“First we eat, then we do everything else.”
We just arrived back from a three week trip to England. It was a great trip and we ate very, very well for the entire three weeks. I am looking back through my photos and they are pretty much all of food!

I am not going to flood this post with endless photos of our trip as I already did that to my Instagram feed whilst we were eating our way around the UK! Here are just a few;
In my Mum's summer house in Middleham, North Yorkshire

Crumpets: the best thing to go in a toaster, ever!
We ate a lot of crumpets! We even family fought about them and there was a lot of crumpet stealing going on too. If you have no idea what a crumpet is, I will be sharing my recipe for homemade crumpets very soon on the blog.
My Mum hosted a few fabulous brunches for us in the UK and I feel that this needs to be continued now we are back in Canada. Bloody Mary's are the perfect way to get a weekend started and I will be creating some amazing brunch recipes and drinks to share with you.
I have returned to Canada a size (or two) larger around the middle but brimming with excitement for recipes I want to create and share. The food, drink and company was outstanding and it makes me glad that I get to revel in it every time we travel back for a visit.
Get ready for some British inspired food and drink over the next weeks!
