Four Days, Fifteen Snaps


 On Friday I treated myself to sushi for lunch, since I'd been so busy decluttering all week and there were no leftovers at home anyway.
 
 
It was pretty good!
 
 
I also decluttered some belts:
 
 
 
Once upon a time I had a hanging rack thing on my bedroom door for stuff like dressing gowns and scarves, but we had new doors put in a while ago and the rack doesn't fit any more.  I moved my scarves to the wardrobe and hung my dressing gowns from the picture rail on the wall behind the door.
 
 
I used 1980s-style ornate picture hooks because I just have such good taste when it comes to interior decorating.
 
 
This went on for a while but on Friday I realised I thought maybe, just maybe, I could hang the whole hanging rack from the picture rail.  And as it turns out, I was right!
 
 
I chucked the pink dressing gown because it's scruffy now and I retrieved this vintage nylon number from a storage box.  It doesn't have a hanging loop so I put it on a hanger suspended from one of the picture hooks.  I love storage solutions!
 
 
On Saturday Jim brought me some flowers.
 
 
Then I went to my Nana's place to pick up some trifle, and when I got there look what she was doing:
 
 
Reading Expect Cowgirls!  And having Happy Hour.
 
Hello Nana if you're reading!
 
 
She had some Christmas decorations up too.
 
 
 
Here is the trifle:
 
 
Yum!
 
 
Afterwards I went to my cousin's place for a BBQ.
 
 
On Sunday I went to the pub for Ben's birthday.  Happy birthday you lemon!
 
Meg looked so good in her Summery maxi dress:
 
 
 
FF looked nice too:
 
 
Just kidding, that's Emily! Could've fooled me though.
 
 
I had one of these lovely cocktails.
 
 
It was called a Russian Rose but it tasted quite like a cosmo. Tasty
 
 
And when I came home look what I found:
 
 
Festive! Thanks Mummy!
 
 
On Monday I made my usual lunch:
 
 
A handful of rice crackers (these ones are Peckish brand, try them!), a tin of tuna, thirty grams of cheese.  It is a quick and easy but super tasty lunch and I love to eat snacky things because it's like being on holidays.  Kind of a bogan antipasto.  And good news if you're on a diet, because if you buy the light tuna like I do this meal will only have about 1000 kilojoules.
 
 
Speaking of diets, that night Jim and I had dinner at the $3.50 sushi place in Cronulla then went to San Churro in Miranda for dessert because I'd had churros on my mind for days.
 
He had the sundae:
 
 
 
Naturally I had these:
 
 
They were so delicious! I'm pretty sad that adults can't get the kids' churros anymore though, they are a much easier serving size, and cheaper of course, but the best bit is they come with sprinkles!
 
 
Anyway what have you all been doing, anything?
