I have three:

A book: ‘The Burning’ by Laura Bates - if you have teens, particularly girls but definitely boys too you should read it (and so should they - my teen dd thought it was amazing, we don’t often agree on books!) ❤️

Babylis big hair - I bought it because it was highly recommended on here years ago. I have a new found love for it since I have a fringe Smile

Audible books - have vastly improved my commute to work

Share what you love, however small (or big)!

The Sewing Bee
Julia Jacklin's new album Crushing.
The Umbrella Academy (currently considering if it's just too tragic to go back to the start and watch the whole season again)
Lidl green olive ciabatta rolls
Tulips and snowdrops and irises in the shops and the garden
Getting the washing out on the line (in between cloudbursts today but worth it for the fresh smell)

My kindle app, I love reading and would be lost without it. I've filled 5 book shelves at home and have another to assemble. Well DH has, because my attempt was horrific!

My mug, it's nothing special, but tea tastes glorious in it

My new puppy, he's just completely batty and so loving.

I bought a pack of those Chilli and Lemon Grills thanks to this thread.

I ate the whole bag to myself on the drive home.

I’m not buying them again Blush

KeptTheBeachesShipwreckFree · 09/03/2019 20:33

shop.londonstereo.com/OWL-B-ENV.html this stereoscopic 3D photo viewer. I downloaded an app on my phone that let's me take 3D photos (2 shots, side-by-side, that it then aligns automatically) and I can look at them through the Owl. It came today and has kept me occupied almost all day! I've taken pictures of my car, my children, my husband, the nearby church, my dining room...
You can also use it to watch 3D videos on YouTube (there are some with Sir David Attenborough) and it's cool!

My kindle- I can take loads of books with me wherever I go and textbooks and the book I’ reading to the 6 yr old.

My dog-she’s our first dog. I didn’t grow up with dogs and neither did my husband. Everyone thought we were mad acquiring a puppy with 3 kids. She’s rising 2 now and makes us laugh every day, draws us together as a family, even the teenager. We all get out so much more and on weekends have whole family lovely walks (which the kids would moan about pre-dog) and when we go on fabulous holidays abroad we aren’t sad when we come home because we’re all dying to see the dog. Walking the dog one on one with the teenager is like a much better version of those long drives in the car where it’s much easier to talk instead of monosyllabic grunts. She actually makes family life more like family life in stories - less x-box more splashing in streams and climbing trees then curling up on the sofa with her when we get home. I can’t wax lyrical enough I love her sooo much!!! Admittedly she wouldn’t be for the immaculate and house-proud (she’s a Labrador) but other than that, she’s perfect!
