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.

Carrot + cumin rice
Fregola with roast pepper + cashew pesto

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.
