I don’t have any outfit posts from this weekend because my camera battery died
But on Sunday the boy and I went to a couple of local carboot sales, and by then I had managed to remember to put it on charge.
The best thing I bought were these old glasses with swans on the front, I love them! Not a full set, I have like 3 sherry glasses, 2 whisky glasses and 1 of the larger glasses (what is that one called?). Not bad for £1 though.


I picked up this chunky gold studded ring for £1.

These Primark ballet flats were 50p.

This bag was £1, but I realised when I got it home that it stinks of smoke! So I’ll be Febrezeing it like mad the next few days.

A cute butterfly dish for 50p.

I also bought a stack of books, a sequin scarf that I can’t find now, a really old pocket dictionary and National Treasure on DVD.
And not from the carboot, I bought this sequin top from eBay a couple of weeks ago. I love it, but it’s very long, and a little big on me.

It was also our 6 month anniversary yesterday, so I made spaghetti bolognese and we drank Amaretto and Lemonade (as suggested by Guiwenneth) from my new glasses.

Ah, those glasses are really cute! Love them. Was the amaretto nice with lemonade? I must confess, it’s not one I’m aware of!! I drink it with coke, or as a cooler- Dissaronno, Vodka, cranberry juice, orange juice. Oh. Yum.

Ah I thought you’d said Lemonade! It’s proper nice, a good summer drink. I’ll have to try it with coke. I love it in hot chocolate too!

Oh I bet that’s good! Coffee is also good. I think I might make one later!!
