garden party | polaroids

I took my land camera to a garden party. I'm still getting the hang on it (as you can see from some of the dodgy lighting) but I think the double exposures came out real pretty

List : New Year Resolutions

I've got a long list of new year resolutions but by now have read roughly 1 million blog posts of other peoples' and am BORED so here's someone else's list:

Thursday January 1stThese are my New Year’s resolutions:

1. I will help the blind across the road.

1. I will hang my trousers up.

1. I will put the sleeves back on my records.

1. I will not start smoking.

1. I will stop squeezing my spots.

1. I will be kind to the dog.

1. I will help the poor and ignorant.

1. After hearing the disgusting noises from downstairs last night, I have also vowed never to drink alcohol.

My father got the dog drunk on cherry brandy at the party last night. If the RSPCA hear about it he could get done. Eight days have gone by since Christmas Day but my mother still hasn’t worn the green lurex apron I bought her for Christmas! She will get bathcubes next year.

Recognise this extract? If you don't please make your new year's resolution to READ ALL THE ADRIAN MOLE BOOKS. If you already enjoy Adrian then do yourself a favour and follow THIS TWITTER for hilarious extracts from his diaries.

P.S. my very favourite quote is the line "I would sooner wash a corpse" - what a drama queen

HAPPY NEW YEAR

!

I spent mine on a farm with friends and nice strangers and peach schnapps and at midnight we danced to Call Me Maybe so obviously the best NYE of my life. For the trip up to the farm I made a SUPER GIRLY FUN ROADTRIP mix which went down a treat (one girl said she'd pay R180 to listen to me DJ so, yeah) along with album art 

full disclosure: basically every second song features Beyonce

CLICK HERE if you wanna have a listen

p.s. 8tracks wouldn't let me upload more than 2 Destiny's Child songs (I KNOW WTF) so this playlist is missing Survivor and Bills, Bills, Bills :(

For fear of having peppermint crisp tart for the 12th year in a row, I offered to handle Christmas pudding. I'm quiiite a fan of sweet treats so really enjoyed trolling the internet for recipes. Here's what I'd like to make (I find this all very exciting-looking so am hitting caps lock NOW) :

CHOCOLATE PANCAKES WITH STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM INSIDE (YOU CAN'T TELL BUT I BET THERE'S ALSO SOMETHING OUTRAGEOUS LIKE NUTELLA IN THERE TOO)

RASPBERRY SORBET

 CHOCOLATE + LAVENDER TARTS

STRAWBERRY AND CREAM AND PASTRY THING

 SALTED CARAMEL LAVA CAKE (LAVA!)

 HOMEMADE HAZELNUT ICE-CREAM

WAFFLES WITH CREAM AND HONEY AND STRAWBERRIES ON

List: shoes please

This time of year it's hard not to make imaginary Christmas lists. I always get a bit carried away on ModCloth.com...today it was their shoes (and socks - look at those cats!) that got me

…for dancing

…for pretending like you still go to school

…for stamping about town
