* go nuts for donuts *

Tomorrow is one of the most important days of the year in my new life as an adopted 'Merican - National Doughnut Day! Donuts - doughnuts - have become such gourmet delights that I wanted to share my absolute favourites with you my dear, hungry, sweet-toothed readers. 

My London-based mate Ryan over at Borough 22 is a whisking wonderman, whipping up the most beautiful and glossy doughnuts {as well as Brownies and cupcakes} which are "free-from" all the nasties. Which means we can have double the amount. Which is fine by me. Check out Ryan's website and Instagram for all the ordering and delivery info; if you are in Old London Town you might even get your box delivered by the baker boy himself.

{Yes folks, all the pretty things of this fair city will be checking out London Fashion Week from today...my gorgeous friends at AfroBoudoir will be there so be sure to check out their highlights from the shows. I'm already a little too keen on the Antoni&Alison simple dresses embellished to seem like walking mood boards. Top tip...listen to Beyonce Single Ladies whilst watching this foxy but indecisive lady in the illustration try on her outfits...such fun as Miranda's mum would say!}

How much am I looking forward to wearing stripes and shorts and sitting by the river drinking G&Ts? A-lot...especially as my part of Ye Olde London has the annual Boat Race roaring through it in April. Can't wait!}
