Oh hi there!

Hi everyone! And welcome to my blog I guess... So I've decided to start a blog (because, hey, why not?!) and I hope it will manage to amuse/inspire/entertain in anyway anyone who stumbles across it! 

 Firstly a bit about me? Yeah, ok.
1. I've just finished my first year at Exeter University.
2. I'm studying French and Spanish (no, I am not fluent and no, I don't want to be a teacher).
3. I am the youngest of 3, one brother, one sister.
*E.g the beautiful Rafa.
4. I have 2 beautiful black labradors (except one of them just farted...less beautiful).
5. I am a real girly girl, I love baking, shopping and anything pink.
6. For some reason, my nail varnish never chips.
7. I like getting my hair cut really short without telling anyone.
8. I am in love with far too many celebrities* (like seriously, it's not healthy).
9. Dancing always make me feel better. So does chocolate.
10. I think I do quite a good Australian accent. Australians have told me otherwise.

 So there you go, an extremely random set of facts about me, that you probably have no interest in but OH WELL. I'll get better at this blogging business, I promise/hope. 

 Thanks for reading, enjoy the rest of your day!

Where to Eat in Madrid: Part 1

-

I've decided I can't live in a big city when I'm older.  I need to be surrounded by nothing but fields of sheep .  How am I supposed to resist the 7 million different eateries right outside my front door?! Everything from pizza and burgers to ice cream and churros is less than a 5 minute walk from my piso in Madrid and it's pretty stressful, I tell ya. This sort of thing just can't be helped It's safe to say I've sampled a fair few restaurants/cafés/bars (did you know Madrid has more bars per square metre than anywhere else in Europe(!)) since arriving in Madrid 5 months ago - and there's so many more to discover! So I thought I'd start a little series of my favourite places (I couldn't possibly condense them all into one post, or we'd be here for hours.) Sorry in advance for making you really hungry. Trust . If you want... BRUNCH Name:   Federal Café Where?: Plaza de las Comendadores, Plaza del Conde de Barajas  My fav...

Where to Eat in Madrid: Part 2

I somehow only have just over two months left in Madrid , it's really snuck up on me, I tell ya. And the thing I'm most worried about? Leaving before I've eaten at every place on my 'Where To Eat in Madrid' bucket list. Yes that is an actual thing I have made, #priorities. I mean, it's difficult, you want to go back to the good places AND try all the new places. This year abroad stuff is really tough.   So here is Part 2 of the highly acclaimed series, I know you've all been waiting with bated breath. If you want... PIZZA Name : Ôven Where? : Calle de Fuencarral, Calle Gran Vía,  My favourite : Pizza De La Huerta Pizza Pizza Pizza. The tagline of this place is 'Mozzarella Bar'. Need I say more? But for reals, this is definitely the best pizza I've had while being in Madrid, maybe even EVER - serious allegations being made here you guys.  They also have an amazing selection of Mozzarella and Burrata dishes, their speciality, whi...

RECIPE(S): Overnight Oats-turned-smoothie, French Toast and Pancakes

Hiya internet friends!  It would seem that Winter has appeared overnight. Seriously, when did it get so cold? I think we had almost a whole week and a half of Autumn there, classic Britain, and now it's positively freezing. So wrap up warm kids, and start your day off with one of these scrumptious (and healthy) (well, 2 out of 3) breakfasts ! BREKKIE NUMBER ONE. So. Overnight oats, They're pretty great. Usually. Something just went wrong, I think I added too much milk, they were too sloppy and the flavour combo just wasn't working. It's safe to say it was an upsetting morning. UNTIL, I had the genius plan of transforming this soggy, fruity, oaty concoction (sounds appealing, I know) into a smoothie . And it was DELICIOUS. Fab colour, am I right?! This is a pretty free recipe, throw in whatever you fancy! But here's what I used (roughly, this was actually a while ago, shhhh). Ingredients (makes one smoothie): 5 tbsp porridge oats 200ml almond mil...
