I have always been a lover of the small pleasure. That good cup of coffee, a perfect McGriddle, a good pen. Perhaps it is because I am student without deep pockets or maybe I have discovered the secret to true happiness. This blog is a dedication to my love of the small pleasures that help to get me through this life. Enjoy.
Matthew and I spent a nice Saturday wandering down Portobello Road looking at antiques and other tat. We got a good gift for his mum and went for a nice pint at the Fat Badger. What could be better, the sun was out and we were feeling fine.
I passed this little sweetie and thought that my life wouldn't be complete without a photo.
I have always heard that you appreciate things more when you have to work hard to earn them. Unfortunately that's true. I recently started work as a part time nanny earning the British pound. I was so overjoyed when I received my first envelope full of cash. I could actually go shopping and things wouldn't cost me double. I have only had two pairs of shoes since I've been over here and I was ready for a new pair. A pair of shoes with a little flair. My Pumas had fared me well, but sometimes looked a bit out of place where I was required to dress up.
I went to Top Shop and bought my first pair and let me tell you I was over the moon with joy.
