I've managed to entirely bypass the whole Twilight phenomenon... until now. Last week I decided to pick up the book and see what it is all about. Since then I have...
+Read all four books in the saga
+Watched the movie (again) but have yet to see New Moon and have looked at far too many 'behind the scenes' clips on YouTube.
+Considered buying the soundtrack (and probably will).
Don't judge me. It's good escapist fun, I tell you!
+ Crochet Adorned - new crafty book to add to my collection. The author also blogs at Linda Made. Lots of lovely, colourful, crafty things.
+ The True Blood books boxset, by Charlaine Harris, I got as a Christmas gift. It has books 1-8 so you'll need to snag book 9 too. All it took was one bite and I was addicted.
+ Malteser cake - as soon as I saw Helen's recipe, I had to have a go. It's similar to rocky road and terrifically yummy - I added a handful of chopped up mini marshmallows to mine (pic, above)
+ Living etc - one of the best interiors magazines on the market and I treated myself to a year's subscription.
+ Boots No7 skincare - I have super sensitive skin and can't wear many products but this brand has been my mainstray for years. There's currently a 3-4-2 offer on, so now's the time to stock up.
+ Gilmore Girls - I have no problem with being so late to the party with this show, which ended two years ago. I'm midway through season one and I'm looking forward to seeing the rest.
Sometimes I just want to share fab finds that aren't particularly house and home related. A gorgeous piece of jewellery, a musician that has captured my interest, a cool blog. I hope you'll indulge my sharing and perhaps you'll share some of your cool finds with me?
+ Camilla Kerslake singing Take That's Rule the World in Italian. I stumbled across this singer whilst searching for something else and only clicked on it as we share the same first name. My OH calls her 'the shrieky lady', I do not agree ;-)
+ Pale & Interesting's sublime vintage jewellery. Designed by Atlanta Bartlett, each piece is unique so they're sure to be a winner. I couldn't pick any one piece (well, this and this if you insist).
+ And, of course, a very Happy New Year to you. I hope your 2010 is filled with joy.
I'm Camilla, a journalist, blogger, interiors addict, knitter, new-crocheter, cake eater, chocoholic and mum of three. Sometimes all at once.
