There’s something to be said about the beautiful people in Paris. And that is that I am definitely not one of them.

Ages and ages and ages (read: 6 weeks) ago, one of my best friends in this glorious world, Loreen, turned the ripe young age of 30. She was off on the Inca trail on this momentus day, proving her youth by trekking this hideously high altituded (oh yes, that is now a word) pathway sans … Read More →
I made this gorgeous! stunning! I’m so modest! pavlova for a dinner party on Tuesday night and have been dying to post about it because aside from being absolutely beautiful, it also complements the weather right now perfectly ~ London is in the midst of another little spurt of summer, with the mercury rising into … Read More →
I learned two very important lessons this weekend. I learned the hard way that one should never assume anything and that on a more minor scale, one should always seek information from others, because one (and this one in particular) is not always the cleverest bean in the pot.

Ok.

It happened again. This time last year, I remember waking up, frothing at the mouth excited like someone was giving me a puppy wrapped in a ticket to Vegas on Christmas morning. But it wasn’t Christmas and there was no puppy. A ticket to Vegas did come eventually, but that’s not the story. The story … Read More →
Right this moment I have to say I deserve something amazing. Like totally amazing. Like an Eton mess, complete with fresh strawberries and blueberries and generous scoops of Häagen Dazs vanilla ice cream. YEAH. Why do I deserve such awesomeness? Well because today I worked. For free. I helped out at the Bea’s of Bloomsbury … Read More →
We had dinner at Café VN tonight. That’s two visits in three days so I thought I’d better show some RES.PECT. and blog about them. What can I say? I’ve fallen head over heels in love, in love with the… … squidge-tastic noodles… *heart* I realise there are quite a number of Vietnamese restaurants littered across … Read More →

Yes. I now have yet another place to satisfy my Gruyère cheeseburger fix, washed down by an A&W root beer float. Happy days! Byron is my favourite burger joint. It’s Panu’s favourite burger joint. So everyone should just like, go. And if you’re really insanely bored or just boycotting work on this gorgeous stunning Friday we’re … Read More →
So I have this job where I work on my own. It’s kind of hard to explain so I’m just going to glaze over that but anyway, every day I plug away on my filthy excuse of a laptop keyboard, poking away at the keys to form words which eventually become some important document that … Read More →
