've arranged a handful of guest posts to keep you entertained while we're...
Jesse ~ A Birth{day} Story
I don’t really remember waking up on the morning of June 13th 2009 but I suspect it was Izzy, then four and a half, that roused us from our slumber. As had become the habit during the last few weeks of pregnancy, I was left to try and sleep a little longer. This time...
Dinner with Loveaudrey: Fried Halloumi Cheese with Lime and Caper Vinaigrette
I feel I'm taking something of a risk posting this recipe. It contains an array of ingredients that often divide opinion. I fear many of you will gag, or at the very least let out an audible 'bleugh', at the mere thought of capers and coriander. But someone out there...
Jubilating
I know, I know... you're sick of the sight of bunting and if you have to read one more royal family related pun you'll fling your laptop across the room. I'll keep it brief... 1 jubilee weekend, 2 parties, 1 birthday {my Gran, pictured in her smart pinny}, scones with...
Loveaudrey Gets Married ~ 15 Minutes of Fame
They put our wedding in a magazine. It makes me giggle every time I see it. Our little wedding, in a magazine! That's ME snogging MY husband at OUR wedding. Crazy. If you feel so inclined, you can find us in the July issue of 'Wedding', pg.114-15. Right, I'll...
My weekend has mainly been spent…
Being woken by Mr. LA as he left the house at 4am for a shoot in Brighton. Not. Impressed. Falling back to sleep. Being woken for a second time by the children. Snuggling in bed with them for another hour. Drinking tea and cooking fried eggs for breakfast. Coaxing the...
Happy 3rd Birthday to Loveaudrey
Yes, you read it write. Three years ago today, I clicked publish on my very first blog post. A lot has changed round here since then. Over time, this space has developed into somewhere that I share all the things I love, be it the latest addition to my lipstick...
Dinner with Loveaudrey: Cheat’s Meatballs and Spaghetti
I feel a bit of a fraud describing what I offer below as a 'recipe'. It's more a marriage of a few simple ingredients that just so happens to result in a satisfying meal. It's simple, yes, but it would never have occurred to me unless someone had suggested it.Perhaps...
Sunshine
Lazy, sun-filled days were just what I needed after a whirlwind weekend in London. How kind of the weather to oblige. We've done everything you're meant to do when the sky is bright blue and the sun is shining. There's been water play in the front garden, fresh...
My weekend has mainly been spent…
Sleeping in. Eating a fried egg sandwich and sipping tea. Enjoying a long shower while the children were glued to a DVD. Wearing my jeans with turn ups. Loving my stripey Mason Crew T from Gap. I'm buying these in every colour. Perfect cut, super soft cotton and just...
