  • Super salads! 🥑 ❣️ Wow wee, this salad blew my mind - Avocado, Tomatoes, Blueberries, Cucumber, Goats Cheese and Lettuce -Amazing combination 👏 We visited some wonderful friends in Mallorca for lunch and this was one of their creations (along with another watermelon & spinach salad, homemade pizzas, grilled fish and lots more) - Wowza, feeling inspired to make some fresh salad creations when I get home, and to add fruit! YUM! 😋
  • Hola! 🇪🇸 In Italy I have grown so used to saying “Ciao” hundreds of times a day, for hello and goodbye. Ciao-cia-ciao-ciao! 🇮🇹 It’s been cool being in Spain and having something new to enjoy saying... Hola! 👋 It’s such a spunky happy word that feels really good to say 😃 Hola amico!
  • Mallorcan Mouthfulls! 😋 While on my first visit to Palma de Mallorca in Spain, a friend from the island suggested I try their traditional pastry, the “Ensaïmada”. Being a more-than-keen Food Traveler, I kept my eyes peeled for one. 👉While visiting the lovely town Soller, much to my delight, just when I needed a tea break, the perfect little Pasticceria pops up with Ensaïmadas on display, yes please! 👏 Light and fluffy, perfect with an afternoon tea, mmmm how I love discovering new places through local food 😋 🇪🇸 #nomnomnom
  • Yes I Will! 💪 Love this simple quote by Will Smith - It may seem obvious but when I think seriously about some of the bigger goals I want to achieve, I haven’t truly thought about many of them actually happening in totality. 💯 I may want to achieve something, but when I really focus in on the goal and say to myself seriously “Sian, you really can do that. You can get there, no matter how far away it seems” it motivates me more. 👉Saying it with conviction changes it from a dreamy fantasy to something important I can actually achieve. Saying “Yes I can 💪” helps me face up to it and see myself at that awesome place and I feel committed to really get there. ☀️So thanks Will, Yes I can and Yes I Will! 🤝
  • Rocking simplicity 🥚 Man oh man, I can’t believe I didn’t like eggs growing up... I am so glad that my man renewed my love for them by showing me how to cook them just right - Now a good clean scramble is back on the menu... regularly! ☀️ 👏
  • Perfect citrus rise 🍋 As much as I love coffee, fresh lemon water is the best morning start for sure 👏 Especially this particular morning when I get to pick fresh lemons from my dads tree, what a treat!
  • Frutti-tooty 🍌Mmm the best light lunch - banana, nectarine, grapes and cashew nuts - Nutty Fruit bowls are nomnomnom 😋
  • Hello Mallorca! 🇪🇸 The pretty streets on this Spanish Island invite me in, and I can’t help but walk and walk and walk, wondering what’s around the next corner - Such a lovely island to stroll through! 💕
  • The No. 1 dessert to eat in Napoli - Baba! 😋 The Neapolitan Baba has become an icon of the city - When you visit, you’ll see this dessert everywhere, in all shapes and sizes - small to really big, with and without toppings, as a cake, you name it! 👏 The Baba is an oven-baked sweet soaked in an alcoholic liquid (traditionally rum). They are also surprisingly light and fluffy, and a perfect pick-me-up in the afternoon after exploring the city by foot. 👉 I usually get the classic mushroom-shaped baba when in Napoli but when entering the magical Gran Caffè Gambrinus, with their tasty selection, I had to try this Baba con Crema (Baba with Cream) - Oh me oh my! 😃
