  • Outfit of the week

    Has to be this one. Just because it is so wacky. I felt like going a bit mad at my dinner party and I never get a chance to wear this anywhere without being stared at, and not in a good way. I do love it even though it is a lot.

  • What Tee did in June

    Saw friends for coffee and lunches and dinners twice.

    Got my monthly B12 shot so I don’t die.

    Had a man twist me like a fucking pretzel – an osteopath as my back was out of alignment – I hate getting old.

    Opticians for a test to confirm my eyes have deteriorated – I hate getting old.

    Got some blonde put in to cover those pesky angel hairs.

    Had my nails painted a pretty grey and silver.

    Played Mah Jong – what? it is fun even if it does sound like something old women do.

    Went line dancing. I love it, it gets me moving and laughing.

    Hosted a dinner party. Just eight of us, nice food, good wine. Did salmon blinis to hand around with pre–dinner drinks then slow roasted lamb with all the roastie trimmings as well as a huge bowl of mediterranean couscous with roasted dates. For puds I did chocolate mousse, a blackcurrant cheesecake and my personal favourite mini meringues filled with mango and whipped cream and drizzled with a syrup I made with rose petal jam, lime and mint. I also did a cheeseboard.

    Some house organisation. Would honestly appreciate recommendations for bra storage. I have googled and I have tried laying them flat, putting them in small ziplock bags with their matching knickers, hanging them separately. It all takes up a load of room and looks shit. I now have them folded, which I know you shouldn’t do.

    Had a date night with the husband. a few drinks and a fabulous meal of smoked salmon and cubed fried goat cheese then the best salt crusted sea bass I have ever tasted. restaurant was almacen de sal in playa blanca, Lanzarote.

    Must try harder in July to have more fun.
