The last few weeks have been manic. New thing in work and tons of work for the shop, which is in the process of getting a revamping, loads of social engagements and a few family things. May, June and July are full of great foodie festivals and my calendar is jam packed with stuff.

I believe in Karma. I believe that for every good or bad deed we undertake in life, there are ten of those thrown back at us. If you do good, good will come your way, and as silly as this may sound, karma has ruled most of my behaviour since I was a young girl. The past few weeks have really showed me how true Karma is. It all began with the thought that Alan and I were burning the candle both ends: full time jobs, a business to run, blogs, friends, family, household chores... we were constantly on the go and very, very tired. We decided to take a break and spend some time unwinding.
