New blog post! The latest mystery box of clothes I tried out was @trunkclub by @nordstrom - I was happily surprised by the choices sent and kept a few items! What clothing style services should I check out next?

Over on the blog today - I wrote about my 2022 Universal Standard mystery boxes. A few things to keep, but a few disappointments - there's a link in my bio if you fancy a read!

When your @yeti's match your @rothys' (total coincidence but I do actually have Yeti cups that match all of my Rothys shoes 🙈)

Cheers to the weekend!

Not sure why this never got posted, but a while ago, we made some birthday cake martinis for a friend's birthday (duh) and I thought I'd share the recipe because it was pretty easy and very delicious!

🍸🍰🍸🍰🍸🍰🍸🍰🍸🍰🍸🍰

2 parts vodka (you could do vanilla, but we did plain)
3 parts coconut cream
1 part white chocolate liqueur (we found white chocolate Godiva at Total Wine)
1 part Amaretto

Add all the ingredients to a shaker filled with ice, shake it up and serve in glasses rimmed with sprinkles (dip the rim in honey then in sprinkles) and add some squirty cream on top with extra sprinkles for something a little more special!
Drink it quick because the colours from the sprinkles will run!

It's been a while...

Last week, Alex booked us in for our first date night in at least 2 and a bit years at Altura on Broadway - they do a tasting menu and each plate is as beautiful as the next. It's definitely a bit of a splurge, but since we've missed out on celebrating at least 4 birthdays, 2 job changes and 3 anniversaries since our last visit, it seemed like the right way to spend the day after Valentines!

It's all so delicious, from the beginning to the affogato ending with the most delicious hot chocolate ever (honestly, I'd go over to Seattle just for this). If you're looking for a delicious special meal, you must check Altura out.

This week we were transported to a magical world under a big top ... in Marymoor Park. Surprisingly after living here for a few years (and living so close to Marymoor now!), I had never actually been to any other part of the park besides the dog park, but I've been watching the big top going up over the last week or so.

To carry on with the theme of new things, I had never actually been to a @cirquedusoleil show before, so when I received the invite, I wasn't sure what to expect but I was blown away by the show! I shared some more bits in my stories (although I didn’t want to share too much so you don’t get spoilt!) so you can check those out in my highlights including how to get tickets!

2021 top 9? I didn’t even post 9 photos last yea

2021 top 9? I didn’t even post 9 photos last year, I just screenshotted my feed. Part of the reason for this was that I didn’t take many photos of stuff that wasn’t the dogs, so one of my 2022 resolutions is to take more photos. If you’re interested, I just posted my annual resolutions list over on my blog - link in bio

“You know what I realised in the last year and a half? Doesn’t matter where you are, who you’re with, every once in a while, you need to open up a bottle of white whine, put on your sweatpants and dance to the mother fucking Bee Gees, that’s what I know”
