T.G.I.F.

This week has not been the greatest week overall for a variety of reasons and I have felt pretty rubbish for parts of it however I have made it to Friday. It is the beginning of 2 weeks of school holidays here so everyone is pleased to see the end of the week and the school term. Me included!

I was in no mood to go out but I really wanted a gin and tonic and because I am trying to be good with my diet I thought I would try something new to have as my mixer. I had to go and get a few errands at the supermarket so I stopped at the liquor store and found this new option as a mixer. 

It is a lower carb/sugar tonic water and the packaging is so pretty. It is nearly twice the price of my usual mixer but at $9.99 for four I still thought it made for a cheap Friday night as I'll enjoy one or two only in the peace of our own home. I have found myself a lovely crystal tumbler for $4.00 at the op shop a few weeks back so it makes the drinking experience even more upmarket. Much cheaper than a pub at $2.50 plus the nip of gin - wow I am the last of the big spenders!!
