Winter Traditions

Winter's coming!

I genuinely cannot believe that this Friday marks the start of December. Can you believe it? This year really has flown by.

I have to admit; I much prefer the colder autumn and winter months to the summer {I know, it's slightly bizarre} But there are so many things I love about this time of year and the changing of the seasons!

One of the best bits has to be the accompanying wardrobes, and the chance to pile on thick coats and woolly jumpers.

Wedding Planning with Biscuiteers!

Anyone who has planned a wedding will agree that it can be a stressful, albeit wonderful, time.

Many hours are spent poring over potential flowers and hymns, deciding which guests get which bedrooms at the reception venue, and trying to find a space in the diary to squeeze in a canapé tasting session.

Imagine then just how excited we were to hear that the lovely folk at Biscuiteers were sending us one of their engagement tins to help us get through the planning!

{Clue - very excited.}

The City of Dreaming Spires

"And that sweet City with her dreaming spires..."

Yet another great thing about living in the Cotswolds is our proximity to the beautiful city of Oxford.

I have very fond memories of Oxford, and my visits have varied widely - from singing in Christ Church Cathedral as a schoolgirl, and spending very fun {very drunken} weekends with my friend in her college; to walking around hand-in-hand with Mr MM as we take in the sights, meeting up with friends of ours who have decided to call this marvellous place home.
