Windfall Apple Crumble

Windfall Apple Crumble

Having your own apple tree means crumble is a regular feature at the dinner table.

And who's complaining?

This year, I wanted to improve upon my apple, damson and blackberry crumble recipe, and to create a warming, delicious crumble that would beat the rest. With a few adjustments here and there, I think we're now onto a winner. This tastes so good with lashings of warm, vanilla custard - but a dollop of clotted cream wouldn't go amiss either...

The Weekend Edit 13/10 - Autumn Jumpers




Pale blue peplum sleeve | Chunky yellow knit | Plum with embellishment | Breton stripe | Blue Fairisle | Cream cable knit {You won't believe the price!} | Red cable knit | Roll neck swing jumper | Blue roll neck | Pink balloon sleeve | Green cocoon sleeve | Red Dachshund | Polka dot {In the sale} | Stripe with embellishment {Also in the sale} | Boat neck | Oversized funnel neck | Boxy cropped | Metallic roll neck {Now less than half price}
 
I think we can all agree that one of the best things about autumn is the knitwear.

My wardrobe creaks under the weight of my cable knit jumpers and dresses - with a plethora of cardigans for good measure, too - and I love being able to layer up and wrap up warm once the weather gets cooler.

The uber-observant ones amongst you may have already spotted that lots of the items in The Weekend Edit today are in the sale - so now really is the time to throw out the threadbare, holey sweaters and treat yourself to some lovely new ones.

Cotswold Wanderings


I love living in the Cotswolds.

Even though we've been here for over a year now, there is still so much to explore. From the picturesque, chocolate-box villages like Bourton-on-the-Water to the beautiful towns such as Cheltenham, there is an incredible amount of wonderful places to visit.

We recently went for a walk through the secluded valleys surrounding the village of Bisley.

As I've said before, Mr MM and I love going for walks in the countryside, and this was a particularly lovely one.

Turning 25

Turning 25

I turn 25 this month!

As I wave goodbye to being 24, I am again reminded of the fact that I really am growing up.

I'm engaged to be married and saving up for a mortgage deposit for our first house - I'm also a fully paid-up National Trust member with an Emma Bridgewater addiction. I'll be honest, I've always been old before my time...
