Treating yourself

Make sure every one is cared for .Then sit in my little garden , weather permitting. Then have a bath with lavender and geranium oils

A new diffuser cheers me up no end and a bag of chocolate gingers from Thornton’s ?

Chocolates, a box of cream cakes from M&S and a bottle of good wine as opposed to my usual plonk, not all to be consumed at the same time, of course!

Just discovered wax melts. Least everyone in the house benefits from my new obsession.?

Quilting fabric or knitting wool.

A cream cake and a visit to the hairdressers, new handbag or shoes.
Only managed the first one over the past 6 months !

Anything garden related. New greenhouse gadget, plants, seeds, pots........

Fabric and patterns - not a treat a necessity - honest. I know I have a stash, but .....

A single fruit scone from local M&S foodhall. Sold as singles and that’s perfect for me. If I bought a pack of 4 I would feel obliged to do the decent thing and eat them all and avoid food wastage.

Chocolate. I don’t treat myself very often though. Once upon a time, in pre Covid times, I used to indulge in a latte and a home made cake in a nice, quiet coffee shop. Can’t quite seem to be able to pluck up the courage to do that any more these days.

I pay for a good film to rent on Amazon Prime for Friday evening viewing. Often there are some very recent films on offer for £2.50.

Chocolate biscuits or chocolate liqueurs yum

Books or new boots. Can’t resist either . Food was/is never a treat.... and is only fuel for the body. I eat less and less these days. Nope... gotta be books or boots!

Buy very little stuff. A real treat for me is a massage by someone with real talent, or a special evening of relaxation by the fire, with a friend and Tibetan bowls and other instruments.

Anything crafty. Just got a huge parcel from China of 5d crystal painting kits will last me for months. Anything for the craft room makes me very happy

Open a bottle of wine and watch a movie from my collection of recordings.

At this season it's Stollen bites from Lidl or M&S.

Books, L'Occitane soap and Clarins hand cream.

Really nice skin care stuff.

Chocolate or something craft related.

Whatever I need at the time.

fabric... and lots of it... i’m a quilter... and fabric gives me a lot of pleasure!

Mine is going to get my hair done because you always feel good , when your hair looks nice .

Nice - but not too expensive - handcream.
