+ Buying a scrapbook. There’s nothing in yet but it’s beautiful and will soon be filled with beautiful things.
+ Wasabi peas. I bought some on a whim from Tesco and they’re pretty tasty. When I ate the first one it was so spicy I thought I was going to cry, but the spice lasts for about 2 seconds and then gives way to a slightly sweet deliciousness. Nice as snacks, great on salads.
+ My holiday to Italy next month. I’m getting very excited and have made a ridiculously long lists of things I want to see and do. I want churches, gardens, wine, ancient ruins, opera, coffee, Shakespeare plays, pizza, markets, gelato and maybe even a gondola ride. Figuring out what to pack is a bit of a pain because we’re there for 10 days and we’re travelling from place to place, but I would happily wear a sack to wander round Italy at the height of summer.
+ Seeing the boyfriend a week earlier than expected :)
+ Gilmore Girls. Don’t hate. Guilty pleasure.
+ Running on the treadmill for the first time in… well, far too long. Granted it was only for 20 minutes but it felt good!

I like your blog! :)
Oh I’ve always wanted to go to Italy! Have fun, and keep us posted!!! Btw, gelato is amazing in California – I bet it’s so much better in Italy.

Thanks so much! :)
I went once before to visit a friend who was studying there and fell in love, I’m so glad I’m going back! There will definitely be a lot of Italy-related posts some time after the 27th August. It is amazing, I think I’m going to eat my body weight in gelato!
