Hey everyone … hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend … things around here have been relaxed … and rather wet … the UAE had the worst rain in over two years this weekend … temps dropped to below 25C (77F) and it was the rain was the worst we have seen since we’ve moved here …
It did make it quite refreshing to go outside though … the above was taken from our balcony at about 7am on Friday morning … I had to go bring the laundry in to stop it getting wet … which was a first for me …
Anyways moving on … below are a list of things I’ve been enjoying around the internet for the last few days … its a longer list than usual this week … there has been loads of fun stuff flying around recently … hope you enjoy …

- HOLIDAY STUFFED PUMPKIN … this actually looks and sounds really delicious … and the stop motion video is the brilliant … love the music too …
- STRIPES AND DOTS … Such a cute and easy way to decorate your washer and dryer … especially if they are visible around the house … definitely a great way to dress up some white goods …
