A lovely positive little week; these weeks make me smile!
1. I was so happy when these prints arrived! Maisy features in one and the other two are of Downtown Mobile,AL.
2. The cooler weather this week has meant that we have been able to spend much more time on our porch. ๐
3. We have cushions and wall decor! We are collecting vintage licence plates and pennants from the states we have visited; the licence plate collection is better as pennants are hard to find!
4. Maisy has shifted into a perch for watching out of the window now – I really don’t know how she balances there!
5. We went out for lunch and ended up stuffing ourselves to the brim because the portion sizes were huge! Here are our leftovers from gooey fries & chicken sandwiches. ย We did get ‘to go’ boxes though and had the rest for our dinner.
6. And I couldn’t resist a strawberry shortcake dessert…which was yummy but it wasn’t what I expected! I thought shortcake would be similar to shortbread but it was more like a doughnut!
7. Yesterday we finally decided to try a pizza place that has really good reviews. We picked up a cheese pizza for $5 and it was delicious! ๐ Back to healthier eating next week!

I didn’t realize they don’t do strawberry shortcake in the UK! The cake part is either a sponge cake or a sweet biscuit similar to a scone. And you and Ali REALLY need to quit posting all these delicious-looking food pictures; I keep trying to eat more veg, and now all I’m craving is fries. ;P
Haha sorry we don’t help with your cravings! This week has ‘some’ healthier options for you! Haha! Still not sure what I think to shortcake; I did eat it but I think I found it a little strange when I ate the leftovers!
What a nice week. Love your pictures and wall decorations. Big portions on those plates. Maisy steals the show though!
Thank you! Yes I find all meals out have huge portions; almost always enough to bring home for another dinner!
Your week looks about as healthy as mine with what you’ve been eating! The strawberry shortcake looks amazing! Your wall decor looks really good, bet it feels good to put your stamp on those bare walls. ๐
Yes, it’s amazing how homely it feels now ๐ Haha I’m trying to be healthy but EVERYTHING is tempting!
Ooo yum! That is some tasty looking food!!! And maisy is so cute – she looks very comfy on her new perch and must be balanced just right as it looks awkward hehe
I think she has her balance perfected as she’s sat in the same position even more throughout this week too!
What a great way to record your travels to different states! Those pictures are lovely and could not help but peek at the book – what are you reading?
Thanks, our map in the middle is a scratch off state map too ๐ I love it! The book is “A Spot Of Bother” by Mark Haddon – have you read it?
No because I didn’t get through the incident of the dog in the night time, but its on my to read list! would be interesting to hear what you think of it.
Yay, you’ve got something on the walls! What a talking point, too – licence plates and pennants. Such a sweet framed photo of Maisy, she’s such a star:)
Thank you ๐ I think it looks smooch better now – Maisy’s photograph is my fave!
Well done filling the walls – my husband keeps complaining it looks like we’ve only just moved in because we can’t get our act together over putting stuff up. Don’t suppose you got a to go box with that strawberry short cake, so you can pop it in the post?
We moved in here back in April so it has taken us a while too! It’s ‘almost’ finished! Ha!
The license plates and banners are a great touch! Love little Maisy on her perch. A very tasty week you’ve had…..and why is it we never tire of pizza? Or is it just me?
Well, we had a bit of a pizza hiatus but I think that’s because the ones we had from Dominoes weren’t that great. This one from the little local place is far better and has now got us back on the pizza track! ๐
Oh, we have discovered that the little local shops offer a much better pizza, too! We seek them out….not the best idea for one’s waistline, but there it is. ๐
Love the framed pictures, lovely to personalise your space ๐
Thanks ๐
Ooh ooh I’m on your Pinterest!! Thank you ๐ I’m feeling hungry after reading this post!
That’s ok – hopefully you’ll be on every week!
Thanks ๐
