5 good things

Happy Friday everyone!!! I can think of a million negative things this week but instead of dwelling on them , here are this weeks 5 good things:

1. Its nearly Valentines day, yay. Even though i believe that if you love somebody you should tell them everyday, multiple times a day even, i love Valentines day, of course i hated it when i was single but being in Love is the best thing in the world and any excuse to celebrate that and I'm there. It is also a good excuse to get our glad rags on and go out for a nice meal, which we cant afford to do very often.

2. I was really excited to learn yesterday that KIKO have just launched a range of magnetic nail polishes, see here . i was debating buying a nails inc one when they came out but at nearly 15 pound plus 5 pound P&P to Spain it just seemed ridiculous to spend 20 pound on a nail polish i would probably only use a few times. so at a 3rd of the price and with a much better colour range i cant wait to try these.

3. My little brother ( actually not so little at over a foot taller than me, but 2 years younger) got engaged this week to his girlfriend of 7 years, they were in the same class all the way through high school then got together when they started college. Of course being 2 years older than him i wish i was engaged first but i am happy for them, which bring me onto my next good thing....

4. Card Town are offering 5 pound free credit to use on any cards on their website as a special valentines offer, so i signed up for my free credit and sent my bro an engagement card. here is the link to the page to get the free credit and you can send all cards internationally and they can all be personalised, the offer ends on Valentines day though so if you want to send a free card get there before the offer ends.

5. I know this one may cause a bit of a stir but.. i was in the supermarket last week looking at the steak and got to a section called potro, the meat looked nice but i had no idea what it was, it was quite a good price so i got some. Then when i got home i checked the translation and found out it was horse meat, yes horse! Well i will try anything once, so i cooked it and it was yummy, i was expecting it to be like beef but stronger but it was really mild. my boyfriend has had it before on holiday somewhere in Europe and liked it then and he loved it too, so that will become a regular food in our house now. And since i bought it i have noticed that most supermarkets sell it, its only taken me 6 years to notice...

What are your 5 good things this week? Has anybody else tried horse?
