Slow Sundays

After one long week and before another, it is nice to enjoy a slow Sunday

. A day during which we can sleep in without guilt, we can spend hours curled up on our living room couch reading a good piece of fiction, we can catch up on the movies we've missed, or read the paper cover to cover in the comfort of our own garden. Slow Sundays are days when calories don't count, where make-up doesn't need to be worn and when not answering our mobiles is acceptable.

Some homely ways to enjoy your slow Sunday might include:

1. Baking:

It is not often that we have ample time to bake cookies or try out a new recipe. Sunday might be the perfect time to do that. Head to the grocery store in the morning, buy the ingredients that you need and get cooking. If your meal turns into a success you can share it with your family that night, or if it's something only you will enjoy, pack it into lunches for the weeks. If you bake fresh cookies you'll have the whole day to enjoy them and the members of your household are sure to love you.

2. Clean up:

Sundays are great days to get your laundry done, clean your room, give yourself a manicure and tweeze your eyebrows. Do your hair, pick up your dry cleaning, pay a few bills and get all of the nitty gritty out of the way so that you can focus on work from Monday to Friday and have the time to enjoy your evenings with friends, doing the things you love.

3. Reading:

With so much of our time being spent at work, behind a desk or commuting to and from the office it's difficult to find the time to sit back and enjoy a nice piece of fiction, or to catch up on world events. Sundays are the perfect day to curl up in bed with a good book and a cup of tea or, if weather permits, to lounge on your garden sofa and enjoy some sunshine while you read.

4. Catching up with overseas friends:

When your friends and family live abroad, it's difficult to catch them during the week. They're asleep when you're at work and you're asleep when they get home from the office. Sundays are a nice time to catch people while they too are at home relaxing. You can finally have that nice long catch up you've been needing. Similarly, Sundays are a good day to respond to personal emails and plan your week.

Better to tire yourself out on Saturday so that you have a nice long Sunday to relax and recharge your batteries for the week ahead.
