HAPPY SEPTEMBER

cake
pancakes

paper straws


Hello lovelies hope you're all well and looking forward to the autumn as much as I am. It's already the second of September which means cake this month and an excuse to drink pink lemonade and pastel milkshake through pretty paper straws, eat pancakes for breakfast and sprinkle confetti everywhere.

BACK TO THE FUTURE






Sundays are the only day Matt and I seem to get free anymore so we've been spending them wisely lately, taking trips to our favourite places, thinking about what we'll do in the future, talking about exciting wedding plans, giggling and forever searching for new tearooms and trying out amazing cakes.

Last Sunday we decided to visit Lincoln, where we used to live and realised we do miss it and it's very dear in our hearts. We talked about how lovely it would be to renovate an old house, have breakfast in the garden and start a little family, scooping up our belongings and our baby rabbit to live in a historic city sounds like the absolute dream.

A giant Starbucks and lots of tiny paces up a very steep hill later, we took in the epic grandeur of the cathedral, pointed at cute little houses and oohed and aahhed at all the little trinkets, teas and cakes we found in the tiny treasure troves that Lincoln has. I lit a candle and wrote a prayer for those lovely people we are now without and that we miss with all our hearts, I hope they are somewhere peaceful with endless tea and laughter and cake always. Speaking of cake, we had the most amazing peanut butter and chocolate cake from Bunty's that is perfectly perched on the slope of Steep Hill. It was wonderful!

Afterwards we contemplated ice cream but decided we'd rather have a lovely meal out together so we could talk more about wedding plans and other lovely things but the place we were hoping to dine in was fully booked to the brim, we shall visit again one day. We headed home as the sun was going down, back to our little family life with our bunny we missed so much and had a lovely night in with chinese food and good films.

Hope you had a darling weekend lovelies. What are your favourite places to visit?

LET THEM EAT CAKE



I love spending afternoons laughing and catching up with the lovely ladies in my life, my mum, my auntie and my great grandma. It's a wonderful thing to have to have over 4 generations in a room at the same time. I hope when I'm in my golden years that I can still laugh, play the piano like a pro (she  played effortlessly for me, it was like being at my own gig, amazing!) and paint and find everything hilarious. My mum and auntie are the same and it's wonderful.

Here's to more tea and cake and giggling like teenagers.

MIAOU OR NEVER

Darling Lily has been super kind as she always is and featured my illustrations on her beautiful blog, it's so dreamy it's like being inside a pastel cake on the dressing table of Marie Antoinette.

THEY HAVE A SECRET WORLD IN THE TWILIGHT









This last week my sister has been to stay and so we've been a little bit addicted to top knots and messy waves, tea, endless episodes of the inbetweeners, dreaming of autumn, cherry hair, picking up wooly jumpers, burning pumpkin candles, lots of laughing, the most amazing great expectations (the douglas booth one), pretty cakes and impromptu dancing to Beyonce ♥

CINDERELLA, CASTLES & CAKE ♥ ♥ ♥









images: weheartit

I've currently been obsessing over things I had when I was little and I found this Cinderella jewellery box which is exactly the same as one I had when I was about 5. I'm loving the pen scribbles on it- most of my stuff has felt tip doodles on from when I got creative urges! I had a few of the jewellery boxes bought for me from the Disney Store for birthdays, I remember having a Sleeping Beauty one and then later a purple Meg one. I've been wanting to go back to Disney for a while now but pennies are low and it will be a while yet- still I can plan my next trip whilst drinking tea and eating cake! ♥
