What a Wonderful Weekend

I know this is called a wonderful weekend but I am sneaking Thursday into this too, cheeky I know.

So Thursday evening I had been invited to a pampered chef party (http://www.pamperedchef.com/), I was a little worried as if you have the 'wrong consultant' or even a bad group of people it can be a bad experience. It was my first ever party and I had a great giggle! The host chose two dishes one being an apple, almond and camembert dish served with raw vegetables and bread sticks to dip in which was amazing, so quick and easy too! The second being a summer fruit trifle with a twist called lime berry mousse trifle (  http://www.pamperedchef.com/recipe_search/recipe.jsp?id=72101) again, this was so good, a little more time consuming but can prep everything before!

Have you ever been to one of these before? What did you think?

After a great evening I headed home and felt rubbish, this I blame the host for! Her house is always spotless, no dust, no mess just a stunning home! So I decided that our house had to be sorted asap!

Friday evening Dan had a gig which I would usually support them and go along but I stayed home and concentrated on the house, this has continued across the weekend.

Saturday morning Dan and I went into town for a iced latte and iced chocolate milkshake then headed off for a family visit during the day then returned for a lovely evening in, just the two of us.

This morning I woke up after Dan returned from walking our beautiful Doberman, and he had kindly gone out and bought the paper for me, I have a slight obsession with the 'YOU' magazine. We then went into town to do some bargin shopping in Wilkinsons for the house and then noticed there was a carboot sale!!
On the way home we ventured to get some further bargins and picked up some great things which we are very happy with (I will post these during the week) once we were home I then sampled our new paint in the spare bedroom, which by the way is the perfect shade of grey!

Dan has been really lovely recently but this weekend has been perfect! Lots of little thoughtful gestures and coming along to the carboot etc, I have always been lucky but realising it more this weekend!

Have you been up to lots of lovely things this weekend?
