Grow little sunflower, grow

I planted three sunflower seeds on the May Day Bank Holiday a couple of weeks ago and noticed today they're just starting to sprout! This is the first time I've ever planted a sunflower so (even though this might be slightly sad of me) I'm kind of excited to see how tall it will grow :)

My sister has a matching pot that I planted at the same time so we're having a bit of a race... Hers are winning at the moment, they sprouted about three or four days ago so mine have a bit of catching up to do...

Taking my new cup on an outing

I bought the cutest coffee cup over the Bank Holiday weekend, it's plastic with a silicone heat protector/gripper for holding it. I've been wanting one for a while but never saw one which caught my eye... Until I saw this one while queuing at Primark! It's covered in cute kawaii food and other objects and it makes me smile early in the morning when I'm rushing to work :-)
I've got a meeting in London today so my little cup is coming with me on its first proper outing. Here's a pic of it chilling on the train...

On the train

My car's been out of action the past couple of weeks. Well actually, technically, it's my boyfriend's car that's been out of action - meaning he's been using my car to get to work and I've been taking the train.

I must say it's quite nice not to have to drive... But the gruelling 40min uphill power-walk to work after the train more than makes up for the relaxing train ride to start with.

Let's just say I'm really quite excited that he's picking up his new car tonight so I can have my beloved Daisy back :) (yes- I've named my car, don't judge me!)
