I have seen a lovely scarf on a recent trip to Edinburgh. I don’t normally care much for presents but I have requested this from dh. It’s a bit more than I would spend but we’re sensible with money and I would treasure it.

We don’t normally do a tonne of gifts at Christmas as I honestly prefer to spend the money on nice food. But I would be thrilled with the scarf and maybe a bottle of perfume.

What would you like?

My cat broke a bowl that late grandmother made and I properly cried. My lovely husband is going to get a Kintsugi repair done for me ❤️

I tried kintsugi on a mug, got myself into a complete mess!! Next time I try it I’m boing to glue the pieces together without the hold and then add the gold after so it looks neat!

For my husband to stop bloody snoring long enough for me to go to sleep!

Teaspoons. Not sure if it’s the
ADHD, or the dyspraxia in our house but the teaspoons are often thrown away by mistake

Definitely been thinking of wanting a kindle. I’ve only ever had physical books - but I’ve got arthritis so an e reader seems like the more practical option. I think I’d read more too as it’s just easy to grab and go.

@seasid do it.

I resisted and eventually got a Kindle as a present. I cannot remember when I last read a physical book. I have a lot of joint pain and it is so much lighter. Plus, I always have a book with me, either my Kindle or the app on my phone. I love it.

A big lie in and a mug of tea in bed. Bonus if Benicio Del Toro brings it 😀
