Cupcake Heaven

Popcorn on cupcakes?!  How creative!

Everyone loves cupcakes.  The newest trend are minis.  It really does make sense.  You can try different flavors instead of having to choose one if you were to choose a big cupcake.  LivingSocial was running a deal for Crumbs and Doilies so I snatched it up and got it for Jon’s birthday this past weekend. I know …

Bistrotheque is a restaurant in Bethenal Green. It was hidden and on a random street but is such a gem.  Everything we order was delicious. Highly recommend.

Trying New Food

IMG_0125

I’ve been introduced to a lot of new “British” foods since working in an office.  I’ll be honestly they are all snacks and junk food but it’s interesting because if it’s just me and Jon alone we would never try any of these. This is an iced finger bun. It’s a roll with icing on …

Nothing But The Truth

My Street in London

All anyone was talking about for the last couple of days was the weather.  The weathermen predicted snow this weekend and suggested for us to stock up incase you can’t get out of your house.  I didn’t believe it one bit because 1) weathermen usually aren’t that spot on and 2) when it snows 2 …

Barrecore

I have been searching for a class like Barrecore for the past year and a half.  There wasn’t anything like this in London. When I saw American Girl In Chelsea post about Barrecore in Chelsea I went to their website and bought the intro package right away! I went to my first class yesterday and …

Explore the Sights of London Cheaply

When I first arrived in London, I felt stuck in a catch-22 situation: all of the attractions were must-see novelties to me, but I multiplied their entrance fees into my home currency and soon felt daunted.

Secret Santa With Friends

Dessert

Before everyone heads home to their home countries for the holidays we got together Monday night to indulge in delicious Italian food, laughter and presents. We went to Rossodiesera in Covent Garden. We also did a £5 ($7.81)secret santa. Everyone got so creative with their gifts. What a great night and way to start off the holidays!
