Late last night I was looking through Mod Cloth and found so many wonderful things so I need to put them all in a post so that they are no longer hundreds of open tabs on my browser! So here they are:
1. Hello Kitty Cutie Wallet – cutest wallet ever!, although knowing me it would get rather dirty in a matter of days in my handbag.
2. Panda-ora’s Bag – such a cute little bag, reminds me of an orange cat one that I own from Fruits Basket! I love the little leaf details on the zip pulls.
3. 23 Flavours of Fab Lunch Box – Dr Pepper – Im always a sucker for tin lunch boxes.
4. Arcade Parade Necklace – very cute retro game necklace, would prefer it in silver though, or colourful.
5. Modzilla Necklace – also comes in black!
6. Aesop’s Fable Necklace in Fox – amazing fox necklace! Reminds me of children’s fairy tales…
7. Camera Obscura Necklace – gonna see if my dad will make me one of these!
8. Time for Romance Necklace – very ornate fob watch, the back is pretty too
9. Friendly Robot Necklace – lovely robot necklace with movable joints!
10. The Poirot Ring – the funniest ring I have seen for a long time!
11. Urban Forest Rings – tiny ornaments on rings are fun, but I fear they will break off quite easily?!
12. Hello Tootsies Socks – love long socks, love Hello Kitty…
13. Winter Semester Socks in Marshmallow – they look so comfy!
14. Anything Bows Headband – I think this would look really cute in my hair.
15. Heartbeats Cuff – chunky cuff for your wrist, very bold design
16. Two Servings a Day Belt – I have been looking for a new belt, and this is so yummy!
17. A-Bot Time Keychain – I think I love robots!
18. Onassis Dress – plain and simple yet very wearable for me. I have an issue with dresses, as I dont own many and never did for many years, so I am forcing them upon myself!
19. Glimmering Girl Dress
20. Frock and Roll Party Queen in Sandy – I seem to love big bows on dresses…
21. The Christine Dress – so cute but out of stock 
22. Auld Lang Syne Dress – big and puffy!
23. The Gilda Dress
24. Picture Day Jumper in Khaki – I would love to wear this with a comfy top on underneath
25. Creme de la Creme Sweater Dress – this is so me! If I had to pick one dress from this line up it would be this one.
26. Gettysburg A-Dress
27. Pump Up the Volume Dress – huge puff ball!
28. No Place Like Gnome Tshirt
29. Ele-fun Tee

32. Kawaii Cuisine Bento Box in Giraffe
33. Coffee Nymphs Mug
34. The Vintage Home book – as I love inspiration
35. Apple of my Eye Mirror – would look great in the bathroom!

Two of the hamsters were fighting today so I had to separate them to individual cages. I got hamster blood on my hands, I was not impressed!
Myself and Ryan are off to Bluewater this evening, mostly to see Rick Stein and hopefully get a book signed in Waterstones, but also to do some shopping! I cant wait, it should be fun. I should actually be getting dressed but I’m eating left over pizza

Myself, Ryan, Lauren and Vawn went to a craft evening at The Deaf Cat cafe, where we had coffee and hot chocolate. We then to join a load of lovely friends at the pub. Its not often that there are so many people that I like to spend time with in one room! Here are a few photos:
L-R: Steve and Ryan, Lauren, Vawn
L-R: Vawn, Lauren, Brodie, Andy, Steve, Ryan

L-R: Ryan and me and Vawn, Lauren and Brodie, Brodie and Andy
L-R: Steve and Ryan being happy
We then walked home, and waited half an hour for food in the local kebab shop, which was horrible food, and which made me get out of bed to forcibly remove the food via regurgitation. Not pleasant… never again.
Today I had a session of Wet, on the Xbox, and I am over half way through now. I am also planning the restart of my driving lessons, which should be next week if possible! I cant actually wait to get my license… one less thing to worry about!

