Keep it clean all of you who are now letting your mind wander to weekends away with your favourite celeb!
Today I’m asking what you would say is the thing that is your indulgence, your naughty pleasure or your treat. The obvious answer for most of us would be time with our families, date night with the partner etc but I’m thinking something that’s just for you.
I don’t drink, I don’t smoke (10 years off the cigs in November) and I have something of a home bod however there are still plenty of things I can (and do) enjoy and five of these are listed below.
- Walking
Boring I know but sometimes I just want to grab my boots, camera (phone) and set off out for a walk, taking pictures or just enjoying the fresh air. Sometimes I go alone, sometimes we walk as a family. Fortunately we live in a gorgeous area in North Yorkshire on the edge of the N Yorks Moors so have plenty of fabulous walks around us to enjoy.
- Reading
There’s nothing better at the end of a hard day after the kids have gone to bed than getting into my baggies, grabbing a blanket and the sofa (or snuggling down into freshly washed bed sheets) and getting engrossed into a good book. I’ve read some corkers recently, one being the Photographer’s Wife by Nick Alexander and Daughter by Jane Shemilt. Do comment below if you have any recommendations!
- Cookery
I’m very fond of cookery and love my kitchen. I like challenging myself to create new and inventive recipes and at the moment have an on-going love affair with my vegetable spiralizer (I will blog more about this at some point!).
- Gaming
I live in Thirsk which has its own very popular racecourse (horse racing) and yet I’ve never actually been to the races! I’m more of a sit at home in your PJs (there’s a common theme here) and enjoy a flutter kinda gal. I’m not a die-hard gambling expert or anything however do enjoy the odd game here and there on sites such as Euro Palace and if I win some, all the better (and all the more to spend on my other indulgences). I used to enjoy the National Lottery and some of their games however gave that up when they put all of the prices up – tsk!
- Pinterest
I am very much a Pinterest tart and can happily send relaxed hours pinning and viewing my own and other users’ boards. My main interests are anything interior design / homes related, vintage stuff, amusing things and basically anything that comes under the label “pretty”. You can find my boards here (do share yours!).
These are probably my five main pleasures or indulgences at the moment, what are yours?
