Baking, books & just being


Long weekends just are not long enough!
The Queens Birthday long weekend is over {boo!}.
We had a house full of teenagers for a sleepover on Saturday so Sunday was family day.
Packed up the family & headed into the Lifeline Bookfest.
32 books for $50.
Bargain!
Here is a few of them.

My fave find was a very large map from 1970 of the West Indies. I am going to get it framed as it is just beautiful. A little aged, a little weathered & just perfect!
I stumbled on a few hidden treasures {see the Sound of Music score?}

With all the fab recipe books that I found, today I baked!

This cheesecake was simply amazing {if I do say so myself!}
I will share the recipe later in the week.
I didn’t get any sewing done.
I didn’t do any blogging.
And today was even social media free! {until now!}
It felt so good!
I cleaned, I rearranged my bedroom & I loved every second of it!
What did you get up to on the long weekend?

    I've been away from my blogs this weekend nd totally indulged in family time and catching up with friends. It has been so nice and I didn't even get snap happy with the camera either. Best long weekend in ages.
