Today I finished work at 7am. I came home and collapsed into bed until 11am. Luckily
mc_shamo had the day off too! We had french toast for breakfast while I wrote out a massive shopping list an then we went out for errands.
We bought a herb garden! We went to the nursery on Macaulay rd and bought Italian parsley, mint, thyme, coriander, lemongrass, rosemary, oregano and chives. These are the herbs we cook with the most apart from basil which does not seem to be in season. We also bought two wide shallow bowl-like pots and some potting mix so out garden will be portable.
From the nursery we went to the Queen Vic market for meat and fruit and veggies, which was fun. Then we went to the supermarket for the non-fresh items we needed. We came home, packed the shopping away and divided tasks: Seamus made a beautiful soup while I planted the herb garden and tackled the Mountain o' Dishes.
After lunch (which we had at 4pm) my night at work was catching up with me so I went upstairs to sleep. Which is kinda what I've been doing ever since (and reading in bed during the day- one of my favourite guilty pleasures!)
Now Seamus is downstairs feeding the kittens and I'm planning on taking a nice relaxing bath before eating dinner and getting ready to go our with good friends.
Such a lovely day, I'm so glad I swapped my shifts around.
