Almond crusted stuffed chicken breast

When the mister and I started the Whole30 we were manic to find new (easy) recipes we could use. The stuffed chicken was a crowd pleaser and once you've made it once, it's a cinch to whip up. We've made 2 minor changes to the recipe; prosciutto instead of bacon (it's surprisingly difficult to get bacon with nothing added to it, especially sugar) and we add sun dried tomatoes. Yum!

Afternoon tea

Afternoon tea has got to be one of my favorite British traditions. The girls and I have started convening once a month for a tea session, which I not only love because I get to explore new places but it also fuels my growing obsession with all things British. So far we've visited Betty Blythe and Bea of Bloomsbury, both of which have had a cute retro feel (although Betty's was cuter) to them and excellent cakes and treats. I can't wait for the next one!

The Hour season 2

The first season of The Hour was pretty good, but man am I hooked on season 2! The characters have blossomed (go Marnie!) and the introduction of Randall has really spiced things up. If you aren't watching, catch up on iplayer right now.

Gusto and Relish

Just up the street from our flat is a cute local deli, Gusto & Relish, that sells delicious cured meats, cheeses, pastas, desserts and my favorite, home made dips. Every time I go in (to buy the butternut squash and tahini dip, which is to die for) I am tempted by their amazing desserts table. So far I've been able to resist...
