When Cupcakes Go Wrong...

Oohh iyya!
So, being summer and all, a picnic was on the cards....I clocked onto some "burger" cupcakes recently, whilst indulging in a google-a-thon, so thought I would attempt to churn some of these bad-boys out....
As you can see, they didn't quite go to plan! What a mess....I thought I could execute these with panache instead they looked SICK. As if happened, it pissed it down with rain and the picnic was cancelled....they did taste GOURMET though!

In other news....I went to Edinburgh which was lovely! It had been years since I'd rocked some Scottish delights, so it was fun! I was especially excited that the National Gallery up there hosts my FAVOURITE ever painting in the world....Rubens' 'Feast of Herod'...I first spotted it when I was 16 on a school trip and Rubens has been my favourite artist since!



Also to report...I jumped for joy when I finally found Rainbow Tapioca Pearls in the shop!!! That means I can make my very own Bubble Tea!!Wooo! I'd like to add, it is a bit of a chore....so I might just whack the kettle on for a Tetleys in future!
Love and Sago Pudding!

Ginger Pigs, Teal Locks and Bubble Tea!

Ooohhhh IYYYAAA!!!!
Ok....just a few random stuffsss as the past couple of weeks have been super busy.....working on a plethora of bizarre projects including listening to a bunch of people singing "Aint no stopping us now" (ON REPEAT EEEEK!), Regina Spektor and an abundance of photoshop.....there was also an incident involving a flood in the corner shop downstairs...."I'm going to KILL YOU...Bitch" just about sums that whole fandango up!!!!
Aside from that I am tropically happy to have reverted back to my Bubble Tea ways recently....The milk that the dudes seem to use tastes kind of sick...and not SICK in a good way....in honesty I just like choking on the Sago pearls and seeing which pot luck plastic lid I'm going to get....as you can see above...I was dealt a right corker last week!
Also in the mix was a magical day of London farm visiting...I wanted to visit the ginger pigs....but the temperatures were unbelievably exotic that day so they were just lounging around being lazy and rolling around in shit.

This month has also seen two magical hair colours....to avoid passport dramas when flying last month I went back to blonde...so my first mission upon return was to whip in some rainbow action....First was pink....then turquoise...my two favourite colours (well I also love yellow, it's the colour of lemons and Lemon Meringue Pie is my all time favourite dessert.)....
Here are the latest colours over the past couple of months....get yourself to Dalston and embrace the Pantone actionnnnn......FYI prepare to be asked by children on the bus if you are wearing a wig.
