weekend fun

This weekend was actually pretty laid back, one of those nice catchup, save money ones. which was going along fine until i went to urban outfitters online store on sunday! where i ordered this top, which i just couldn't resist, and i'm now super excited to see it wedged into my mail box later this week! i personally hate souvenirs, i don't like getting them, i don't like giving them, i don't like shopping for them. presents i love, but souvenirs to me is something someone gives you that has no meaning to you, cause you haven't been there, and in every other sense of the word is a useless piece of crap. of course thats generally speaking, there is the odd exception.
So here i am living in New York with well no "New York" memorabilia and lets face it, everyone needs a New York T right? each day i pass these oversized unfitted t's "i <3 NYC" down the streets, but i haven't been able to bring myself to get one knowing full well it will not be seen in the light of day when i look like a drowned rat in her fathers t-shirt in it. So you can imagine my delight when i came across this cute "souvenir" new york t from my favorite store!


I did also manage to pop over to the next door neighbours annual apple picking party on the beautiful hot saturday with my friend Blanche, which might sound like quite a weird way to spend your saturday. but this party really is one of a kind. i guess it does help that my neighbour is a multi millionaire and the party was set up in a big or three big marquees in the middle of his apple orchard with amazing food and drinks, complete with a pop corn and candy floss machine where you can stir it right onto your own stick! there were piles of big stacks of old wooden baskets to help yourself to that included a map around the orchard so you knew what you were picking, and at then end of the day you got to go home with you sick belly and ample apples. nice!
