– Favourites –

• I received another cute package in the post from my lovely friend Lauren over at Readers Enjoy Authors’ Dreams – It contained the cutest friendship bracelet, tea, and some Sugar and Sloth Merch 😍
• Snow – This month we had a week of snow blizzards and I absolutely loved it! Where I live we do not get snow very often so I was beyond excited that we finally got some.
• I treated myself to a new book I’ve been wanting for a while now – There’s No Such Thing As An Easy Job by Kikuko Tsumura.
• The return of sunny days, blue skies, open windows and the birds chirping – Its the small things that make me the happiest.
