70th Birthday Party Weekend- Food Diary!

Hello!
Have you guys had a good weekend? I know I definitely have as you'll find out in a minute!

This weekend was based around food never a surprise with my family! In addition, it was all for a special occasion- My Grandma's 70th Birthday Party! So here's my Grandma's 70th Birthday Weekend Food Diary! (That's a mouthful)

Friday night kicked off with a Chinese takeaway! More family turned up. There was too much so there still is some to spare- whoops! It was so tasty with prawn toasts (my favourite😉!), rice, noodles and much more! I don't drink but those who do had a few drinks and we all had a great time!


The next day, we woke up to a chilled morning and breakfast. More guests turned up and we played with the little ones and socialised a bit more. By the time lunch came, we were all hungry again😮! Along the table, a buffet was laid including beef and salmon sandwiches- not together!







Desert came next, the birthday cake! I made the cake along with a little help from my brother who made a little of the icing and my auntie who helped buy the sparklers and turn the cake as I iced it!








After stuffing ourselves, again, we spent the afternoon, once again, chatting and just relaxing. Until dinner...

Before heading to a lovely restaurant, we got ourselves glammed-up and jumped in a taxi. The meal consisted of, for me, tasty tomato and onion soup, fresh seabass and raspberry cheesecake. 

When we got back home, we were all so tired that we decided it was a good idea to go straight to bed. And, that's just what we did.

The next day was Grandma's actual birthday so my auntie had set up some amazing decorations around the room for breakfast. We watched her open her gifts over pastries and cooked breakfast!









There were party poppers, balloons full of confetti and beautiful flowers! 
We used up the rest of the morning relaxing and getting ready for the rest of the day. Unsurprisingly, we then went out for lunch. This was Afternoon Tea!
In the mix of cakes, there were many things which we gauged ourselves on until we were stuffed- as we were all weekend!





My weekend was eventful, I wonder if yours was. Why don't you tell me about it in the comments!? If you enjoyed reading this, don't forget to follow for updates of when my new posts come out! Also, please share my posts with your friends if you like reading my blog!

Stay tuned for more,

January Must Haves 2019

How has your new year been so far? I'm pretty sure I slept through January as I honestly have no idea where it went. This month the weather started gloomy, but then right at the end the sun began to shine a bit longer and light snow not only filled the sky but also covered the paths roads and grass to create many photography opportunities. February is going to be a very exciting month for me and I can't wait to share bits of it with you!  One of my new year's resolutions was to learn more about skincare and improve my routine and my skin itself so as you could tell from my December Must Haves , I had begun a collection of products but January really boosted this and now I have a few more items to share with you. Clearasil and Simple play a big part in this post only because I love both brands so much and they work wonders for my skin! P.s. the best product is the last one so keep reading to find out what it is! Simple Protecting Light Moisturiser In winter I do

September Must Haves

Hey! Yes, I did have a little break- please excuse me! I was very busy working on some very exciting posts to keep you up-to-date with my autumnal antics! 😂 As you might already know, autumn just happens to be my favourite season because of the colours and just the general atmosphere so I was extremely excited to get to work on these posts!  Can we just speak about how it is the end of September already!? It feels like the start was only last week! What did you guys manage to jam-pack into September? This month has been great for collecting stuff to go in my Must-Haves because it has been my birthday! Enjoy! 1. Morphe 350 Nature Glow Palette This has some beautiful earthy colours for autumn; my favourites are the darker browns and slightly orangey tones. All colours are extremely blendable and have great pigmentation- it caught me off guard because I'm used to my palette without much, so I put quite a lot on and it looked as if I'd been punched in the face 😂. I

Hi everybody!!! I am so excited for you guys to see this post because I'm so proud of it! Now, I think it's about the right time to share with you what's in my main makeup bag at the moment. All the items that are shown here, I think, have been featured in previous posts but that was always going to happen anyway because all the items in my makeup bag are ones which I love so I would've recommended them before to you guys! If you do enjoy this, please remember to share with friends!!! Also- just a quick note- instead of linking the products at the bottom of the page, all the green words, you can click on to go to that webpage- tell me if it works! As you can see, in this photo, I have a snippet of my makeup bag showing which is from Next and is a decent size and I just think it's so pretty- it also has a gold 'E' on the front- you can choose the symbol you want. The first item in the bag is my foundation which is the Rimmel London Lasting Finish
