As my other half was working from home today we decided to take some time out and go on a date! We try to do this every now and then, making the most of the time our 2 year old is at nursery by spending some time together, just the two of us.
We headed to a nearby town, had a little browse round the shops, and stopped for coffee....OK, coffee and cake....
My tasty little treat was a raspberry and almond bake....and delicious it was too!
OH went for a scone....topped with lashings of thick clotted cream and strawberry jam, mmmm!
Have you drooled on your keyboards yet?!
While having a look in some shops I spotted this gorgeous cup and coaster set and couldn't resist buying it!
Isn't it gorgeous? I love it. It's very Cath (Kidston) like, but without the price tag!
I also needed a few buttons for the make up bags I was making so headed to some of the charity shops that I knew had plenty for sale and managed to find these beauties -
I was specifically looking for large white/cream ones so I was very restrained and only bought what I needed for the job in hand!
Isn't it lovely when you have a little unexpected outing, and manage to find a few pretties to brighten up your day?
Heehee I drooled on my iPod so technically that doesn't count!! :D I love dates with my husband. With the youngest not yet in nursery and only rare babysittings we have a date night a few times a month at home when the fabulous 4 are all tucked up in bed. Sometimes we're so tired but it's always been worth the effort! Love the pretty items!! :) x
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely impromptu date! I wish the husband (eeee) and I were able to do it! I love your new products! So lovely! xx
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely date and some pretty purchases as well :)
