The Mock Turtle

That sounds lovely.

I just took F to Starbucks for a Frappuccino and they had the illusive colour change cups there. They are going for a lot of eBay and people are clamouring for them on the US goodies pages I am on. So I had to get them - totally an impulse buy.

I decided to put golf stuff on my birthday list and bought myself an Apple Watch instead. I’ve resisted for a while but the urge became too strong.

You will become obsessed .

I’ve ordered a Baies candle. Yay!

I did purchase a candle from Marmalade of London. I re purchased the Pacific orchid and sea salt one. Totes lush https://www.marmaladeoflondon.com/categ ... d-Sea-Salt

I might get the pear and freesia next.

Freesias are so lovely.

I got another rash guard in the Sweaty Betty sale as I’m not massively sold on the striped one I got last week.
I also had to order another acupressure mat as I had to return the first one because it was the size of a hand towel. It should arrive today so I keep running to the door when I hear a car approaching.

Pip’s your expert as I copied her but I bought the sage Ajna one which comes with a pillow and a cotton bag.

I’m hoping it’ll help with my migraines mainly but also my back and shoulder niggles. It’s arrived earlier so I’ve had a lovely lie on despite Mr O and the boys all badgering me for a go on it.

I really like mine. It’s strangely warming.

Morning!

I shall join in now; I haven’t been spending a lot due to furlough and being cautious, but I’m officially having a weeks holiday next week (so back up to full pay!) and then back to work on 13th, so I’m going to have a splurge.

One thing on the list is a new coffee table. My current one is a mid-century Danish teak surfboard design, but the top is a bit battered. I keep meaning to renovate it but I’ve had it for yonks and it hasn’t happened yet! So I’m looking at replacements.

I’ve also got a Venetian blind for my kitchen window, I didn’t really want one but the sun is so bright in there at times it’ll be good to be able to block it out.

Apart from that - plants! Indoor and outdoor. I bought 6 indoor succulents yesterday, I now have 19 houseplants in my living room alone!

I would love to have plants. My last house had lots of them, but this one has no window sills apart from in the room next to the back door. I’ve tried them in there but they are wasted, as nobody sees them, and I forget to water them.

Can’t you put some on surfaces? Most of my windowsills are full of my glass collections, so I have floor planters and little side tables for plants and dot them around wherever there’s a space...?

It’s more about where they would get the sun. I keep thinking about a terrarium/bottle garden. I might think a bit harder about that.

Good call!

My milk jug has arrived. I probably should have checked the dimensions.

Oh no .

That's very sweet (but very tiny)!

Well, you don't want to drown your tea.

I’m trying to resist ordering some Korean cosmetics, having watched a Milabu on FB this morning. I have no need for them but I just have the urge to buy something today.

Only one visitor at a time. It's a social distancing jug. Actually I don't think you'd fit in enough milk even for two cups of tea.
