Sunny-Sunny-Sunday

I hate to sound repetitive, but I just can not get over the weather we have been getting the past few days! I am actually a little bit sunburnt and it's March! It's still officially winter for another 2 weeks but it has felt like we're in the depths of May this weekend.

Today was my Mother-in-law's birthday and she had some friends around throughout the afternoon, I made scones (savoury and sweet) and Arjan made little cocktail stick tomato-mozarella snacks and the sun shone with all its might.
But yesterday was even more glorious, temperatures were in the 20's and people from far and wide were shaking off the cobwebs to go for a walk or cycle along the canal near Meers. Arjan and I joined the crowds and walked the long way round to the Brouwerij De Fontein (Fountain Brewery) where we spent a leisurely couple of hours before making a (slightly wobbly) beeline for home.
I know this post may be a little same-y but we got some pretty nice shots and I wanted to share them. 

We ran in to Arjan's dad, Alex, on his way back from his Sunday cycle.



These are some of my favourite pictures to date, Arjan took them!





This bread was made with the grain left after brewing the beer and the dip was made with herbs from their own garden, it was delicious. 


I made friends with this slobbery little guy, he was pretty cool. 





Relaxing in the garden after a long, hard day.
 I'm going back to Yorkshire tomorrow for my Mum's birthday and so I'll get back to doing proper posts again (instead of just photo dumps of nice weather)! I'll be trying out lots of new recipes so don't be surprised if I do a lot of foodie posts.
