- Loving Mr. LA for letting me lie in 2 days in a row. What a guy!
- Missing Izzy.
- Doing boring but essential household chores. Cleaning the kitchen bin is never a pleasant experience.
- Sipping on Starbucks hot chocolate and munching a cinnamon swirl. Mmmmmm.
- Wishing the Mister didn’t have to work all afternoon.
- Eating pitta bread and houmous with Jesse.
- Taking a trip to the local children’s library and reading Jesse lots and lots of stories.
- Braving H&M on a Saturday afternoon.
- Watching ‘Up’ with my little man. I adore this movie.
- Giving Jesse a bubble bath with a squirt of Lush’s It’s Raining Men shower gel and proceeding to sniff his hair for the remainder of the evening. It smells sooooo good, I really wish it wasn’t Limited Edition.
- Tucking Jesse in to bed with lot of kisses.
- Pouring myself a glass of wine.
- Waiting for Mr. LA to get back from work.
- Waiting some more…
- Still waiting.
- Finally eating a Chinese and snuggling on the sofa with my fella.
- Wearing my hair tied back in a high bun (which is as close I can get to a top knot without looking ridiculous) with minimal make-up and a slick of red lippy. Simple but effective.
- Taking a leisurely walk into town to pick up some groceries.
- Being very pleased to see Izzy.
- Somehow managing to avoid a serious scald when a mug of tea was accidentally spilt all over me.
- Eating soup.
- Playing hide and seek.
- Listening to Izzy read.
- Colouring in with the children.
- Cooking and eating dinner. The same yummy bean and lettuce stew from a couple of weeks back. Took a couple of pictures so you can expect a recipe, it’s seriously good.
- Reading bedtime stories.
- Hopefully watching Star Wars on the sofa in my pyjamas.

I am so buying humous when I do my next shop…I have the pitta, and you keep making me reeeeeally want it 😉
Please do post the recipe for the stew, it sounds yummy…I’m watching that Leon book on eBay at the mo, haven’t got many spare pennies, but I really want that too now!
Your weekend sounds lovely, essay free 🙂 Glad Izzy is back home with you, I hope she enjoyed her half term xxx
I eat waaaaay too much houmous, it’s one of my favourite foods. Having it on baked sweet potatoes later in the week (yup, I plan our meals that far in advance!)
I’ll probably get the recipe up tomorrow. I hope you win the book, it’s really, really good.
Izzy had an excellent time away but she’s very tired! 1st day back at school could be tough. Jesse is so pleased to have her home, he’s really missed her!

Hello! I was beginning to feel a bit bad for reading your lovely blog and never commenting so thought I’d better pipe up and say something! 🙂
I absolutely LOVE the It’s Raining Men shower gel. It’s just the most gorgeous smell, isn’t it. I’m planning to buy another big bottle tomorrow and then ration it until next Valentine’s Day. 😉

@madameguillotine Hello *waves* 🙂
Thank you for leaving a comment. I’ve just finished my big bottle of Its Raining Men and I’m planning on picking up at least 2 more, it’s just so delicious. It makes the chldren’s hair really soft and easy to brush too, which is a bonus!
