Learn To Fly - Penguin viewing and pancakes.

I've been back to work today so nothing exciting happening there! My day has consisted solely of work, bikini buying and watching penguins. Along with pancake making and Graze eating too.
I'll start with my Graze box, just a little photo to show you again how good it is, mainly because I binned all of the healthy stuff a looooonnnnngggg time ago! I've so far only eaten the tomato dipinetti too, impressed with myself to say the least!
I made pancakes tonight, I used a recipe for fluffy American style pancakes and because I'm so in love with the pancakes Asda do, I tried to remake their maple and white chocolate flavour. I admit they were not the clones of those but they were pretty good if I do say so myself, I even managed to save some to heat for breakfast tomorrow! I also just used a recipe I find online for the pancake batter. I also grabbed some Nutella to add to them. I'm going to start making smoothies and things and I think a nutella, banana and peanut butter smoothie would be the best thing ever! I'm giving up chocolate bars/sweets and bread for lent so I hope the nutella and low calorie hot chocolate will help me through this difficult time!
So on Saturday when I went into town to get perfume for my mam, I wondered into Primark, for nothing in particular, just to have a look to see if they had anything in that would surprise me! It turns out I was right, I checked up the swimwear section and found this gorgeous little navy and white polka dot bikini, it's in a 50s halter style which also means that you can tie the halter around the back for a strapless look, so gorgeous! Unfortunately I thought I'd get a bigger bikini top as I am quite ample in that area but it was in fact too big. That's why I popped in today to grab the next size down. The pants fit well although they're described as high wasted and they weren't really high enough for that description in my opinion, they're more just like a bigger pant, a short maybe!
When I went in today. Grabbed another bikini I'd admired from afar on Saturday, this time red and white polka dot, not obsessed I promise! It's not quite the same style but still has a kind of 50s look to it. Beautiful, and they make me glad I didn't splash out Topshop prices when I saw one I liked last week! the navy bikini was only £10 and the red turned out to be just £7, so cheap and just what you need when they only end up washed out from the sun and chlorine anyway!
