London - Proud to be british!

Theres something about London that i love so much, every time i go into London i just get excited it just all seems to be happening in London and the gorgeous city is only a short 45 min train journey.
I love the train journey into London, its been great seeing the progress of the Olympic stadium, it really is coming along and the stadiums are looking top!

I would really love to go to an olympic event next year and
enjoy the fantastic venues that have taken so long to build.
I love how London is full of tourists, on holiday sight seeing.. I sometimes think i take the city for granted because its so close and i go pretty often but this time i decided to appreciate all the little things of London, like the fantastic buildings and the gorgeous views. I felt proud to be british!
It was nice because i met Barney and we decided to go sight seeing in London instead of going shopping or doing the things we would typically do.
The weather was gorgeous, we walked around Embankment along the Thames visited the Houses of Parliament, Big ben, Trafalgar square, 10 downing street and then went for a gorgeous meal at the Aberdeen Angus steak house in Leicester square. Overall it was a beautiful day with my bezzie and has added to my many great memories and times i have spent in London.
THE CITY OF LONDON - I LOVE YOU!!

Your Fired!

                 I LOVE THE APPRENTICE!
This is definitely my favourite show i love watching it and look forward to the weekly episodes. Each week they are set new tasks and i enjoy the tasks that they get from Sir Alan. I think Sir Alan is probably a real softy inside but the cameras portray a Simon Cowell like character for entertainment. I can imagine him being a great man to work for, also imagine all the treats you would get.
Its great to see different ideas of business and ways to succeed and fail in the business world, its really inspiring and inspires me to start my own little business up...so hopefully in the future i might have my own little business set up.
The apprentice has defiantly given me some ideas.
This week i was really impressed by Glenn Ward, I thought he was a great Team manager and i loved his creative mind, Cats size- see the light was defiantly my favourite out of the two teams.

I also read that Glenn and Zoe have the hots for each other- nothing quite like an apprentice romance, it happens every year.

The guys are defiantly my favourite this year none of the girls have really stood out to me yet. I think Jim is so clever how he seems to always get out of being in the board room. Im not sure if he's simply just a great business man or whether he just has everybody wrapped around his finger. Maybe well see his true colors, but hes definatly one of my favourites in the competition so far, but that could quickly change.


My delicious food cravings!

I am seriously in love with krave!! I have literally had 3 bowels today and im now looking forward to waking up in the morning for another bowl..
Theres just something about them.. I don't know if its the soft coat that is wrapped around or the yummy chocolate inside or maybe its the way they just melt in your mouth so lush!!
Defiantly my favourite cereal at the minute- If you haven't yet indulged yourself, then you must get to your nearest supermarket and buy some!!


Also i went out for a gorgeous meal with my Babe to pizza express and seriously i have been craving dough balls ever since, so i decided i had to find out how to make them and zap my craving...
