Viva Espagne. And vacation...finally.

So...I totally can't sleep. I think it must be a mix of excitement about tomorrow and slight panic that I haven't packed, cleaned my room, finished my washing or found out if my mother has transferred my holiday money. Oh well, who cares, all I know is I am freaking excited to get on that plane and get to Madrid for a few days.

On the other hand it could be because I baked tonnes with the boys today and drank too much tea. A mixture of a caffeine and sugar high? Maybe. Made flapjack for the first time and thanks to my sister (who although is in another country, is always somehow still there for me when I need her e.g. for flapjack crisis). Here are my creations...Regular Nigella today.


It also happened to be the most gorgeous day today. Summer's day in the middle of February...Spring really has come early in Paris. I spent most of the day outside with the boys, Tiina and her boys - playing football, duck duck goose, watching J and L develop their green fingers and swinging on the tree-swing. Such a simple day but such a memorable one.

So tomorrow American au pair and I are off to Madrid, we are both super excited but aware we are ridiculous so there could be some funny stories to blog when I return. For now, I will leave you with the song I cannot stop listening to at the moment and a bunch of bisous' my fellow bloggers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3g4zas0mCMk (see blog previous to this one!)

As my good friend would say - "I'm peacing out."
