Weekend Scenes

Another three day weekend! Yay! It kicked off in a very pro-active fashion on Saturday morning with a Capital Tri Duathlon race at the Olympic Velo Park, and I didn't come last! If you like cycling I wholeheartedly recommend visiting the track for a zoom around. 
Looking happy post race, the lactic acid had yet to kick in!
Post race fuel came in the form of homemade blueberry pancakes. It was the first time I've attempted them and they were incredibly easy and tasty. I substituted the milk for hazlenut milk and added some almonds into the recipe for more protein.

Much of the weekend was spent lazing around finally reading Grace Coddington's autobiography. What a life Grace has enjoyed! I finished the book on Sunday and love the flame haired super stylist even more than before.
Grace Coddington's memoir is a must read!
Saturday evening we headed to my favourite local burger spot The Advisory for veggie burgers and humungous onion rings. They do a mean bourbon cocktail too!

It was a sort of date night so I decided to wear my new H&M skirt.

Over the weekend I finally treated myself to something I've been lusting after for years. And despite it being a wildly extravagant purchase I LOVE it!
My beautiful new Rolex
A girl's got to treat herself right!?!

Enjoy the rest of the long weekend!
