iReminisce: The St Maarten Necklace

The smell of the locals cooking on the market was amazing, but Sarah had found a sweet little craft stall. The lady created items from the coral found off the shores St Maarten. โ€œOooooh, i could have a necklace made from St Maartenโ€. I knew that to mean “iโ€™m getting one, i just donโ€™t know which one yet?!โ€ย ๐Ÿคฃ ย

A photo taken from our new years eve (Dec 2011) holiday with friends (Rob, Shelley, Tom, Abbie & Ella) ย inย Ilfracombe, Devon, England, UK. It was very windy and very wet! We had a fantastic time as the holiday home was overlooking this bay so we enjoyed lots of coastal walks and enjoyed local restaurants.

iReminisce: V8

Pickup Truck

While on holiday last year in Hunstanton, Norfolk I kept hearing a fat american V8 driving around the town, and one day it was parked up so I could snap it with my camera!ย ๐Ÿ˜ฒ ย 

My friends dad always had american cars ย and vans and I’ve enjoyed them for most of my life, so I was excited when I could finally put a picture to that beautiful sound.ย ๐Ÿ˜€ย

iReminisce: Elephants Foot

Elephant s Foot

After being back in my home town ofย Derbyย this weekend, i didnโ€™t want to leave without having an โ€˜Elephants Footโ€™ from Birds. Other bakers around the country do similar styles of cakes, but never taste anything like one of these beautyโ€™s, they simply canโ€™t be beaten! Myย sisterย got me a box of 4 to take back home and Sarah & i canโ€™t thank her enough!ย ๐Ÿ˜€ ย 

If you visit Derby or Derbyshire then i recommend that you try one!
