Spicy Bruschetta
Bruschetta is an Italian antipasto (starter) which consists
of toasted Italian bread drenched in olive oil and garlic served typically with
tomatoes. This is one of my favourite starters to make as it is delicious and
everyone I serve it to are always mesmerised by the flavours. Serve this recipe
as an impressive starter or eat it for a tasty lunch. This recipe serves 4.
Peace & Tranquility
Standing alone on a beach looking out into the open air with
nothing to take in but the deep blue water and the sound of crashing waves is
where I find tranquility. I could sit on a beach for hours pondering on my
thoughts and ideas or reading a good book. Sometimes I can find life quite
hectic so a trip to the beach or a walk amongst nature with nobody around is perfect
to set my mind straight. I have an appreciation of the sea because I have lived
in the midlands all of my life, in fact I live very close to the official central
point of England which is in a village called Meriden. So when I do get the
opportunity to visit the coast, I always make it my priority to spend a day or
two in the company of the sea to take a breather from the stresses of life and
relax. There’s something about the fresh sea air that inspires and revives me.
10 of the World's Most Expensive Foods
I love food. I’m
always trying new foods at restaurants and trying out new recipes at home so I got
to thinking what could money buy for a rich person’s palate? As a result, I’ve done some digging and have
found 10 of the world’s most expensive foods. Some sound mouth-wateringly
delicious and others I’m not so fond of but i'll leave that up to you to decide what you like… Anyhow, I hope you find this as
interesting as I have!

two things: Who and what she wants.” Coco Chanel
I am a huge fan of Sleek cosmetics. They’re affordable and are nicely
pigmented so are of really great quality. Plus all of their products are animal friendly. Here are some of my favourites and how
I use them.
Prawn, Mango & Avocado Salad

My Make-Up Bag Essentials
I
am an avid lover of make-up and for me to leave the house without wearing any
is like not wearing any clothes! I started wearing make-up at around 14yrs old
due to getting chicken pox during my teenage years. I was extremely self-conscious
of the scars the infection left so my mum bought me my first bottle of
foundation and showed me the basics on how to apply it. After many years, my
collection and skills have bloomed. Though I’m still left with a few scars, cosmetics
give me the confidence to feel good about myself.
