Love... and stuff

I've had today off from work, and I've spent the day walking in a leisurely pace around Surry Hills. A cute little suburb just south of Sydney's CBD. The area is full of shops that sell all things creative, be it clothes, furniture, homeware or stationery. All the things that I like love. Unfortunately many shops were closed due to their extended Christmas holidays, so I had to settle for window browsing.

For lunch I had a seared tuna salad with green beans, potato and lemon aioli. Yum! Ironically, across town, my husband also had a tuna salad for lunch.

I bought these cute old scrabble letters from a second hand store. On a day like today the letters were quite easy to pick! Today's our third wedding anniversary! This will be my anniversary present for us both, as I haven't bought anything else. Moving a bit ahead of time seeing that the traditional wedding present for the third anniversary is leather, wood would be for the fifth wedding anniversary. Normally I would try to come up with a gift that follows the traditional anniversary gifts, but this year I didn't really prepare in time! Does anyone else follow the traditions when buying anniversary gifts, or do you buy any gifts at all?

Idag spenderade jag min lediga dag med att vandra omkring i Surry Hills, en stadsdel nara Sydneys centrum. I denhar delen av stan hittas en massa butiker som saljer en massa lokala produkter. mobler, klader, husgerad, postkort mm. Tyvarr sa begransades jag till en hel del fonstershoppande eftersom manga affarer hade stangt pga jul/sommarsemester. 


Jag lyckades hitta en liteb butik som salde en massa gamla saker, bland annat gamla Alfapet bokstaver. Jag bestamde mej for att dagens ord maste vara Love eftersom vi idag firar var tredje brollopsdag! Domhar bokstaverna far bli dethar arets brollopsgava, aven om den tradiotionsenliga gavan pa den tredje brollopsdagen ar lader. Vanligtvis brukar jag faktist forsoka komma pa nagot som foljer tradtionen, men i ar sa hoppade jag tydligen lite i forvag. Tra ar namligen den tradiotionella gavan pa den femte brollopsdagen, pa den tredje brollopsdagen ska gavan vara av lader. Foljer nagon annan traditionen nar ni koper gavor pa brollopsdagen, eller koper ni nagra gavor alls?
