What’s your little treat today?

Hello there, wonderful friends!

Isn’t there something just a little magical about a Tuesday afternoon? The hustle and bustle of the morning has finally slowed, the sun is casting that beautiful golden glow, and it feels like the perfect time to hit pause, enjoy a cuppa, and maybe—just maybe—treat yourself to something special! After all, why not? Life’s far too short not to enjoy the little things.

Personally, I’ve found myself becoming a bit too fond of the blueberry muffins from my local cafe—there’s just something about them that makes the afternoon feel a bit brighter.

How about you? What’s your go-to indulgence lately? Whether it’s a lovely bunch of handpicked flowers to brighten up the table, an extra hour of rest (because we all deserve it!), or that delicious slice of cake you’ve been eyeing all week, those little treats can make a world of difference.

We’d love to hear from you—what’s been bringing you joy lately? Share your little indulgences in the comments below, and let’s inspire each other to embrace the simple pleasures that make life a bit sweeter.

Hhonestly I love my apple pie slice from our local bakery
 
custard tart every day
 
On the day I do my grocery shopping there is nothing nicer than a chocolate eclair from Coles or
Wollies. I don't normally eat chocolate so more times than not I would take the chocolate off but then I decided it was a waste. I cut mine in half so it's half for afternoon tea and the other half for supper, my husband asks if I am going to share the supper half "Hell No!" should have kept yours instead of being a guts.
 
A blueberry muffin yum yum
 
I bake my own muffins, however I do like sesame snaps every now and then.
 
I just hiked across Spain on the Camino and almost every day of eight weeks I'd buy a freshly-squeezed orange juice. So yummy! JimZ
