Just one more week. This year doesn’t feel so dramatic as the years before. If you don’t know, North St. usually closes for 4-5 weeks in August but this year we decided (with everything that’s going on) that it wouldn’t be worth it. So yes we are still closing, but only for 2 weeks. I know for many of you this is still a long time but listen, I need a break from y’all…#loveyou

Moose is recovering well but he looks like Frankenstein…in other news i’d like to give a shout out to Charlie for not being a Karen this morning and accepting the coffee with cow juice in it (instead of the hipster oat sauce he had requested). and shout out to Sonja…for being there. Is that what you wanted? Happy now? Honestly who asks their local coffee shop for shout out online? Sad.

My child is going under the knife today so i’m a little off kilter. Yes I am a mother to a 25kg Border Collie called Moose, the resemblance is uncanny!

I DROPPED! HARD. I was in Battersea park with my dog and i tripped on a tiny fence and I went flying. I WAS MORTIFIED. I also fell on my freshly inked tattoo which just added to the pain. There was no way to style it out because as I fell I squealed. So how was my weekend? Painful.

The worse things about hot days is that Mad makes Gazpacho…I hate Gazpacho. It’s a herby tomato juice, however add in a couple shots of Vodka and you have yourself a party!

I like dining out on hump day. It splits up the week so before you know it it’s Friday! It’s been good vibes this morning which is nice compared to yesterday.

‘Tis the start of a new week. The rain is pouring and i’m smiling. It’s a long day today because its cash and carry night. This is the one time I don’t like rain pour as it makes for a slip hazard!

Last night’s dinner was tasty, but it’s just steak. Steak and chips is a classic but I just find it boring. The wine was fun though..

Tonight I will dine on a select piece of cow known as steak. I will not be calling myself a vegetarian for the next month to make up for this heinous act. You see, I couldn’t resist because I have a voucher for steak and unlimited fries at Marco Pierre White’s Steakhouse in the city. I could always just have the fries….
