A week in photos: if music be the food of love, play on!

The RSC
This week has gone by really quickly! I have been to the Bard's home town of Stratford-upon-Avon and treated to a lovely meal at Café Rouge by Mark's parents...


Demi poulet with garlic butter and french fries
Warmed cherry and frangipane tart with crème Chantilly.

...been to see my uncle play in the Birmingham Philharmonic Orchestra; they are always brilliant but this time they really outdid themselves with some gorgeous pieces of music...


... had an amazing Valentine's Day with Mark...


...fallen in love with some new make-up...
I'm blaming Laura for my new found addiction to Burt's Bees!
..and tried some new recipes...




Roast chicken with roasted onion, mushroom, carrots and parsnips with Mediterranean bread and wilted spinach
A very foodie week for me! I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind words after Danni's departure. I will obviously miss my partner-in-crime but I am really committed to Frills 'n' Spills and I have some exciting new features planned, so keep your eyes peeled! 

What have you done this week? Have you eaten as much as me?!

Ooooh, I love the fcuk whipped body butter! I got some for Christmas, and find the scent really quite heady and exotic, and love how easily it soaks into the skin: enjoy! x

I'm a big fan of Burt's bees too! Can't get enough of the stuff but I've never tried the pomegranate lip balm like the one in the pic. Also, the Cafe Rouge food looks delish!!

Winnie- It doesn't taste or smell much like it but I just love the colour and the texture :) The Cafe Rouge food was gorgeous too! :D
