Try a cosy Friday with the Swedish art of "Fredagsmys"

If you're anything like me you might have a to do list for the weekend. Yes, you read that correctly. I seem to have lost the art of spontaneity and tend to make a list of what I need to do over the weekend. This might include grocery shopping, laundry, decluttering, working on this business. I often feel guilty when I'm resting which is what the weekend is supposed to be about! So when I ready about the Swedish art of "Fredagsmys" I was hooked! 

The concept is all about winding down the working week by having a slow, cosy Friday with family or friends (or have one alone, eat what you want and watch what you want!) The idea is to cook some comfort food and then relax and watch a movie. It'll set you up for the weekend while allowing you to rest following a long week. 

Weekends now are often full of activities for kids, drop offs, birthday parties, football training, rugby matches and so it's no wonder that we get to Sunday evening and wonder where the weekend went. 

So this Friday, I'll be relaxing. I love the thought of a slow wind down and eating something comforting. I'll leave the to do list for once and focus on the  'to don'ts!'
