organic veggies

If I had kids or were having them soon I’d be purchasing this adorable crate of veggies made from organic Egyptian cotton. I’m going to raise vegetarian babies one day so I think this would be perfect.

From underthenile. Unfortunately sold out *sniff* but you can purchase the vegtables individually so you could get the cutiee mushroom still.

noisy neighbour

I’m in such a bad mood this morning because I’m tired and have a headache all because of our downstairs neighbour. He decided to have a very loud conversation on his mobile phone which he must have put on speaker phone. We could hear the person he was talking to who sounded all tinny like on a phone. It was 1.30am in usually quiet neighbourhood so he should know better. C jumped up and down rather violently on the floorboards which was met with a “Fuck off” by neighbour. That made C super mad so he opened the window and shouted out something far ruder. He sort of shut up after that though I heard him chatting again later on. I think he finishes work about midnight and he comes home and smokes all the way through his flat which rises up into our flat making our rooms smell rancid. That coupled with his incessant loud chatting made us very angry.

airbrushing

If you’ve often wanted to see what celebrities and models really look like without airbrushing then check out the portfolio of iWANEX Studio. Shock horror Justin Timberlake has under eye circles, Beyonce has a tiny roll of fat and Brittany Murphy has large pores! Just goes to show what you see in magazines is not the whole truth.

mr and mrs

I’m rather tardy when it comes to blogging about what I actually get up to in my life so here is what we did last weekend. C and I took a train back home to Otley and stayed at my parents so we could attend a wedding in Ilkley on Saturday. I’ve known Liz since we were 5 and she used to come round after school sometimes and have fishfingers and beans (I didn’t go vegetarian till I was 13). Anyways the bride looked radiant and the groom looked dapper. It was great to catch up with school friends. We also attened the evening party and I managed to get drunk on a bottle Staropramen and 2 glasses of wine which meant I got up to dance with C.

I’d spent the previous weeks before the wedding worrying about what to wear. I managed to find a lovely dress from Monsoon in the sale and purchased a cream shrug to go with it which bizarrely cost more than the dress. C looked very handsome in his black velvet jacket. Evrything went swimmingly until just as we were going in the door of my parent’s house C got pooed on by a bird on his jacket and shirt.
