Hey kiddies. I'm back after my absence of a month. I have excuses. First, my keyboard broke (cause of death, a combination of tiredness and a hot cup of tea) So I ordered an external one and then guess what? next my charger breaks! I get luckier everyday.

I've been dealing with a bit of illness and general crappy times throughout the past month so I'll just say that I'm glad it's September! I'm down for GMT and painting my nails glittery black. I am not however, down for my impending 27th birthday (how did that happen? no, really.) I have dreaded 27 since turning 20. Getting older is terrifying. And generally just a bit crap.

because I'm totally not tech savvy I have no idea how to do that clever thing were you can get instagram photos on your blog in a little grid so I will just post a couple at random because guess what? I have no idea what I want to post.

Seriously in love with this bag. £5 ebay bargain on a Sunday afternoon. No idea how that happened. Leather emblazoned Egyptian detail. Swoon. While we're on the subject of this photo, can I just point out that these shoes are the worst, most uncomfortable pieces of shit ever? Topshop, Temptress. Fucking awful waste of £33. I thought they'd be a more durable version of the ever popular "vectra" style but the backs of them are like razorblades. Terrible.

Pocky and Don Draper. I think I already mentioned this little TV show called Mad Men that I'm a little addicted to. Currently suffering from withdrawal symptoms because Netflix only goes up to series 4. I am in desperate need of Series 5 and I'm a little crap at that whole downloading illegally thing. Sigh.

Erdem phone case I won from Miss Penny Dreadful!One of my favourite bloggers. Check her out.

Homemade matcha chiller! Soya milk, half a teaspoon of matcha powder, a little sweetener, throw it in the blender for a few seconds and volia, drink of dreams.

My instagram account is feedingthefire if you are up for more photos of food, impulse purchases and pointless tv caps!
