My week in instagram ...


I want to start a new weekly post of things that I get up to during the week. I don't suppose you want to continuously hear about weddings, weddings, and even more wedding stuff if you are single or even already married ! I mean how boring is that I am sure most of you would agree ! 


I do like to do other things like decorating, getting crafty, baking and styling parties (that you already know !), oh and health is another hobby of mine. I have been known to be a bit of a health nut in the past lol but I can assure you that although I am still pretty healthy my weird eating habits have somewhat balanced out and am back to being considered fairly normal again ! At least I hope so ??? lol ...


So what have I been up to this week ?

First things first I have to warn you that although I am 30 I am still a big kid at heart so when the rain appeared on tuesday, wednesday, thursday and yes friday what better things did I have to do other than jump in puddles and splish splash around like some mad old hatter, urm nada ... nothing ! Yes I love it and who wouldn't in these delightful welly boots?! I heart Cath Kidston so much she rocks big time.

Now while I love the rain when I am at home, I don't like it when I am at work looking after children it depresses me, literally. The children are so friggin exhausting when they can't be let loose outside. I go stir crazy and the kids are about to throttle each other. So I have had to rack my brains this week of things to do and my old favourite cropped up ... baking ! Oh and it must MUST be a recipe from the Primrose Bakery recipe book ... every page is just so pretty to look at it puts a great smile on my face and the smell of biscuits and cupcakes baking in the oven .... delish yum yum the house always smells so divine afterwards ! I could bake all day if I was allowed to .... is anyone willing to come round to my flat to help me eat it all ?! I promise if you did visit me there would be lots of fresh food mostly Mediterranean meats, cheeses and bruschettas to help keep the savoury tooth also satisfied. I love fresh food and yes the less cooked the better for me anyhow. This bruschetta I made last Sunday was just to die for not sure my fiance though appreciated the garlicky smell afterwards oops !   

The other thing that I have a weakness for are sweets and when I discovered the cutest of little tea rooms in Crouch End this week I just could not believe my luck, there were adorable tea cups and saucers, beautiful illustrations created by artists from the local community and sweets .... yes sweets HEAVEN ! I must state though I behaved myself and kept my distance choosing a healthy tea and a not so heatlhy pain au chocolat ... satisfied with that I made a quick dash for the door with a screeching toodler in tow demanding I 'buy the sweeties, buy the sweeties Chrissi' was like a bloody evil voice in the head ... please Catherine they are not at all good for you they rot the teeth and send you a little bonkers (hope you are listening Chrissi !).

And there you have it my week ! Hope you like the pictures my instagram photos can be viewed here christianaholt. Enjoy ...

My Instagram


So behind all this..

Why is it that everyone appears to be ahead of me in this game ! I feel like some Old Age Pensioner trying to suss out all these new gadgets it's driving me crazy ! OK well I discovered Instagram the other day thanks to a few of my amazing friends. It seems to be the smallest of beautiful things that can make me happy. I am hoping in the long run I will have a huge selection of adorable photos but for now here are just a few that I have already taken.
