Today I’m sharing some delicious coffee and macarons (a quaint little patisserie shop called Pure has opened in Rhodes and I’m obsessed with their white chocolate and cranberry cookies!) And a sneak peak from something new that I have been working on with a close friend of mine 🙂 I’m super excited about this project and…
Just a track from Editors, from the album of the same name which I totally loved last year! And a quick note before our workshop tomorrow to say I am a little bit stressed but happy too because you know what, 40 people enrolled!!! We were thinking about 10 or 15 max but it is…
