I came back to London last weekend. It is really feeling like Autumn now. I spent a few days catching up with work, blogging, laundry, shopping for Caribbean essentials like bug spray, sun screen and bikinis and tonight it’s packing again for honeymoon in St. Lucia! All kinds of excitement these days. Jorge and I did manage to squeeze in an amazing 8-course tasting menu at London’s second best restaurant, Hibiscus as part of the Malibu #BestSummerEver campaign. I’ve scheduled a mouth-watering post about that one for next week when I’m away.
That’s about all of my news this week because I have tons to do, so tell me: What are you up to this weekend? Anything exciting happening next week?
