R is for Restaurant

Alphabet Dating. It's something I've heard of many times but never really given much thought to. But now- with a hectic term ahead and the cricket season approaching- time together is going to be precious and we've got years ahead of us to sit in front of the telly, so we've decided to give it a whirl!

So week one: R

Don't worry, I'm fully aware of the order of the alphabet; we decided to randomly pick a Scrabble letter from a jar to make it a little bit more interesting.

Keeping it fairly simple for our first week we went for restaurant and visited one of our favourite Steak restaurants (Miller & Carter) for a delicious meal and a glass of wine whilst we sat chatting about our plans for our trip to America. A perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon :)

London Love

We really enjoy spending our free time exploring cities around the world, discovering the culture, food and history of the places that we visit, taking photographs and and making memories. Yet, so often we forget just how much is on our door stop (ish..). I have been to London many times for various reasons, but it is SO long since I went as a fully fledged, landmark visiting, snap happy tourist in my own capital. So, during the February half term, we did exactly that!

Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, the Changing of the Guard, Churchill's War Rooms, shopping on Oxford Steet, a show on the West End, Champagne at The Shard- we did it all! And coming across the cutest little cupcake shop in Covent Garden that sold delicious hot chocolate and pretty cupcakes made a very welcome afternoon treat.
