Three Holidays

We've got three holidays rolled into one here, starting with Valentine's Day, then Pancake Day, and finally Chinese New Year. So lets get started.

Dixon and I celebrated our Valentine's Day slightly early with a holiday I like myself, Friday the 13th. So he gave me his gift that night and we went out to dinner to our favourite spot, David Bann's. I have posted about them so many times because since the first time we went it has always been amazing. I also now realise that I basically wear the same thing each time, stripes, strips and more stripes. But hey don't mess with a good thing! The food again was fantastic, its always great to look at a menu and be able to order anything I fancy off of it.

Dixon got me a beautiful necklace from the fabulous, Bloody Mary Metal, I have been ogling their stuff for sometime, maybe he noticed. I don't usually wear jewelry, but it is so nice! 





I was off my photo game for Chinese New Year, but I snapped a couple, Hayley went to such an effort to make the room look amazing and all the food was great as well. It was really fun celebrating something that we haven't done before. Not to mention we lit lanterns, which I have always wanted to do since I first spotted them in the sky. So I am really happy Hayley put it all together to make it happen.

It was a wonderful evening together.



And last but not least, Pancake Day. It falls between our previous holidays on the 17th this year, and since that day I have been obsessed with making pancakes. I think in the last week I have had pancakes for 5 meals, that might be a bit weird, but maybe I was going through pancake withdrawals. 

Traditionally known as Shrove Tuesday, Pancake Day started as a way to use up your fats you have in your cupboard for the start of Lent. Now in the UK at least, everyone just goes daft for pancakes. Pretty well everyone I know ate pancakes that day for one of their meals. So its a bit of fun and delicious!
