This post is a little late as I wanted to make something special. Not just because it’s the weekend and we all could do with a pick me up from the week we just had. No, I wanted to make something special as this is my 200th post on this blog. Now for the super hardcore bloggers out there, that won’t seem like a lot. To me, that seems like a milestone that needs celebrating.
Over the last 200 posts, I have eaten at some of the greatest restaurants, travelled the world and covered my kitchen repetitively in flour and icing sugar. I’m lucky that I get to share with everyone my adventures into the ever exciting world of food and fun. Here’s to 200 more and then some!
