Mushroom Risotto

To me, making a risotto has always sounded like a lot of work, (unless you just add water to a packet)! So, generally, I would only eat it when in a restaurant! However, when it tastes this good, the hard work is rewarding! There has been lots of complaints about Jamie Olivers 30 Minute Meals not actually being do-able in 30 mins but however long it takes you to make just this risotto, it is totally worth all the effort! You can find the recipe here. Serve it with roasted ham - mmm, so yum!! Let me know if you try it out!

Bright Whites

{click image to enlarge}

Who doesn't love white? It is the only colour which looks good with everything & highlights other colours! Can be used for a summery look or a wintery look. It is the colour of purity & cleanliness. Step into The White Company. I could spend hours browsing the shop & website - I love the fresh, clean, crisp whites & the fact the items are surprisingly affordable. All the items are gorgeous so I struggled to choose just a few off the website to show! One of my best friends recently gave me the most adorable outfit for Thea from the Little White Company - will post photos once she fits into it:)
