This was with out a doubt the best sunset I have seen in a very long time 🌞 My mind can not comprehend the beauty of this world right now 🌍 https://www.instagram.com/p/B3T7caVJsQrwqBoWiO4uRBmdKQSjohwygtVuhY0/?igshid=1gmd7374ydng3

Merry Monday morning! I spent yesterday in book shops and book buying. It was wet and gloomy outside and I couldn’t think of a better place to spend a cold, rainy day than surrounded by hundreds of books and my fellow book loving people. There is some sort of magic connected to bookshops. I then went home, climbed into bed with a hot chocolate and continued reading as the rain fell against the windows. Of course my window leaks so the rain also made it’s way into my room. I love a good rainy day, as long as they confine them selves mostly to winter. Today the most important thing for me to do is vacuum the floor because I keep forgetting to do it and it’s looking disgusting. Oops 🙊 I also have many other things I need to get done but I’m already procrastinating and not being very productive. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz6wjUDJfWImplrGkcQQE9OUu4qt7hAgRHa4Ug0/?igshid=pk7sqoke75cd

I love books! If there is one thing I make time for, it’s reading. I always take a book with my to work to read on my breaks, and read before bed to help me sleep. Sometimes I read before getting out of bed in the morning, counting down the minutes until I have to get up for work. I read 89 books last year and I still don’t think that’s very many. My favourite genre is fantasy, but I love a bit of everything. Books give me a way to escape, when I’m reading I’m focussed on nothing else but the books in front of me - which is much needed for a girl whose mind never stops thinking. I cry more over books than anything else, and sometimes I wonder how it’s possible to fall so in love with a fictional character. There are a number of special characters from books that have a warm, permanent place in my heart. Do you like to read? https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs7fGOyAtWz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=w1uah3th3j2f

Chocolate smoothies with a drizzle of tahini are a favourite of mine. With the warm weather comes many smoothie and nice cream bowls, and I’m not complaining. I have perfected my homemade granola and it is the star of every smoothie bowl, no smoothie is complete with out crunchy granola to top it off. I am seriously loving these summer weekends. They give me all the time in the world to sit down in the warm sun or cool shade of a tree and read. It also means wandering the busy pathways of the markets in flowing, floral dresses and crisp linen pants, book buying, coffee drinking and people watching. https://www.instagram.com/p/BsjZKOiAeav/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c6qkxrdvl05a

A super simple but delicious lunch from probably last Tuesday - toast, avo, nooch and smoked tofu. Most of my food is usually pretty simple because I’m just a lazy cook who doesn’t want to spend too long in the kitchen. I’m currently snacking on everything from the fridge and pantry and reading (although I am listening to music while writing this) and enjoying the good weather. The weather has been rather average on my days off recently so I am enjoying the warmth and sunshine. https://www.instagram.com/p/BshbPZBArkY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1l1pcpi02b75e

Tuesday’s are my favourite because I don’t work on Tuesday’s. I’ve found it really hard this week. I’m going over everything that’s gone wrong, rude people who’ve ruined my day, all the mistakes I’ve made, the things I should have done differently, the stresses and anxiety I’ve felt, and they keep running circles in my head. When I make a mistake, big or small, I can’t stop thinking about it. There’s no way to switch the thought off. It follows me all day and no matter how good the rest of my day might be, I can’t push those thoughts away. I over-think things. That’s just who I am. It does have its positives too, because it means I have a very creative and busy mind that’s always working and moving. With all that aside, this plate of waffles it from Wednesday, the last time I had an opportunity to take a photo. The waffles were spectacular and the first time I’ve made waffles in months. I’m looking forward to a work free day of organising my messy life and reading in the sun. I’m really enjoying the book I’m reading at the moment and I’m having a hard time putting it down. Books are the perfect escape for me, and probably the only time my mind is still and focussed on only the words and story I’m reading. https://www.instagram.com/p/BsWO-cyAoDH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pf49gjpqj8gt

Pizza is what you need after a stressful day at work. Yesterday was not a good day. Neither was Friday. But on Saturday evening after work I got to see my best friend for the first time in 9 months since she moved to the USA with her American husband and it was the best moment ever. I was so overwhelmed with happiness of see her on top of the stress and anxiety of the last two days that I burst into tears the moment I hugged her. Then we got vegan pizzas and garlic bread and went to a park and ate and chatted and it was just so good to see her again. The pizza was good too 🍕🍕🍕 https://www.instagram.com/p/BsSAFcwgCV6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19vusmzywrlkj
