Energy


My word for this year is ENERGY!! I need much more of it!! ;)

I have been doing well actually, i have been working out and it has definately given me more energy.

Do you want to see what i have been using??












 
They are fab. The only workout DVD's i have ever stuck too!! There are five 10 minute workouts on each dvd.
Everyone can find 10mins to work out.
I have been doing them about 3 times a week.
Because Amazon are selling them for such low prices i have bought 5 of the dvds - thats 25 different workouts!!! meaning its hard to get bored because your not doing the same routine again and again!!!

Have fun and let me know if you try them out

Perfect day


I had the most lovely day on Friday with my darling hubbie.

It was his gift to me for our 7th Anniversary.

We dropped the boys at school and then headed into London.

We stopped for a quick lunch at Cafte Nero - i love their hot choccie.

My man bought me an Anniversary treat in Hatton Garden and then we went to St Pauls. I haven't been since i was little. It is soooo beautiful. We climbed the hundreds of steps to the very top - oh my goodness, i was so puffed out - thank goodness i have a pacemaker to keep my heart ticking - hee hee.



I love the whispering galleries - very sureal.


After, we headed to the Beautiful Fortnum and Mason. We had a little snack in the beautiful Parlour restaurant. (I actually prefer it to the St James Restaurant and the fountain restaurant which i have also been to)





And bought a couple of foodie treats.






In the evening we headed to SAF. I was so excited to see on the special board that they were serving 'Pear Martinis as seen on Kirstie and Phils Perfect Christmas' - They were so so delicious!!!!!



Mmmmm and delicious chocolate fondue for dessert:


 
It was such a lovely day - thank you my gorgeous man
