A Green Thing

The fashion world goes crazy for fall, but I've always been more of a spring/summer girl. I'm learning to love it this year though - and it doesn't hurt that the sun has stuck around, so I can actually get out and enjoy the scenery as the colours change.

I've been spending lots of time with the two critters below - but unlike me they don't appreciate hot weather. They're both mountain dogs and they're much more at home in the cold.

Scotland: Argyll & Bute

Today is my birthday - so naturally I took the whole week off to celebrate. What better way to spend it than a trip to one of my favourite places?

Vienna: Stephansdom and Sacher Torte

There are many, many delicious cakes on offer in Vienna. However, I was most looking forward to trying Sacher Torte - which was invented in the city. Sacher Torte is a chocolate cake made to a secret recipe and sandwiched using apricot jam. As a girl who has eaten a LOT of chocolate cake over the years, I'd say this is definitely worth the hype. After exploring Stephansdom (and a nearby bavarian market) we headed to The Hotel Sacher to try out Austria's most famous cake in the place where it was first conceived.

36 Hours in York

Image
6 weeks ago I had the unexpected pleasure of some time off, with my other half. We decided to make sure it was quality time together and to get away from the humdrum of home for a bit. We stayed at the rather lovely Principal York Hotel which, despite it's elegant appearance, was not quite as smoothly run as I'd have hoped, but it all got sorted in the end! After checking in, we headed out to explore. I think I must have a Christmas-sensor embedded in me because I can sniff it out anywhere and was quickly drawn into  this store . Our next stop was to The York Museum . By the time I'd been dragged out of Christmas-land, time was ticking on a bit... The very kind attendants at the museum reassured us that we would have time to do one wing and helpfully, gave us a pass so that we could return the next day for the other half of the museum. The museum was formerly a Prison and we spent our first day in the Women's Wing - w...
