Travelling and where I have been..

I have been wanting to post recently and baking delicious recipes but unfortunately haven't managed to photograph said recipes before they were eaten, so no posts. However I thought I would write a tiny post to tell you where I have been this Easter. See if you can guess -


There was plenty of lots mountains, beautiful views and lots and lots of snow. I'm not kidding, just look at the roof of our apartment!Layers and layers of impacted snow -


So I think you've guess correctly? This Easter I've been away skiing!



It was absolutely amazing. We went to the alps and timed our visit perfectly. The day we arrived there had been so much snow and wind that the slopes had been closed for 3 days but our first day of skiing was glorious. We got snow at night so each morning was a powder day and then beautiful sun during the day to heat us against the freezing conditions. The day we left the sun blasted so strong that it melted the top layer of all the powder, encouraging us that we were leaving at the right time.

One of the most interesting things we witnessed on our trip was the local race that the town holds. Each year they fill the main street with snow and race up and down. It is amazing to see the main street of the town turned into a snowy race course!






I know it's been a while since I posted but I have been thinking about the blog and will return with new recipes very soon. So for the moment, in addition to these skiing photos,I will leave you with a picture of our Easter table all decked out by the Easter bunny -
