Another week down as we hurtle towards September, let's get into it.
Just an update on the bunting progress: I'd give it a solid 5 out of 10 right now. It took me the best part of the yesterday to make but I think I've gone for a quote that's too long - I'm attempting 'Sincerely Yours, The Breakfast Club' (scroll to the bottom for a picture) - and I'm realising it's too LONG, it's maybe too big? I had a pressure mark on my hand from cutting out so many's E's. Fuck. Okay, restart.
1. Jules bought a toastie maker so here is my nutritious work lunch (cheese & ham toastie + Dairylea Dunkers).
2. I made this cake at the weekend after some plans got cancelled (I don't know what I was thinking) it looks like Play-Dough.
3. Mark your Tropicana
4. A flyer was in our letterbox from McDonald's so I've added it to our living room wall. What do we think? It's quite conceptual, isn't it? Have you ever seen a McDonald's burger like this in real life? Probably not.
5. Friday afternoon doodles, do you think these drawings look like me? Because they're supposed to.
6. I've marked the table in the living room as my designated workspace so my beloved Birth of Venus jigsaw had to go. Here's one final close up before she was put back in the box.
7. My print from Eva Malley arrived! Look!! So cute, I LOVE IT. Check out her stuff here. I also want to get something from Amy Victoria Marsh when I get around to it.
Other bits:
I almost forgot to mention that I finished my book: Where The Crawdads Sing. Oh my GOddddd you have to read it. So good. It's one of those books that's so good you wish you could erase your memory and read it again. I've just started The Midnight Library by Matt Haig, which has really great reviews so stay tuned for how I get on with that.
How about a quote? (and something I'm trying to bring into my life)
“You must be prepared to work always without applause.” - Ernest Hemingway
Until the next one,
