The Sunday Edit #2

Picture of The Sunday Edit

Eating// This week I've tried really hard to plan and prep all my meals and I think my favourite dish was one I found on Pinterest. It's a blog post from 2008 by Mel's Kitchen Cafe and it's a takeaway favourite. It's Sweet and Sour Chicken! I absolutely love Chinese food but let's face it, it ain't great for you, hence why I wanted to try one at home. This recipe is so easy to do and the results are so yummy, I would definitely tell you to give it a go.

Reading// Last week I told you that I started The Girl at Rosewood Hall by Annis Bell and while I really want to read this, another book has taken me by the hand and dragged me to their corner. The Good Girl by Mary Kubica is a thriller novel about a young, relatively good girl that leaves a bar with a charming stranger and this decision rocks her life in the worst possible way. If that doesn't leave you wanting more, I don't know what will.

Watching// I'm still off work with my ridiculously dodgy ankle so I've decided to re watch a drama that I've loved for so so long; Gilmore Girls. It's 15 year anniversary of Gilmore Girls airing and I can't get enough of Lorelai and Rory and their amazing small town life. I started watching Gilmore Girls in university and Rory was a spirit animal; she's opinionated, smart and knows exactly what she wants from life. Let's all be Rory Gilmore!

Wearing// I've not really left the house this week which is really sad so I've been chilling in my Ravenclaw trackies and my Moomin pyjamas, both from Primark. I am really exciting on this one this week. One thing I do do when I'm stuck in the house is still pop on some perfume. It makes me feel done up even if I'm only in my Ravenclaw trackies! My signature scent at the moment, and it has been this for around 18 months, is Giorgio Armani Si. With notes of Bergamot, Jasmine and Vanilla, this is not the kind of scent I usually go for, but I am head over heels in love. The only one that might top it is Black Opium. Hint hint.

How has your week been?
