The Palace

Last week I had a trip to Blenheim Palace. After having a look around the house and gardens, I had a champagne tea, which was amazing!

There were three tiers of sandwiches and cakes!

Between three people, it wasn't all for me! But it was so nice and we were looking out onto the gardens and water fountains. Definitely recommended!

Big Bang

Last night there was a Jools Holland concert not far from my house. If it hadn't been such a rainy and cold night, I would have sat out in the garden and listened. But at 10.20, there was a big firework display to end the concert, so I quickly grabbed my camera and leaned out of my bedroom window to try capturing a few shots. This was my favourite out of a whole bunch I took.

I just wish I had a better lens now! So I could have gotten some closer shots.

Good Brownies?

I made some brownies today, but they are not what they seem! I tried a recipe from the latest 'Cook yourself thin' recipe book. They arn't exactly calorie free, but a tiny little square is only around 100 calories! They taste pretty good for a lower calorie chocolaty snack.
