a list of 10 little things that made me happy this week (technically this hasn't all been in a week.. but it still makes me happy so go with it!)



1. Having a cute little picnic in the park with Henry. Quality time, with food, in the sunshine, what could be better?!

2. Summer, Summer, Summer! My summer 'to do' list is bursting with ideas.

3. Fun, lazy and drunken bbq's. Of course the most recent one ended with us chatting and even dancing into the early hours...

4. Brixton Village. I totally fell in love the place when I visited for dinner with my mum & bro the other night. I will definitely be returning for some shopping and snacking.

5. That storm. Insane thunder and lightning clashing and rumbling at 2.30am? exciting!

6. Healthy Food! Greek yoghurt, honey & strawberries for breakfast is a favourite along with toasted pitta bread and hummus for lunch or a snack. Also I just bought a blender... smoothie anyone?

7. Testing the new hammock in Henry's garden with Hen and Emma on a beautiful summers evening.

8. Beer Festival. Blog post to follow on this, a day full of fun!

9. Fresh garden peas! Straight from the pods in Dad's garden. Gorgeous! & Strawberries. I seriously don't know what I'm going to do when they're are out of season. Withdrawal...

10. Rediscovering all those beautiful Summer dresses that had been crammed up in a draw all winter.

What's made you happy this week? 

-- 7th October 2013 - 13th October 2013 --




Of course, as nothing ever runs smoothly in this world, the wifi man did not turn up on Wednesday and we still don't have wifi in my flat... but I've payed for a day of internet so I will make the most of it and blog blog blog away...

1. Long walks along the sea front. Beautiful and relaxing, especially when the sun's setting.

2. The slight Indian Summer we've had here. Brighton is so beautiful in the sunshine and catching glimpses of the sparkling sea on my way to uni is so refreshing.

3. So, I loved the sun but nothing excites me quite like having to wrap up in your coat, scarf, hat and gloves when you venture out on an Autumn day. I love layering and chunky knits so I'm so excited to start wrapping up!

4. Starting university. Nerve wracking, full on and overwhelming but unbelievably exciting.

5. £1 drinks at Digital... it made for a very very fun and hilarious night! (Who doesn't love a night out?! I'm not an alcoholic... promise!)

6. In Your Atmosphere - John Mayer... I may be a little late on only just discovering this absolute gem of a song. It makes me so happy and makes me think of happy things :)

7. Starbucks Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate... the perfect winter warmer.

8. Seaside sunsets. I don't think it will ever get old.

9. Shopping for winter bits, birthday presents for loved ones and some new winter boots. Also, Shopping = hauls!

10. Being told I look like a young Kylie Minogue at a networking event... not had that one before, haha!

I have to say I'm missing the 'green-ness' and quietness of home. But I guess I have swapped trees for seagulls and fields for the ocean so I can't complain!

What's made you happy this week? What are you looking forward too next week?
