I adore Mexican food with it’s bright colours and flavours. It is not too spicy and suits most palates which makes it a real crowd pleaser. In fact, it is my favourite food the morning after an indulgent night. A plate of Huevos Rancheros and I am good as new again. Well, a bit better […]
I haven’t posted in almost a month which to be honest isn’t all that unusual at this time of year. I had 2 weeks off work and had no intention of turning on a laptop during this time. We didn’t go anywhere but spent really gorgeous days doing walks and playing tourist near home. […]
