Bristol Birthday

This time last year I'd just finally arrived at my new flat in Bristol after having had a hell of a day frantically packing up what felt like a phenomenal amount of stuff for one person, and clambering over boxes in my tiny flat trying to do all the cleaning. After a nice long drive with my fabulous parents who had come down from scotland just to help me move house, I particularly remember that the sweetest moment of the day was when we'd shoved a few boxes in the new flat then, exhausted, found ourselves a pizzeria, mmmm sweet heaven as I was so wonerfully hungry!

So a year later and what do I find myself doing? Attemting to tidy up the impressive mess I made in my flat at the weekend, wondering still why do I have so much junk? And how is it possible for one person to make so much mess?! Has it seriousy been a year & there are STILL those 2 boxes I've never unpacked?!

Sigh...since the pizza was the sweetest part of my day last year, I thought I'd treat myself to one of my favourite dishes tonight, pasta, fresh pesto & plum tomatoes :) Beautiful in its delicious simplicity... :)
