Afternoon tea, for me, is quintessentially British and it’s the way we celebrate so many occasions.
Who would say no to a spread of mini sandwiches and sweet treats with hot tea or champagne? Certainly not me! Continue reading
It’s officially summer and what better way to celebrate than with a cold, fruity glass of Pimm’s & Lemonade.
This time next week, I will be basking in the glory of the English sunshine and I cannot wait.

For me, Christmas isn’t complete without a mince pie… or 10. In Peru, these amazing little guys just do not exist so I have to make them myself.
