Jumble of Stuff

Last week I was pleasantly surprised by a beautiful Valentine's Day gift from my husband. He knows I not only love McQueen, but chartreuse is my favourite colour. Imagine the glee when a chartreuse tri-skull ring was my gift! Perfection! 



Showing off my lovely!
I've been dying for good crepes, somewhere along one of our moves I lost my good pan so haven't had luck making them (and they are so easy to make either sweet or savoury.) He found a local creperie that was casual but oh so delicious! Buckwheat crepes for supper, and my fav sucre, beurre, lemon for dessert. I cleaned each plate which is a first for me as I usually eat loads of small meals. And the dinner crepe was really packed! Definitely have to go back!


Also on Valentine's Day I re-did my hair pink. The pics don't show it too well, but the light parts are light pink. The only thing I dislike about light pink is that it fades so fast. I am quite in love with the darker pink Manic Panic "New Rose", and keep adding a little more each time the spirit moves me because it's so pretty!

 
Valentines Day, hair colour didn't show that well though. Tried to show that I did my nails to match my ring!
 I also tried my hand again at the no-time bread I wrote about last week. Better luck this time, but I still must be doing something wrong as the crust is just too hard. It was perfect for breaking up into the vegetarian vegetable soup I made though!

Lastly, kitteh pics. You buy these kids all kinds of toys and what amuses them most? A box with tissue paper. Kids today!

PS for those interested, the werewolf hat came out looking too wonky, like its ears were the wrong size. So I took them off and have a happily toasty warm hat!
