Last week was pretty fantastic! Nothing specifically exciting happened but lots of little things spiked my week to make it EPIC!
Waking up to beautiful sunrises always make me spring out of bed. It’s amazing what those little rays of sunshine can do to a girl. They make feel refreshed, joyful and ready for the day ahead.
Nothing beats a runny egg yolk! I used to be scared of them as they were always criticised for being the most calorific part of the egg. Now you can’t keep me away from that yummy creamy goodness. FYI, asparagus spears make great egg yolk dipping apparatus.
I got to try a new Nakd bar last week. This banana crunch bar is a twist on the banana bread bar. It was pretty darn tasty!
Food deliveries always make me smile; having food delivered to your doorstep, what’s not to love? My Nutribox delivery is just full of lots of raw goodies. I never know what’s going to be delivered so it’s always a nice surprise opening up the package.
I needed a new case for my IPhone 5 and spotted this one the other week and fell in love. After looking for a while it was refreshing to find something really unique and a little bit original. This case is so me, the pretty vintage feel and embellishments are fab!
On my health food shop last week I picked up this little pot of coconut ice cream to try. Obviously I was in heaven when I dug into this and was tempted to lick the tub clean.
Other things such as cuddles from my nieces and baby nephew, visiting family, a family BBQ, looking back at our wedding cards and notes, fresh tulips and reading a new book made last week epic.
Sometimes there are times when we feel a bit crappy and down in the dumps. In times like these I like to remember the things that make me happy. I think that it’s nice to be reminded of the things that make me smile no matter how big or small they may be.
What little things made last week epic for you?
Do you have a list of things that you love that makes you smile?






All gorgeous pick me ups! I love little things that improve the day, receiving something lovely in the post always helps, or trying a new food or just seeing bright sunshine. Fresh flowers are always a winner too! I can completely understand the asparagus and eggs combo 🙂
They are like the perfect match. Like a healthy version of egg and bread soilders.
Might have to try a Nutribox…never heard of them before! Got to keep the yolk runny in the egg, it’s the best bit!: )
I love the yolk too, so tasty!
That ice cream looks lovely 🙂 And I agree seeing a sunrise is the perfect pick me up
That ice cream is divine!
I’m jealous we still don’t have Nakd bars here in the states! Larabars are similar I guess, but not the same!
They are very similar actually, but Larabars have more exciting flavours.
Oh I’m so glad you had a great week 🙂 I love little things like hugs from the boyfriend, a good cup of coffee, and seeing the sea when I visit Brighton. It’s the little pleasures in life 🙂
I totally agree!
I couldn’t agree more about the impact that sunshine has on my mood. No matter how down I’m feeling, a nice sunny day will always cheer me up a little, and so will chocolate. I know it’s not exactly the best way to deal with things, but there are those funks that only chocolate can cure.
It is amazing the difference that eh sunshine makes to everybodies mood. I totally know what you mean regarding the chocolate thing.
It’s definitely the little things that make your life better – when the sun has been shining this week, my mood has been SO much better =) I also love the new Nakd crunch bars – have you tried the strawberry one? It’s DIVINE! I hope you have another fab week! x
No, but I think that I may have it in my snack draw at work. It sounds lovely. Hope you have a great week too.
Not yet, but I think that I may have one in my snack draw at work…sounds fab!
oOooOo I don’t own an iphone but that case is so cute, and it IS SO YOU! Hehe. I think that I’m usually very delighted with the small things too–like when the birds by our house chirp nonstop, I’m reminded how precious and content they are….and how I should be content too, because that makes God smile! 😀
You are so right, it’s the little things that count and we so easily forget this.
You are so right. We always easily forget about the little things.
A good runny yolk always puts a smile on my face 🙂 hehe.
That new nakd bar looks delicious; I loved the banana bread one so am sure will love that one too – havent seen it in stores near me yet though. I’ll have to keep a look out for it!
It’s definitely the little things that make you happy; I enjoyed a lovely stroll in the sunshine at the weekend and then a day relaxing watching movies yesterday snuggled up in my dressing gown 🙂
Go to love those runny yolks! Sounds like you had a perfect weekend.
It sounds like you had a wonderful weekend!
I love the new Nakd bars, so good! The sunshine at the weekend definitely put a smile on my face – shame that the weather is back to “normal” today! x
I know, but it’s meant to be sunny again at the weeken again.
I know, but it’s meant to be sunny again at the weekend.
I’m not sure about the new nakd/trek bars, prefer the original ones. I had a great run in the sun on the weekend and trip to the farmers market which always makes me feel good.
I love a good farmers market- a great way to soend the weekend.
I love pottering around farmers markets, a great way to spend the weekend!
That coconut ice cream looks yummy! I love the phone case x