(enjoying my lovely pint of Fruili!)
P.S Check out the new post on Magnolia Fontaine by Vawn, featuring the lovely jewelry that Lauren has created, along with the work she helps create, working for Stephen Webster. These photos include the lovely baby hamsters that they adopted from me I am so happy they have been included! So cute:

After being poorly (I feel a lot better more of the time now) I have had the urge to clean the house meticulously and start creating decorations and presents for Christmas. I am rather excited about Christmas this year; I am never really over-the-top excited about it, but this Christmas will be the first in our new house! I put the tree up last night… a lot of people have said that it is far too early, but my family is coming to celebrate Christmas a week early, so why cant I put the tree up a week early!? It is just inspiration standing in the corner now, I cant wait to start putting presents under it.
Yesterday Ryan came home with a new frying pan, which was on sale in Debenhams:
So this led me on to looking at all the kitchenware that Debenhams sell… There are quite a few things that I love, which I am sure you can get elsewhere too, just they are all bundled together in one shop! Here are my selections:
1. Dark grey Roast ‘n Rack by Maxim – I love making roast dinners so much, but I still dont really have the roasting trays for all the ingredients.
2. Cream plate with glass dome lid – I just love the aesthetic of having this in the kitchen with cakes under it!
3. Teal rectangular stoneware dish by Le Creuset – maybe for pasta bakes
4. Cream stove kettle by Prestige – I adore the lines and the shapes that make up these retro-style kettles. I even love the fact you have to put it on the stove, so amazing! There are some of the same/similar style that are electric, but its not really the same thing is it. We also need an upgrade from the £6 kettle I bought a few years ago from Woolworths haha!
5. Azure cast iron casserole dish By Le Creuset – for casseroles of course. Winter is drawing in and I am always a sucker for homemade comfort food. For some reason all the Le Creuset items I have picked here bar one are in blue; I actually like all and any of the colours in the range that they make.
6. Ken Hom 5 piece Wok set by Tao – because I dont have a wok, and I really feel like trying to make stir fry and chinese style chicken.
7. Teal cast iron 26cm square grillit by Le Creuset – because it would make amazing steaks, and you can pour out the juices from the pan afterwards… mmmmm!
8. Spring form cake pan by Kitchen Craft – because I have none!
9. Volcanic regular cast iron grill by Le Creuset – I believe you can either put this in the oven, or as a hot plate on the stove… I love that idea.
10. 5 piece stainless steel set by Prestige – because all of my pans are leaving black flakes in my pasta yuk! Not necessarily this set, but something similar that wont ruin my food.
11. Blue Icona 4 slice toaster by De Longhi – so yummy looking! And blue again… why!?? We need an upgrade from the £5 toaster from Woolworths I bought 3 years ago…
12. 14cm microwave saucepan – when I saw this I thought of Ryan. He always eats beans, and always cooks them in Tupperware pots without handles or spouts, and it looks like a very awkward process to try not to burn your fingers, so this could be ideal!
13. Assam teapot by Bodum – I am never any good at judging how long to leave teabags to steep in the water before pouring, and it either comes out too weak or too strong. So… if I can see what is going on inside the pot I will be ok! It also has a plunger to stop the process when it is right for you, and you can use teabags or leaves and it works!
14. Cream food mixer by KitchenAid – how gorgeous is this machine! We have one in the kitchen at the bar that I work at, I might see if they will sell it to me as it is not really in use.
.
I am also in the process of designing some quilted Christmas stockings for myself and Ryan, to hang on the wall (where the mantel should be if the house still had one), some knitted presents for my grandparents, maybe some other presents too, and some decorations for the house! I am thinking garlands, and wreaths, and paper chains of course.
Ryan is dying my hair for me tonight, so if I think I look semi-unpoorly afterwards I shall take a photo and paste it to the end of this blog.

P.S I am now down to 4 hamsters… It seems to be a sad time in Hamsterville. I have not changed anything about their living conditions… maybe it is just that time of year Rest in peace crazy dude who bit me really hard…
