Kawaii Ebay Haul!

I got a Nectar voucher for Ebay so I thought I would buy some more cute things!
On the far left is a lucky cat coin purse. It has a bell so you can also find it in your bag!
I also bought some Sumikko Gurashi sticker flakes designed by San X. They are simply adorable! 
I have a lot of cards in my bag so to keep organised I bought a card holder from Sanrio to keep them altogether. I love Pom Pom Purin, I even have a handbag so why not get the card holder to match? ðŸ˜Š 
The card holder has a zip up pocket and an outer pocket. The zip up pocket can be a little snug which makes it hard to fit a lot of cards inside but the outer pocket works well – perhaps keep important cards inside and other cards in the outer pocket. It is fairly cheap and the artwork is cute.
The last thing I bought was a Molang Diary. I have seen these in various websites and I have always thought they look cute but never bought one. If you are looking for one, I would suggest using Ebay as you can buy them cheaper. 
I bought the small diary in blue for just under £5 (yesstyle sells them for just under  £9). The actual weekly planner is undated so you can use it at any time rather than one specific year only, just the yearly calender is dated. I bought a 2016-2017 diary but I did see 2014-2015 diaries on sale at a cheaper price. These are still usable as the weekly planner is undated.
The pictures inside the diary are cute and the is a pocket at the front so you can keep notes or small cards in.
Ebay is great for finding kawaii items, I would recommend using it for small items, stationery and small accessories. The prices are cheap although a lot of the items ship from China and South Korea, so they take a little longer to arrive than buying nationally. Having said that, most the items arrived within 2 weeks except the purse, which took about a month. Always check the feedback ratings to make sure you are buying from a reputable seller! Happy shopping!

Edinburgh - Eteaket Tea Room and Ibis Hotel

We arrived on a Thursday afternoon. Luckily for us, the sun was shining as we made our way to the Eteaket tea room on Frederick Street. Eteaket is famed for its teas, and they supply many local restaurants and other cafes. The tea room itself is quite spacious and full of customers, which shows how popular it is. As well as teas, light lunches and afternoon teas are also on the menu; something to suit any occasion. I opted for a high tea, with Royal Earl Grey tea. The high tea is priced at £8.45 and includes half a sandwich of your choice (I had Scottish Ham and Cheddar Cheese), scone (fruit or plain) and a mini cake (I think I had lemon cake). Tea is also included. Eteaket uses loose leaf tea, good quality and better tasting. The waitress also brough a mini timer. When the sands run out, the tea has brewed for long enough and is ready to drink after you remove the filter. What a beautiful cup of tea! The food was tasty and filling too, making it a great value high tea...

Edinburgh - National Museum of Scotland

The National Museum of Scotland is a vast building filled with exhibitions and displays covering nature, history, art, literature and science. There are also sections dedicated to Scottish history and culture. There is so much to see, I could possibly see one spending the entire day here! Another bonus is that it is free admittance. We were only here for a few hours, so unfortunately we didn’t get to see everything. My particular favourites were seeing the displays on different world cultures, natural history and the environment and the pivotal role Scotland has played in popular culture and art through the ages.

Thomas Carr at the Olive Room, Ilfracombe - Christmas Lunch!

Thomas Carr at the Olive Room was recently rewarded a Michelin Star for its use of fresh, local ingredients and superb flavours, and it is certainly very popular. I was wanting to try the food here, but the restaurant is currently closed at lunchtimes and closed on my only day off! So…I have been waiting a long time! On their Facebook page last year, they announced they had late cancellations for Christmas lunch, so why not try something different to your usual Christmas fare? When you arrive, it is not what you would expect a Michelin Star restaurant to be like. It is quite a small restaurant, we almost drove past it! Inside there were only two other tables and the owner’s family seated for Christmas lunch. I can’t imagine a lot of people can be seated on a weekend night. The other Michelin restaurant I have visited was Castle Terrace Restaurant in Edinburgh, where the restaurant was huge, grand and the staff professionally trained. The Olive Room resembles a more smaller and cosie...
