Good evening all, a new week is nearly upon us, how was your Sunday?
Today started pretty well!
My favourite black jeans were in the wash, so I grabbed a pair of blue jeans that I hadn’t worn before as they were a bit snug.
I pulled them on, and to my surprise, they buttoned up and fit like a glove. I love it when that happens!
Nothing like a sunday to try out different make up.
Today I wore ‘They’re Real!, Double the lip’, lipstick and liner in one from Benefit. I wore the shade ‘hot wire pink’.
I do love a pink lip but this one was a little bright for me. Before I could change my mind, we left the house.
The application was simple and creamy, with a subtle liner combination on the top of the lipstick. My lips stayed soft and I was able to wear this lipstick for a few hours before having to gently reapply.

My partner and I then headed into town to do a bit of shopping.
Once we got home we did the chores and I started dinner. I made us a turkey joint roast dinner, with all of the trimmings, including homemade fluffy Yorkshire pudding and honey glazed carrots.
I then made my take on Apple Betty. I haven’t found a recipe that I find fully satisfying, so I went rogue and decided to make my own. I often find that too much sugar is used and not enough cinnamon. It was damn good if I do say so myself! We normally enjoy this with a dollop of double cream or custard.
I might share the recipe one day.
We watched How to Train your Dragon in preparation for the third installment that we’ll be watching next week.
Well I can’t tell you the last time a children’s film made me cry like that. It was a bit unexpected! I won’t spoil the ending for anyone, but the last 15 minutes, what a ride?!?
I’m going to attempt to get an early night, failing that, read more of my Holly Madison biography.
How do you spend your Sundays? And do you have a set Sunday routine?

I love that lippie color on you, I don’t think it’s too bright at all. The dinner you made sounds absolutely delicious & that dessert looks wonderful. I’ve never had it before! & that’s so cute that How To Train You Dragon made you cry, I’m gonna have to watch it. I love a good children’s film. ❤

Thank you, I’ll have to wear it more often and push my shade boundaries a little. I love cooking for my other half, when I first joined WordPress I did consider solely concentrating on everyday food and desserts… Maybe one day 🙂 oh the film was just lovely! The 1st and second film are brilliant, hopefully I’ll finally get the chance to watch the 3rd soon! X

I’m the same way! I always go towards the same shades with makeup! I think food & desserts could fit into your current blog, too. 🙂 I’ve never seen any of the dragon films but I may have to have a little watch-a-thon!!

Perhaps once a month I’ll have a blog dedicated to just food? 🙂 X

Ooh, invite me over for dinner! Lol
You know, I used to shy away from lip products that I thought were too bright/dark/whatever was out of my comfort zone but I found I get a lot of compliments when I rock them. I think the color looks great!
