It's pretty hard to find good Mexican food in London but Wahaca does well. It's not typical 'Tex-Mex' with burritos and fajitas abound, it has a lot of the more unusual dishes, and excellent margaritas and Mexcian beers too. This month they are serving up grasshoppers in their Southbank Experiment restaurant, which is cleverly located inside a few adjoining containers attached to the side of the South Bank Centre. Yum!
Lovely to see the Cabana Quilt featured in the May 2013 issue of Homes and Gardens, featured in Summer Quilts.
All the decs are put away. It's back to work, school and routine. I love the Christmas holiday as it's a great time to feel festive and have some fun, and catch up with friends, both old and new. The New Year is always close on its heels - welcome in 2013!
Vignettes of sweets have always been alluring to me, I do have an incredibly sweet tooth so will always go out of my way to try sweet treats if not tried before! This is a colourful window in Barcelona. These balls of coloured sugar were super sweet, they say you should drop them in a glass of water and make a sweet drink! It's quite possible that these colours from summer inspired my new Dotty accessories.
On the rare occasion that I can nip over to Borough Market in the morning, I'll hold off on breakfast and go and sit in a cafe and take a coffee and pastry and watch the world go by. The buzz is great, the smells are more than aromatic, and the people watching is always fun. The atmosphere and the offerings in the market are amazing, and I always try and come away with something I've never tried before!
I was happy to see my 'Kate' & 'William' bunting in You Magazine (Daily Mail) last Sunday, as part of a last minute ideas for Royal Wedding parties article. And with it being featured only a few days before the event I was kept quite busy in the run up!
