It was all worth it...atleast for us!

So, like I blogged earlier it has taken FOREVER to get some more items uploaded onto electricstore.bigcartel.com! But since adding a handful of pieces on throughout the day we've had nearly 100 visitors.

I'm gonna upload atleast one more thing tonight and a couple tommorow then try and add one a day from now one.

I'm also gonna hit the sewing machine soon as I have a few pieces that need a couple of tweaks before they get their debut.

Procrastinations!!!!!

So, this might seem like a blog based purely on a bunch of excuses as to why I haven't blogged in a million years but it isn't...it's purely me begging for your forgiveness!!!!!

Seriously though, the last couple of months have not been the most fun with house hunting, mortgage sorting, crazy times at work and me getting a nasty virus. I'd say all is starting to look up now, which for the most part it is, except for the fact that the estate agent's we are dealing with are for the best part quite incompetent (don't want to jinx anything so will go into more detail at a later date).

As for the shop, I spending today uploading a bunch of girl's clothing and accessories. After the camera drama, for which I was fully reimbursed, we borrowed someones and edited all the pics but then I never got round to actually doing the leg work. But today's the day and I will be posting on twitter as new stock goes live.

Drum roll please...

The shop is finally up, open, stocked and fully functioning. So far there's a selection of men's tees, jackets and sweatshirts with a few Levis thrown in for good measure. Girl's gear and more coming throughout the next week. Click the 'Electric Store' logo on the right to go straight their, and let us know what you think!

Yum, Yum, Yum

Coleslaw:
Finely slice 1/2 a white cabbage and roughly grate 1 and 1/2 large carrots. Mix in a bowl. In a small bowl mix together 1 tub of creme fraiche, fresh lemon juice, sea salt and ground black pepper. Taste. Add the creme fraiche mix to the veg and thoroughly mix through with a fork to cover all of it. Taste again and add more seasoning if neccesary

Sticky turkey:
In a large bowl whisk together 1tbsp olive oil, 1tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1 tbsp runny honey, 1tsp sea salt, 1/4 tsp paprika and 2 finely chopped cloves of garlic. Chop up 3 turkey breasts into bite size pieces (or cut turkey chunks into smaller pieces). Place in the marinade and mix so all pieces are covered. Leave for atleast 10 minutes. Fry on a medium heat in a dry frying pan in small batches. Eat straight away, eat cold or freeze for later.

And breath!

I'm much calmer after my little camera related rant a couple of days ago. Called the customer services line again today and was taken aback by how helpful the man on the other end of the line was. In 5 minutes everything was sorted and I'm getting a refund - hurrah!

Yesterday also cheered me up no end because:

1. I got to see P :)
2. We had dinner at Nando's - lemon herb chicken fillet pitta with pineapple and chips, I could eat it every day (though I'd no doubt get ludicrously fat and have a blood pressure rating that went through the roof)
3. We went to see this fabby film -
   

I read about it many months ago in a copy of Nylon and have been desperate to see it ever since. Plus we had a voucher for the cinema from Christmas so tickets, large sweet popcorn and large drink where to all intents and purposes free!

We both went a bit crazy over where we'd seen Kat Dennings before but IMDB solved all our problems when we got home (he'd seen her in the '40 Year Old Virgin', I'd seen her in 'Sex & The City').
