As I walked up the path to my building on Friday I saw a courier van parked by the front entrance, and up the three flights of stairs The Boy was signing for a parcel. “It’s for you” he said from abive. A delivery for a girl is always a nice thing, and it was a lovely suprise for a week which has been full of long hours and late nights.
Nia had kindly packaged up a trio of altoids flavours; ginger, peppermint and cinnamon, two aprons from Anthropologie which I’ve fondly named flora and fauna respectively and a newspaper cut out from the Sunday Styles from a few months ago which had a mugshot of yours truly.
I have already popped open the cinnamon altoids, which are delicious. I took Nia’s advice and popped two in a cup of strong black tea and had myself a curiously minty spiced beverage. Yum! Later today I want to put the ginger altoids to use; perhaps in a baked treat of some sort.
Thank you Nia for giving me a fabulous start to the weekend!
