Friday Favourites/// Fox + Bag + Bookmark + Funky Places!

Hello!

And a super duper happy Friday to you!

I am bringing my Friday Favourites a little early to you today(pretty much at the stroke at midnight in my time zone)...my Thursday was a bit glum...spent mostly in bed trying to feel better. And then I spent most of my evening watching the News and being equal parts horrified and scandalised by the tragic Sheena Bora murder case! People can be so awful sometimes!

Moving on to cheerful things...my favourite things to focus on this week!

1. Super cute Fox cards/journaling cards from Happie Scrappie! I am in love with all things Fox and these cuties are perfection!

2. A tiny little gorgeous bag that my sister picked up from Jaipur. So lovely. Handmade and so vibrant.

3. A colourful bookmark that we recently found again tucked into an old book.

4. #Pani meaning #Water...cool details and design sensibility we saw at Colaba Social.

5. And the best dang chicken burger ever...well at least in Bombay..the Crispy Chicken Burger with the works at Indigo Deli. So good!

Hope your Friday is nice and the weekend is everything you hope for.

Mine will be quiet one.

I don't see myself doing much.

Staying in and fighting off the stomach infection...no fun at all! :(

I will be back with book reviews when my stomach is not in such agony!

Happy Reading :)

Book Review: The Room on the Roof by Ruskin Bond.

Some snippets of the stunning art inside the book! Book: The Room on the Roof Author: Ruskin Bond Illustrator: Ahlawat Gunjan Pages: 171 Read On: Hardback How Long It Took Me To Read: 3 days or so.
