Once upon a time, I used to get itchy feet if I hadn’t been out of the country for a month. I was a travel aficionado. Weekend city breaks, European holidays, winter ski trips, a year off travelling through Asia: there were few travel opportunities I didn’t jump at. Frequently. But, now, of course, I’ve … Continue reading Armchair travel

Five woolly baked delights
Which came first: the scheduling for the Great British Bake Off final or National Baking Week?

Make light photography for bloggers workshop

"Not me," you think, "I won't be some crazed bridezilla, storming around the place screaming at people because my napkins … Continue reading Homemade wedding favours
Our wedding
Did I mention I got married recently? Oh yes, in every single post I've written for about a month... Well, hot on the heels of my honeymoon photos, here are a few snaps of my wedding, just in case anyone is interested.* We didn't use an official wedding photographer for our day. Partly because they … Continue reading Our wedding
Bella Puglia
So, I'm back. Back from my wedding. Back from my honeymoon. I'd love to tell you I'm refreshed and relaxed and invigorated and all that, but it would be something of a lie if I did. Just who thinks it's a good idea to take their 14-month-old on honeymoon, anyway?! So wedding chat will have … Continue reading Bella Puglia
