… the blog Belgian Waffling. I’ve got a problem with other blogs because they make me feel insecure and inadequate. But I can’t not read this blog because it’s so funny and brilliant.
Waffle is an ex-pat in Belgium and she has a sad-looking whippet and two sons, one of whom writes these sort of mad phonetic texts that I can barely read for tears of laughter running down my cheeks.
Buy…
This short moon and star necklace from Hush. I have a mania for necklaces from Hush – they are incredibly useful. This short necklace would layer in a pleasing way with either my long heart or star necklace from previous seasons. It’s the sort of thing that turns an outfit from tomboy/vagrant into acceptable. Also available in gold.
Watch…
… Inside Out, if you didn’t see it in the cinema. Now available on iTunes for £13.99 to buy and £4.49 to rent. We have already watched it about seven times since the weekend. “Who’s your friend that likes to play? BING BONG! BING BONG!”
Oh, brilliant, thank you for the Belgian Waffle link! see what you mean!
Thank you for tips. I have just read some of Belgian Waffle and it is excellent/hilarious – but so is your blog! So read those other crap lifestyle-y ones with confidence. I have cried with laughter (and, actually, slight trauma) recognising so much you’ve talked about in both Recipe Rifle and The Spike – although I didn’t know what Brent Cross was (I figured it out) and I’m unlikely to order anything from J Crew (que? I live in Warrington) BUT I still enjoy everything! While I’m here, you should get (or have I missed it?) one of those click things on your website where you can send a link via WhatsApp. I keep cutting and pasting the web address thing to friends in messages – one of those WhatsApp click things would be good idea – so you know your stuff is being shared? Maybe. Does that make sense?
Caroline it is a miracle that I am able to update this blog, WITH PICTURES let alone do a WhatsApp thing. Sorry. I will get on it, I promise. (I don’t.)
omg the Belgian waffler is SO clever. Now I feel insecure and inadequate!
ha ha! I know me too
Loving your new blog. I loved recipe rifle too but the recipes did make me feel a bit inadequate when I knew that my dinner of choice after getting home from work and wrestling the children into bed was likely to be toast (and not even avocado on toast a la Nigella). I am holding you responsible however for my drop in productivity after introducing me to Belgium Waffling and to Cupcakes and Cashmere (which I tend to read with baffled amusement). Anyway, loving your work. Long may it continue!
