Here's to a Relaxing Weekend







The early mornings are noticeably chillier and I can almost smell autumn in the air. It's sad to say goodbye to summer but September brings a different kind of fun, like shopping for a winter coat and adding new layers. Tomorrow, I'm looking forward to a lazy lie in followed by an afternoon snuggled under a blanket with a cup of coffee and a new book. I'm sure the most taxing part of my day will be a stroll around the block to photograph the leaves that have already turned brown. Have a happy weekend guys!

Oh, and some blog news... During October all the graphic elements (headers, navigation bar, etc.) here will be professionally designed. That's something I've never had done before and I'm super excited to pretty things up. It's funny the journey you take as a blogger - I haven't been around long (just over a year) and am still learning the ropes, finding out what works and what really doesn't (I've made mistakes a-plenty) but it's the little milestones like a site redesign that keep things interesting!

  5. I could just get in that comfy bed! The pics on your blog always make me feel happy. Very much looking forward to your "Makeover".
    As for the pop up ad...can't say it bothered me that much. I even noted that there's a new "Johnny English" film out! haha! Advertising is everywhere. It keeps my husband in a job. :) xx

  7. I adore autumn for all these things. I love the holidays included like halloween and bonfire night, two of my favourite nights of the year. I love late night cinema trips and walking home in the cold crisp air. I love having a hot water bottle with me and snuggling up in bed watching a film with two furry lovelies licking my hand. I do love autumn xxx

  13. This sounds like the perfect way to spend an autumnal day. I love snuggling down with a good book and a hot drink. I'm looking forward to seeing the new blog change, I've always liked how your blog has looked (personal, different yet pretty and functional). I'm really intrigued by the change though!

  14. It's so much more acceptable to spend your weekends being lazy indoors in the winter isn't it?! less pressure to be out and about and more about chilling out and properly relaxing...i love both but feel ready for the winter now! look forward to seeing the redesign
