I’d be the first to admit that “pretty” food and, by extension, taking “pretty” pictures of food are not my forte. I have neither the patience nor the ability for either and, whilst I admire those who do, I’ve made peace with my own limitations.
I’ve always loved Ashley’s “Dating my Husband” series (and am eagerly awaiting the book of the same name) but I’ve always naively assumed that the concept didn’t really apply to my relationship with my boyfriend. We don’t have children or any other dependents to distract us from each other. We eat dinner together almost every night of the week. We have, after all, just come back from a week in Sardinia where we barely spoke to anyone else.
I can’t remember how or when I originally came across most of the blogs that I read regularly. Some I probably just gravitated towards because “everyone” reads them, others I imagine I found via twitter or pinterest or links on other sites or they may have found me first. I can, however, distinctly remember the first post I read on Erin’s blog, Naturally Ella.
We’ve just come back from a perfect week in Sardinia. Neither of us had been there before and we didn’t really have any particular expectations. What we wanted was a week of lazy sunshine; a chance to get a bit of space from the frantic everyday of our lives.
Sometimes, there’s nothing better than baking something special for absolutely no reason at all.
