Lazy Sunday

I gave in and cleaned the kitchen yesterday, although that was all. Instead I spent time online sending e-mails to see about booking things for my wedding to Mr. SilverClouds. I sometimes wonder how anyone ever found out any useful information before the internet. Need to have a look at some wedding venues to go on the shortlist? Search google and wedding directories. Looking for a cheap and inventive wedding photographer? Email the local uni art/media department. Need to know if a particular place will be open the day after the wedding? Look up their website. These things must have been very time-consuming and expensive before.

We visited our friends K and D last night and stopped over. K and I always have a really good chat, and hopefully we will have a really girly day out to give her a makeover sometime soon. She wants to have a bit of a confidence boost, so we will go to the hairdresser and then hit a department store make-up counter, followed by the shops.

This afternoon our windows were cleaned outside, so then I had to do the inside as well. They look great now, and have a few less cobwebs on them. I also bought a couple of plants for our garden, including bergamot mint which smells delicious. I adore plants that have scented leaves, and have pots of rosemary, lavender, blackcurrant sage and lemon verbena already.

Tonight I am working on another square for the patchwork blanket I am knitting. I will leave you with a quick snap of the work in progress left resting on a snoozing Mr. SilverClouds, who graciously helped me tidy and move furniture in the lounge today.
