Nurturestore

I can feel a obsession coming on! http://nurturestore.co.uk
I came across it on Pinterest and am now constantly writing down ideas that I want to try/make with Cerys. I have been on the look out for a website like this for so long. There are lots of Halloween and Autumn themed things to make and do at on there at the moment!
We made our very first one yesterday - the Halloween yarn pumpkin and there are so many more I want to attempt! Can't wait! :-)

Popcorn and lollipops!

We enjoyed a pleasant afternoon at Folly Farm, no I'm not always there ;-)
I fell in love with this horse in photo!
He spent most of his time with his back to everybody but for some reason we caught each others eye. As I walked over to see him he came directly over to me! Lovely moment!
Cerys had a lovely time, we saw animals, went on rides and managed the play area today. We also managed doughnuts and popcorn and came home with sweets and a lollipop!
I always get inspired by the sensory experience that they have. I would really like to have some
Lights like these in Cerys's bedroom obviously on a smaller scale!
Well,we had a lovely day and made even better by the news that my nephew got a gold and a bronze medal in his gym competition today! Well done Danny!
Had the usual frantic Sunday evening but sat down now with Downton Abbey on the TV- my little treat before the week ahead!
If anybody chances to come across this post- wishing you a good week ahead! :-)

Suddenly- Madame glamour

Yes, the thought of wearing a supermarket brand perfume scared me. A few months ago though I found it on offer at £1.99 instead of the usual £3.99 in my local Lidl so I had to try it. I have to admit I was not very familiar with Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle but I am a fan of Coco Chanel original and at £1.99 it was no to be sniffed at (pardon the pun) :-)
First impressions, I wasn't too sure but it has grown on me. More importantly, I thought that somebody was wearing the Lidl perfume recently but it was in fact Chanel.
I wore it today and had lots of compliments. While nobody did ask was it Chanel, I did get asked was it Calvin Klein? So my fears of it smelling cheap have vanished!
I don't find that it lasts for too long but at under a fiver I don't think you can complain. For a day to day perfume
It does the job and a good job at that!
I like the bottle itself except for the white bottle top but again at that price- I really can't complain!
Very impressed!
