wedding: 5 months, 3 days to go...

I am very relaxed about my wedding, to the point that I worry that I should be more stressed about it. I still don't have a dress, I'm planning to be barefoot and just have a flower in my hair that I will find on the island (very simple or crazy??). 

Here are some great, wedding presents and ideas I like :)

Travel

If I could travel for living I would, I actually think I should be paid for all the traveling I do! I love it! Probably my favourite thing in the world. I definitely have a travel bug and have been told that I am not allowed (by my fiance) to book more than 3 holidays at any one time which is a fair enough as I do get a bit crazy with bookings sometimes :)

The best thing about traveling is learning how special cultures, languages and traditions are and how important it is to keep and celebrate them. 

I am going to the USA in two weeks and am tempted to start packing....

New kitchen is coming....

Our kitchen is falling apart (literally) so I've spent hours in the last week looking at and pricing kitchens on the following websites:

  • B&Q
  • Ikea (where you can plan your kitchen online)
  • Homebase
We are not looking for a very expensive kitchen as ours it's tiny and I am in love with plain white cupboards, oak worktops, white sink kitchens. The new kitchen will have open shelves as well for my numerous glass jars and will hopefully look like this...

We ate:
Nomad
Riad Omar 

We visited:
Bahia Palace
Majorelle Garden

We learned to cook:
Amal Training Center

We stayed at:

Weekend Food Prep?

Lets be honest I am organised but I will never be this organised! I love the idea of making food in advance and preparing it on Sunday for the week but even with good intentions this is far too organised for me! To find out how to actually do it read this inspiring post.

Check out "Back to her roots" for amazing ideas on food prep, recipes and a lot more (very inspiring).

Wedding dresses

I've been looking at wedding dresses even though I am not having a "real" wedding. We have now booked the wedding ceremony abroad that no one is coming to (apart from two of us and the master of ceremony) so it's really exciting to look at things without feeling pressured to buy or find a dress. I will not be buying a real, expensive dress but I would love to find a dress to similar to these...

Costa Rica...

I am obsessed with booking plane tickets and holidays! Some women love shoes I love traveling!

So I have decided to go to Costa Rica next year and I can't wait! Don't know much about it apart from the fact that it looks beautiful and very green (with amazing beaches!!). Today I found this on pinterest, useful and practical and would make a great poster. Can't wait to buy my plane ticket now...

And I think I'm back...

I can't believe how long it's been since my last post! And so much has happened...

I travelled to Japan for my and R's 10th anniversary and got engaged, have recently worked more then ever and have realised that I miss blogging!!! So I think I'm back.

So in 2015 I am looking forward to:

  • Making all recipes from Deliciously Ella recipe book (and generally eating healthier) - this was an amazing Christmas present from my friend E.
  • Getting married without having a wedding (we are getting married on our own in the Maldives)
  • Redecorating the kitchen
  • Redecorating the garden
So much to look forward to...

Have a fab week.
