Motto for the moment

"Always keep a bottle of champagne in the fridge for special occasions. Sometimes the special occasion is that you’ve got a bottle of champagne in the fridge." - Hester Browne

Soon to be Bon Voyage.


tasty treats = inspiration. source: pinterest

Having just returned from high tea at the Mount Nelson (Thanks BBC) and feeling suitably inspired, I thought I would post some more reasons to smile. There is something about eating the tiniest versions of the tastiest treats, while sipping on some bubbles, that inspires creativity.  

Engagement party plans are underway, thanks to the amazing talents of my closest friends… and the date is set. The best part about the planning is that I have something to keep my mind off our impending trip to Europe – if I wasn’t planning a party, I would be pinning bikinis and white sandy beaches...

In 3 weeks, the fiancĂ© and I, and four fab friends will be jetting off to the Netherlands and Spain. Having seen France and Italy in 2010, we decided it was high time to spend a few weeks in Spain over their summer. Two years of planning and saving, and off we go… If I come back with a tan, while everyone is covered from neck to toe in warm winter attire, it will be the first time I have ever been a shade darker than almost everyone I know.

The flights and accommodation are booked, and we had a final “meeting” last night to discuss the (very important) details - what to pack, and what to get done before D-day.
Needless to say - thoroughly excited!
