Although Kensington is very tourist-y, I love it. Maybe it's because I'm a tourist, but there are so many wonderful shops, cafes, parks, museums, etc in the area. In the surrounding area alone you have Harrods, Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, Royal Albert Hall, Victoria and Albert Museum, Natural History Museum, Science Museum, etc. SO much… Continue reading Kensington

Spring Risotto
Here's a personal favorite of mine. It's perfect for a rainy spring or summer day! It's also a really simple recipe, and one you can make your own. If you don't like the ingredients used, or want to add more, you can! Here's how it goes: INGREDIENTS: 1 TBS olive oil 1/2 onion, sliced into… Continue reading Spring Risotto

(Nothing beats last summer). A friend of mine, whom I traveled with to… Continue reading Oceanside Feasting

But work has been so hard lately, that it was time to relax and treat myself to one of my most favorite activities (apart from Netflixing of course): Afternoon Tea. Now, I know every one is sick of… Continue reading High Tea
Deconstructed Fajita
I'm a huge foodie. I love trying new foods. Especially foods from other cultures. Over the past couple months I've been eating a ton of Moroccan food and English food, and what I craved more than anything was Mexican. Or anything south of the border from us, really. So I spent some time looking up… Continue reading Deconstructed Fajita
