A few of my favourite things #115

I've been on annual leave this week and it's been a bit bleddy lovely - plenty of sunshine, trips to the beach, picnics, socially distanced catch ups with family and friends... <3 Plus I've got a few afternoons off coming up, so I'm hoping for more of the same.

A few of my favourite things #113

A few of my favourite things #97

Looks like storms are coming today (hopefully not the metaphorical kind) so I'm extra grateful for the last few days I've had with Jenson.

A blissful birthday break at St Moritz Hotel

First of all, I'm totally not sorry for the alliterative title of this post. Second of all, I'm not sorry (much) that I left Jenson for 24 hours after he spent a night being a sick. You know why? Because I was reminded that other people are more than capable of stepping in (thanks, Dad!)… Continue reading A blissful birthday break at St Moritz Hotel

Exploring Cornwall: Tremenheere Kitchen

A few weeks ago I headed over to the Tremenheere Kitchen for the first time. Yes, I've lived in Penzance for nearly all of my 30 years on this planet and had never been to the Sculpture Gardens or this incredible restaurant. Well, that certainly won't be the last time I visit. I'll be honest,… Continue reading Exploring Cornwall: Tremenheere Kitchen

I've decided to mix things up a bit on the blog this week. I've done away with my weekly Saturday Share, in favour of a Follow Friday shout out on Twitter and Instagram, plus a top five in my monthly newsletter.
