Buckets Of Spring

- More sun, more salads and more flowers.  

Spring has sprung

Spring, is finally here! BBC weather has sustained double figures for at least a week. C and I went for a leisurely walk and it was blllisss. The sky was blue with bouncy cotton clouds, the sun shone and we were armed with our sunglasses. 




As you can see the crops are green and growing fast, every time we go for a walk we notice them standing a little bit taller, prouder, fatter.

Brighton's Best Ice Cream

The British seaside and sweet treats go hand-in-hand. Brighton Rock? Maybe. But Italian ice cream at Marrocco's? Always.
Now, I do consider myself a bit of an ice cream connoisseur and let me inform you after tasting the majority of the ice cream on offer in Brighton, Marrocco's Italian Geltato comes out top. 

On this spring morning my wonderful mum and I caught some rays but stayed wrapped up from the cold sea wind. After my obligatory mint chocolate chip scoop I tossed back and forth between the 23 others. Choices, choices...



Ice cream is just so loveable; in the same way cake plays a role in celebrations (okay, a major role in celebrations) ice cream makes things feel like a special occasion. 
You know, it might be drizzly but we're on the beach, hey! Lets have ice cream. Or Britain is finally hot, hey! Lets cool down and have ice cream! Wow, my lips are blue and I'm bloody freezing! You know what would cheer us up? Ice cream!

If it is a sunny day (especially in the school holidays) then be prepared for a wee queue out the door. Its worth the wait though,  you can find Marrocco's here

PS my sunglasses are from Topshop and my mum's are a few years old from Chanel; these ones are pretty similar.  


Saturday

Brighton Beach Huts


Today must be the first day of spring; isn't it about time the sun shone!? We strolled along Brighton beachfront from Kemptown to Hove amongst the joggers, rollerbladers and misfits. The sun was beaming off the sea and some brave souls even faced the 5ÂșC sea. It'll be a few more months before I'm bullied brave enough to take the plunge into the English Channel, but boy, oh boy, I cannot wait.
