This is what I've worn this evening, after a horrible day in work. The skirt was a complete bargain from h&m, £7 in the sale! I had seen it before but reasoned that I already had enough polka dot skirts, but at £7 I couldn't resist and it's quickly becoming one of my favourite skirts. The cut is just perfect for me I think. I love dresing up after a bad day to make myself feel better. A bit of lipstick always helps too. And then I decided to bake some scones and make some ice cream sandwiches, which also always makes me feel better. Baking is so relaxing and therapeutic for me, except when things go wrong!

This happened the other day! I was making 2 dozen cupcakes for my sister to take into work for her birthday. I was making them the evening before and we had been having a heatwave. It was 9pm but was still about 26c. Frosting does not like the heat at all! I started to pipe the vanilla frosting onto the cupcakes but it was too warm and it started to clog up the piping nozzle. I got a bit angry and had a bit of a tantrum, before I calmed down and decide to solve the problem. Everything worked out okay in the end. The chocolate ones looked especially good, as the icing was a bit sturdier. I also used my edible glitter for the first time and I love it. I need more in other colours!

I hope everyone is having a better weekend than I am, stuck in work. Also, happy 4th July to all you yankees!
