21 Things I love about Autumn & Winter



Morning guys, guess what - it's October which means...Autumn is now here! Autumn & Winter are my favorite seasons, I've always been a bit of a winter bird. If you follow me on Twitter you will know that each year I harp on about how I hate Summer with a passion and how I absolutely love Autumn & Winter. To me, summer is the worst. I hate the the fashion and I hate the sweltering hot weather. The second half of the year is much more to my liking and so I thought I would make a list of things I love this time of the year...

1. Christmas
2. Getting wrapped up and wearing knitwear, winter boots, scarves, gloves & hats
3. Watching Christmas films with the family
4. Looking at the snow and rain from your bedroom window
5. Making Hot Chocolates
6. Eating thick soups with chunky bread rolls
7. Bonfire night
8. Fireworks
9. Dressing up looking gruesome for Halloween
10. Decorating the house with festive decorations
11. Going shopping and buying Christmas Gifts
12. Wrapping Christmas Gifts
13. Celebrating the Christmas Holiday's & New Year with loved ones
14. Baking Festive Cookies & Cakes
15. Making Snowmen
16. Having Snowball Fights
17. Walking the dog on a cold winters day
18. Having get togethers and visiting family

My Weekend

Hello my lovelies, so this weekend has been a very lazy one, possibly lazier than I actually dare to admit!
On Friday night, me and Kyle went on a trip to Asda to fetch some goodies and he very kindly treated me to the Frozen DVD which I was over the moon about (regardless of the fact I fell asleep half way through as usual...). He also went to get a Ben & Jerries tub but I refused to have any unless it was Peanut Butter Me Up! The look on my face when I got home and saw that was the flavour he had bought was a picture. Treat night just got 10x better! 



In the morning when we woke up, Kyle suggested going to Frankies & Benny's for breakfast. We've been there loads of times before but never for breakfast - which is something we've always wanted to do. After eating a ridiculous amount of ice cream last night however, I was feeling guilty and food was the last thing on my mind! Once I had got up showered, dressed and ready though I soon gave into temptation...so off to Frankies and Benny's we went! I went for the Pancake Stack served with Bacon & Maple Syrup & oh my, words cannot express how good it was. Kyle went for the Eggs Benedict which looked truly delicious, we both went for a standard English Tea to drink. 

On the Sunday morning we went for a family Costa outing with my mum, nanny and sister - because my sister was back home for the weekend, which in itself is a huge rarity so it was absolutely lovely to have a natter over some coffee! Afterwards, myself, Kyle and Paris (my sister) decided to wander along to the Mayflower Sanctuary in Bawtry to visit all the little puppies that don't have a forever home. It's really sad but the environment the dogs are in is fantastic. I'm not allowed my own dog so every month me and Kyle go over and take lots of doggy treats and spend some time with them. My sister had never been before so we decided to bring her along to see the lovely little puppy dogs! 

Oh and also as you can see in the picture below I opted for a golden dust on my eyes. I also tried contouring which I will get write a post about in the next couple of weeks so keep on the look out!!

The whole of Sunday afternoon consisted of baking - my favorite! Now I've been on a healthy eating hype but have had a very naughty treat weekend this weekend. However, to curb future cravings I thought I would give this 'healthy' baking malarkey a try. I decided to go for a (healthier) alternative to Reese Peanut Butter Cups, Banana Loaf & Banana Frozen Yogurt so that I am armed with rations available in case my naughty ego decides to fancy something sweet without feeling too guilty afterwards. 

In the evening me and Kyle decided to pop over to see my dad's little spaniel - Biscuit (my favorite little prince!). My dad has gone to Wembley for the afternoon to watch the cup game so we thought we'd pinch Biscuit for a while and take him for an evening stroll. It's always a pleasure looking after him as he really is so gorgeous with his lovely glossy coat and his boundless amounts of energy. 
Well after reading through this post I've just realized I managed to squeeze rather a lot into one weekend but that's the way I like it :) busy busy busy.
