Brows, Hot Chip and a Quote From Arnie #littleloves

Hello! Another week has gone by quickly and what do you know? Easter is very nearly here! Francis broke up from school yesterday so we are now into holiday mode! I must admit, it is a relief to me to have him on school holiday as it means I don't have to rush in the morning, which has well and truly become a pet peeve (I know, I know, grow up! But I can't ;) ) So here are this week's little loves:

Read
Sorry to be boring...but I was once again caught (when ever I could this week) with my nose in the WordPress for Dummies book. I really like its easy to follow chapters and tips but I don't think I'm anywhere near showcasing my blog as self hosted yet! Fingers crossed I actually get a bit more time this week to put what I'm reading into practice!


Watched
I got back into Pretty Little Liars this week. I have had to do a bit of a rewind. I think I was up to the end of season 4 but couldn't really remember what happened, so I have started watching season 4 again on Netflix. I LOVE this show. When my sister first recommended it to me I thought it might be a bit young but any show that can hold you in total suspense for 4 seasons is a winner in my book!


Wore
I went to get my eyebrows done this week at my favourite nearby spa and they finished the look by using some Jane Iredale eyebrow powder! I loved the look, especially since I have sparse light brows and so... I treated myself to the kit! Can't wait to try it out on my own. I hope I don't end up looking like Groucho Marx!

Heard
The new Hot Chip single. I love Hot Chip. When we lived in London we saw them at the Bar Fly by accident as they were supporting another band we were there to see. We loved them instantly and would often go to their gigs. I even went to a very small gig of there's for my 25th birthday!! Oh and we saw them when we lived in Dallas, TX too...OK, so I guess you could say we are fans! :)


Made
Unfortunately, I don't think I made anything worth noting here this week. I have just been getting things ready for Easter and trying to generally get things organised in the house before the Easter break. I haven't even done any baking as the boys did a lot of it in school/nursery and they have already had way too much chocolate (and that's a lot if a chocoholic mum can say so!).

Easter Bunny!

And Lastly...
I am hoping to really get my blog sorted out this coming week. I am doing it all on my own and can't imagine the chaos of things that undoubtedly will go wrong when it does go live. I am finding it really tricky to blog here whilst working on the new site, so I may not be 100% here this week. But in the infamous words of Arnold Schwarzenegger 'I'll be back!'

    How exciting about self-hosted! I wouldn't even know where to start - I really admire you for doing it all yourself! My friend Sian does tech support, so she's someone to keep in mind if you run into difficulties. I'm sure you'll be great though! Happy Easter lovely xx

      Ah, it is a little scary! If I had known someone to help I would have definitely gone that route but to be honest I'd probably be just as confused ;-) I may indeed contact Sian, if it all goes wrong...thanks for the recommendation! Good luck with your blog and Happy Easter! xx

      Thanks Alice! I may do a post on it at a later date, but I'll see how it all goes. I may have to call in some experts ;-) Happy Easter! xx

    Love Hot Chip, I've not heard the new single yet though I'll be heading over to youtube for a listen that's for sure. I like the look of that eyebrow palette, my Benefit one is running out so I'll be taking a look at that one. Have a lovely Easter weekend xx

      Oooh, definitely have a listen, the single is good! I love Benefit makeup too, but went with Jane Iredale this time as that is what they used on me at my local salon. I am definitely a fan of it though. Have a great Easter and thanks again for hosting! xx

    Ah I remember Hot Chip! I haven't heard their new song, I didn't know they were still around. I used to love one of their songs, can't remember what it's called, need to find out! x

      Yeah, I think they were taking a break or working on solo stuff for awhile. It's nice to hear them again! Hope you have a nice week! xx #littleloves

    I really need to get myself Wordpress for Dummies, I'm still so bad at anything techie and I need to get a bit more knowledgeable. Pretty Little Liars is on my watch list once I've finished Orange Is The New Black and you've made me really excited to start it.
    Hope the self-hosting move goes okay xx
