This Week’s Reads, Eats and Buys

Thanks to the #SQ1Prom event at Square One Shopping Centre, I took a trip down memory lane.

Happy Sunday! For most of the past week, I’ve been sick with a cold, so my week was incredibly uneventful. Aside from a trip to Mc Donald’s for Mc Nuggets, I didn’t really leave the house until Friday. It’s almost embarrassing to type that out, but it’s true. Even now, I’m feeling a lot better than I was, but I’m still not 100% myself. As you can probably imagine, I’m completely over it!
