Hey beauts :*

Happy belated new year just want to share with you some things I got for Christmas :3. Unfortunately I am suffering severely from the January blues so can't day this will be the most detailed of posts, but might be long since I have to catch up on a bit - and yes I am aware it is nearly the end of January haha. Any way I had a lovely Christmas at my boyfriends mums house. She has a massive, stunning farmhouse surrounded by fields, which was helpful as there were a lot of us round that day, we even had take turns for Christmas dinner 'cause the table wasn't big enough for everyone to eat at one time! I only ended up eating around 7 pm having not eaten all day I was staaarving. Well worth the wait though :)

I also forgot mention she owns about 10 dogs, and one had just given birth to a few pups, but one nearly died and was so small compared to others. She wasn't getting any milk 'cause the other pups so she had to be hand fed. Luckily she's fine now and becoming bigger and healthy. ^_^

She is so cute and tiny right? :3

          As well as what I got up to at Christmas, just want to show you all a few presents I got too :)

So here they are:

Oh and I'm sorry some pictures haven't been rotated.

Every year I get a pair of jarmies, these are the comfiest yet! :p

GIANT PIG SLIPPER

Missguided - Dress/Tunic

  It's beautiful and very flattering on makes my waist looks smaller. I think the only con is that I find I need to pull it down a lot this might be because I've quite big hips, or I'm tall, which I'm not that tall or because the leggings I'm wearing with it but just note it is short, but this may not apply to shorter petite ladies :)

My boyfriend got me this for my watches, since they were just lying about all over the place, quite handy :3

TOPSHOP - Nails in Eclipse

This is a really good nail polish, it takes ages to chip and the colour is stunning. It can change from an olive greeny colour to a blue depending on how the light hits it. It is prominently green as that is the colour seen when the light hits it. That's my opinion any way and I would say a must buy :)

I also got these PS3 games as well as a Nintendo Wii, Wii Sports, Wii fit and a Resident Evil game. Plus I got Sims 3, Katy Perry Sweet Treats and Supernatural which are really good fun playing. So I will be a happy girly for a long time.

Oh, and to those to got snow in their area hope you enjoyed it ^^

Feels like Christmas came late!

<3

Just keep swimming.

Hello :)

Hope you are well lovelies

I'm just having a quiet Sunday so going to do a lil update.

I went to this restaurant with my mum, stepdad and boyfriend on Thursday, my mum insists we eat here on every birthday or similar occassion -.-

 I wore just plain black leggings with a small heeled shoe/boot and my pale pink blouse from H&M, oh and my watch by Ice. I usually wear bigger heels but I am just a tiny bit taller than my boyfriend so I feel like a giant next to him in my high heels :( 

I didn't really want to dress up much anyway, it was a quiet evening so it didn't matter too much. The bag I have is one I use most of the time, unless i have some extra things I need to take which won't fit in, in which case I will use a larger one one. But this is one of my favourites, it's so versatile and works with a lot of my wardrobe, it was from my local market for £10.

 They had this long tank by some of the tables so I was taking some pictures of the fish they had some weird ones in there but they kept hiding.

 How I forgot to take photo's of the best part (FOOD) I do not know, maybe 'cause I was super hungry ^_^

Anyway I had some Jasmine tea after the meal which is so yummy :)

Yesterday I went to help my boyfriend with the Christmas shopping which he had barely started. We managed to get most of it done thankfully. Then we went to the cinema to watch The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey which was really good  and quite funny, definitely worth watching. We then went for something to eat at Pizza hut and he also surprised me with an early present aww :)

I admit I much prefer action games than these horror type games, I just completed Red Dead Redemption which is a very good game and storyline. But he knows I love Silent hill, the movies, but I have only played on one of  the games once and got really freaked out. But that was years ago. So I thought I'd give it a go..

..I managed half an hour, if that.

 I got really scared playing this by myself, I am not usually a wimp when it comes to horror I have seen a lot scarier films but when it comes to playing scary video games it's another story. Yet I am determined I am to complete it, maybe I will listen to some upbeat music whilst playing it haha!

I got my nails done yesterday too. I did want to get something Christmassy like red with ribbons and bows on so they look like presents but I thought it's best to get something wintery instead because it will probably look dumb after Christmas otherwise. So I went a little dark with a jet black and lots of sparkles :)

I had a few silver snowflake stickers put on too, I wish I had white to stand out more but they are still very pretty anyway. What d'you think? ^_^

Ooooo Christmas eve is tomorrow, I'm sososo excited.

I will be posting different things in the new year, not gonna tell, so check back soon :)

Just want to wish you's a Merry Christmas if I don't post tomorrow too. 

So, Merry Christmas girlies, hope you have a lovely one.

Love, Zoë ❤

Leaving you with a catchy classic ;)

Foooood.

Made a big portion of tuna pasta today for some meals this week :)

Making a mess on the cooker here  

The ingredients are pasta, cayenne pepper, paprika, black pepper, vinegar, tuna chunks, onion, garlic and light mayonnaise.

I stupidly forgot to take the after picture when it was done. but basically all I did was boil the pasta.
While the pasta was cooking I finely chopped up 1 clove of garlic, then chopped up 2 slices of onion into small pieces. I drained the juices from the tin of tuna then placed then placed it in a bowl. I mashed up the tuna with a fork to break up the chunks, then added the onion and garlic. I poured about a teaspoon of vinegar in before adding 4 desert spoons of the light mayonnaise. I mixed them all up with the fork then added cayenne pepper, paprika and black pepper. It's up to you if you add these and how much you add, you only need a little bit to add a bit of spice to it. After this you just need to drain the water from the pasta then add to the bowl and mix together I got about 3-4 portions from this. just leave to cool before putting in the fridge. If you want you can also add chopped pepper or sweetcorn. I didn't have any in.

Made this chocolate log with my mum :)

 Well we actually bought 2 chocolate swiss rolls then cut them into shape to form the log. Then made the chocolate butter coating and used a fork to create the bark effect. Added some cute decorations and gold edible balls then sieved the icing sugar on top. What the hell, I don't know what I'm talking about here basically I just stuck the decorations on haha :)

 I made tomato pasta with chick peas - this was on last Friday

For the sauce - onion, garlic, tomato puree, tinned tomatoes, basil, cayenne pepper then blend.

Add red pepper, yellow pepper and chick peas, along with the sauce the pan with the pasta then heat up until hot.
