let's go dotty

As a present for my friend who bought a house with her husband a few months back I have made the dotty cushion below.

Again, it may not be the perfect finish but it's the thought that counts. =)

My day off (Tuesday) started really early at 9am.. not through choice but my body and warm sunshine. I headed into town to grab a few things as I didn't want to spend a whole afternoon in town not knowing where or what to do.

First stop was the bank and then over to Boots to hand back an umbrella to a customer who left it at the restaurant the night before. The Body Shop was on the cards until I walked past and seen it closed for a refurbishment... =( 

John Lewis seems to be my favourite place to get all my little bits and bobs for my crafty stuff at the minute. They may not stock on a wide range of wool but their whole Rowan collection is enough for me to look at. After a quick browse on their wool with no intention of buying any since money is tight at the minute I just ended up getting the zip I required to finish off the cushion above.

Next stop whilst on my way to Yorokobi for lunch was Primark in getting a new shower curtain... Although I've been on the hunt for something nice for going to London next week I couldn't find anything in the sales or Primark. Don't you hate the feeling of looking through your wardrobe in hope to find something nice and you don't? Then you say to yourself 'I don't have any clothes.' I guess thats why girls seem to have a lot of clothes in their wardrobes and drawers since we don't really throw much out.

Anyways, I just got on with what I was there for - shower curtain. They have shifted things about and I had to walk around all 3 floors until I found them upstairs with all the PJ's. I guess it's good to have burned off a few calories before indulging on some yummy food.

Lunch at Yorokobi was a breeze. I think that is the only restaurant that I can go to by myself without feeling wierd or pitiful for myself. 

Vegetarian Jabchae

California Hand Roll with Tobiko

Soft shell crab Maki

All of that went into my tummy. =)

That is all for my day off as the rest was spent at home watching Glee and The Vampire Diaries.
