Competition tip!

Great competitions with awesome prizes found here.

Best film I've seen this year!

We watched The Help last weekend. Oh I loved it so much! It made me smile and it made me cry. And the actresses are so amazing. Watch it if you haven't already.

I've started reading the book too. I started reading it when I knew I wanted to see the film, then I couldn't help myself and had to watch the film before I'd finished the book. The book is great too! 

DIY Tequila/Beer Cocktails

So, Desperados is a delicious beer with a taste of Tequila. The other day we watched Nigella Lawson make margarita/beer cocktails and that inspired us to try to make something that tastes like Desperados at home this past weekend.

The successful mix for one pint is:

1 lager of your choice (we used Stella Artois 440ml)

2 Tablespoons of golden Tequila

2 Tablespoons of Lime Cordial

1 Teaspoon of brown sugar crystals

1 lime wedge

Ice

Mix sugar, tequila, lime cordial and lime wedge (squeeze it into the glass and then put the wedge in the glass). Add your lager and ice. Enjoy! *most enjoyable on a sunny summer day*

Inspired

I found this photo on a blog somewhere and I just love it. I love anything rainbow inspired really. Cupcakes, socks, hair... you name it. I'm pretty sure the colours are painted on in Photoshop but it still makes a cool picture.

Stylish & Childish

Brio makes the best toys! And the prettiest! I don't have any kids but when I do they'll be playing with things like this. No need to put the toys away when they look like this.
