Happy Thankful Thursday! I love this quote and in Happy Thankful Thursday! I love this quote and in the spirit of it I will be unplugging for a few weeks to see if I will work again 🤪. With the patio renovations taking a while I don’t feel I have anything interesting to share at the moment so its the perfect time for a break. Hopefully I will have a lot of progress to share with you when I come back. Hope you’ve all had a wonderful week. This week I am grateful for:- 1. The help we received from family and friends to move the LARGE cabinet out to the patio. 2. Sharing some toasties for lunch with the Lockharts and my BIL.🥪 3. A visit from Emy and Mitch💕💕 4. A great and very helpful chat with @antheasonrosemary🤎🤎 5. A lovely long chat with my bestie🥰 See you in a few weeks 😍😍😍 * * * * * #ajoyfulordinarylife #lovemyhome❤️ #lovemygirl💕 #lovemyhusband❤️ #gratitudepractice #gratefuleveryday🙏 #gratefulthankfulblessed🙏 #familyislove❤️ #lovemylife💕 #thankfulthursdays❤️ #thankfulthursday❤️ #feelingblessed🙏
The thing I love most about cooking when entertain The thing I love most about cooking when entertaining is making a beautiful dessert. One of the easiest to make look great is a trifle (at least until you dig in for the first time then it looks like mush 🤪). Its the layers for me. The one thing I don’t like about trifles is that they are usually very large. This recipe though is a small one perfect for 4-6 people. You can double it of course to make a much bigger one. It also has a delicious cheesecake layer🤤 If you would like the recipe comment TRIFLE and I’ll send it to you. Make sure you’re following me so I can DM you. #dessertsofinstagram #trifle #ajoyfulordinarylife #foodforentertaining #fortheloveoffood #homecooking❤ #homecookedmeals #athomefeast #entertaining #easyrecipesathome❤#foodislife #tastymeals
Happy Thankful Thursday! I’m trying really hard Happy Thankful Thursday! I’m trying really hard to embrace to joy of doing nothing. I’ve always been someone who needed to be “busy” to feel worthy especially when I cut back on full time work, but over the last few years I’ve realised that there is a lot of value in doing nothing. Recharging and time to think clearly have been two of the big benefits for me. Are you good at doing nothing??? This week I am grateful for:- 1. Em’s kitty Artie coming to stay for the weekend. 2. Catching up on some Housewives with Emy when I took Artie home. 3. Stitching with my bestie. 4. Going out with Tony for a yummy dinner and watching a school production of Footloose at the Casino which was really great. 5. Morning tea with a neighbour. I’ve got a quiet day today so will make the most of the nice weather - apparently a lot of rain is coming tomorrow. Not good news for our backyard reno 🤦‍♀ How’s your weekend looking? * * * * #ajoyfulordinarylife #lovemyhome❤️ #lovemygirl💕 #lovemyhusband❤️ #gratitudepractice #gratefuleveryday🙏 #gratefulthankfulblessed🙏 #familyislove❤️ #lovemylife💕 #thankfulthursdays❤️ #thankfulthursday❤️ #feelingblessed🙏
