We are heartbroken by what happened in Southport today.

My thoughts go out to those affected by today's horrific events in Southport.
I always look out to the town on the other side of the Ribble Estuary from my home town and it's awful that this has happened so close to us.
This is the view of Southport from the dunes at St Annes Beach.

Can anyone answer this?

A very easy game of Spot The Brit.

Who is watching the game today? We are hoping to get it at home but if we are unsuccessful, we’ll have to find a pub. I’m guessing Sean Ryan’s will have it.

For once I’m wishing we still had the cafe so we could watch the game together. Michael and I will be watching from home.

A message from the King

My wife and I join all our family in wishing you the warmest congratulations on reaching the final of the U.E.F.A. European Championship - and in sending our very best wishes for Sunday’s match.

If I may encourage you to secure victory before the need for any last minute wonder-goals or another penalties drama, I am sure the stresses on the nation’s collective heart rate and blood pressure would be greatly alleviated!

Good luck, England.

Sadly, I have to not let myself go there on my next trip. I’d have to buy it all.

About to have lunch at and tour an organic farm. They are going to teach us how to milk a goat. I’ll report back.

Currently in Puerto Rico for the first time in years. Look what was in my room at the Regency Grand Reserve Dorado. It’s always nice to have a good cuppa when you’re traveling. It balances the rum cocktails!

Love it!

Name a tastier road in Britain. I’ll wait.

This sounds gross but I probably wouldn’t say that if it were coffee.

It’s a good day for my homemade ‘tea, milk and two sugar’ ice lollies

Somebody gave me a bunch of plastic 3-tier tea stands. They are perfect for children or an outdoor party. Would anyone like them/some? I’m giving them away.

Wow.

Cry ‘God for Harry, England, and Saint George!’ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Happy St. George’s Day!

Happy St George's Day!

England is a great country which is home to some amazing countryside as well as heritage and traditions that go back centuries and millennia and also a rich culture that has been influenced by the cultures from around the world.
St George who was born in modern day Turkey is the patron saint of England and of countries, regions and cities around the world. Although he was a revered saint who was executed for protesting against Christian persecution, Muslims in the Middle Eastern have associated him with Al-Khidr who is a wise mystical figure in the Quran which makes St George a fitting patron saint of modern England.
Here's his flag flying above Lancaster Priory.

I'm so excited to announce who is going into our old spot at 1640 6th Avenue. Have you been to Sweet Desires in the plaza across the street? If so, all the yummy goodies you've enjoyed there are made by M Bakeri which will now be opening in Sealantro's old spot. I'm so excited. They even want us to come in and put on an afternoon tea from time to time. How great is that?
Opening is planned for June. I'll keep you posted.

Truth.

Being British is having your own one name for a bread roll and thinking all the others are just silly.

Interesting.

We are organizing the manuscript and editing the recipies. Not long now! You’ll be able to make all your Sealantro favorites.

Ouch!

I miss all those pies we used to make. I can’t wait to finish our recipe book. Maybe we’ll do a Pie-A-Thon to launch it.

For my vegan followers, although it's absolutely delicious and everyone loves it, this was my favorite dessert at the retreat I went to in Greece in October.

Raw Vegan Chocolate Tart from Euphoria Retreat, Greece I believe that chocolate is the best of all food groups, but I like good quality chocolate so I can keep my intake on the healthy side. Imagine my delight on discovering this delectable and seeming…

These were on my list if we’d stayed open.

A Really Good Irish Coffee Recipe to Warm You Up on St. Patrick’s Day I’m pretty sure I had my first Irish Coffee before I was legal drinking age (thankfully it’s 18 in the UK). I thought I was so posh, sipping away after dinner. I fell in love with the s…

Last year, I made over 100 loaves of Irish Soda Bread for St. Patrick's Day. Thankfully it was very easy to make, and even easier to eat. However, I've lost my recipe. Aghadoe Heights Hotel & Spa to the rescue. Their recipe is almost identical to mine and you know that it is really authentic. Add Aghadoe to your wish list, and enjoy making your own soda bread this year.

Irish Soda Bread from Aghadoe Heights, Killarney, Co. Kerry I absolutely love freshly baked, still warm, soda bread with a chunk of cheese or a bowl of piping hot soup. Thankfully Irish soda bread is really easy to make. Seriously, you can make it daily if …

This is why I would never eat crusts. I ended up with curly hair anyway.
