Sweet Things & Deviant Thoughts

popped into the MinaLima store
When The Cursed Child first opened on the West End, I went to see it and, during the break between the two plays, stumbled upon this charming little Harry Potter shop tucked into a tall, narrow building. It was full of incredible artwork, original props, and books. I ended up buying a signed, numbered print of the Marauder’s Map.

While checking out, I spent probably half an hour chatting with the guy working there about the play and what I thought so far. He kept hinting at how much I was going to love the second half. As I was leaving, I spotted a MinaLima book with their faces on the cover and realized I’d just spent half an hour casually chatting with Eduardo Lima 🤣

We ended up going back so he could personally sign my print before they shipped it ❤️

I love this!!! They’re honestly so kind.
their shop is amazing.

The play was so fun, I watched it when it was here. I think they condensed it though.
My favourite part was definitely the “magic” of it all. And the dementors. 🥰
 
Today’s Song: 🖤


"Hands Down"

Breathe in for luck, breathe in so deep
This air is blessed, you share with me
This night is wild, so calm and dull
These hearts, they race, from self control
Your legs are smooth as they graze mine
We're doing fine, we're doing nothing at all

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy?
My heart is yours to fill or burst to break or bury
Or wear as jewelry, whichever you prefer

The words are hushed, let's not get busted
Just lay entwined here, undiscovered
Safe in here from all the stupid questions
"Hey, did you get some?" Man, that is so dumb
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close, they can't hear
So we can get some

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy?
My heart is yours to fill or burst, to break or bury
Or wear as jewelry, whichever you prefer

Hands down, this is the best day I can
Ever remember, I'll always remember the sound
Of the stereo, the dim of the soft lights
The scent of your hair that you twirled in your fingers
And the time on the clock when we realized it's so late
And this walk that we shared together
The streets were wet, and the gate was locked
So I jumped it and I let you in
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
And you kissed me like you meant it
And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it, that you meant it
And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it
 
Day 3 🇬🇧 (the England throwback diaries)
I think I’m sticking to that title?

A day of castles, ancient stones, and falling in love!
Windsor, Stonehenge (no photo included because if you see it, you see it lol), and Bath all in one day. SO much history and beauty packed into one trip!

But Bath… 😍 I fell completely in love with this place and the gorgeous architecture. Obviously had to bring home a gorgeous copy of Persuasion as a souvenir as well.

Only wish I’d had more time to wander around and explore. Definitely adding a proper Bath trip to the never-ending travel wishlist! ❤️
Also another gorgeously sunny day lol
