Little Loves #7

Read

I finished my book! I can highly recommend Close to Home especially if you are into your detective stories.

I almost missed the twist at the end....always read the epilogue! I almost didn't and therefore would have missed what happened! I really enjoyed it and will definitely buy Cara Hunters second DI Fawley book when it is out in July.
I followed the crowd and bought Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine. I did um and ah about it as I do tend to prefer a detective story but after Close to Home I thought of maybe going for something a little different.
In all honesty......I'm not sure how I am going to do with it but worth a try, especially given all the good reviews about it.

Watched

Half term and showing the boys that we can get Youtube on our tv has meant I have discovered DanDTM. They watch him non-stop!

Heard

I've been listening to the Blood Brothers soundtrack a lot again recently. We had some really sad news on Sunday and for some reason this song has become even more relevant for me at the moment. It was Lyn Paul who I have seen sing this song at the theatre the previous two times I have gone and she will be there again when I go and watch in May. Her voice is just stunning. This is the only version I can find on Youtube but you get the idea. Even through watching this you can see how amazing she is with the emotion. Look how quickly she switches it on. Amazing, talented, beautiful woman.

Made

For our Valentines meal this week we had Oysters from our local Fishmongers, as well as Jumbo King Prawns and Scallops, then had Chicken breast wrapped in Italian Ham with mash and a stuffed mushroom. 

Wore

I haven't actually worn these yet but I did buy them this week from TKMaxx. I am into Crystals and their healing properties and absolutely fell in love with these. Harry was actually the one who found them and I was super impressed that he was aware of my love for Crystals, as it's not something I really try to push them into.

And lastly...

On Sunday we went to Norfolk to see my boyfriend for a bit. He was on call with work so we were limited with where we could go but we went to a lovely garden centre and then went out for dinner. I got some devastating news about a family member whilst there and couldn't have been any more grateful to have my boyfriend with me who, without even trying, managed to keep me strong and we ended up having a lovely afternoon and evening.
