“Are you a die-hard Oreo junkie? Then grab a glass of milk and be prepared to be blown away! Crumbly, creamy Oreo cookies covered in melt-in-your-mouth milk chocolate….” This message was in my inbox this morning. The best news ever!

Winter Boots

Rock n Roll in the mountains….Check out The Brits – Music and Winter Festival in Laax, Switzerland and The Little World Festival in Méribel, France. [...]
A few words on Wedgewood

I bought a little dressing table dish from a man on Portobello last year and went back to him several times for Christmas presents the following weekends.
