First attempt at a Bolo Rei and I feel chuffed with the result. Now I know a few things: (1) It's actually easy to make; (2) it will take the better part of the day to make; (3) bake it at low heat to retain moisture. Orders for Christmas 2017 open on December 1st, 2017 😉 #beingportuguese #culináriaportuguesa #portuguesecuisine #portugal #portuguese #bolorei #boloreinatal (at Alberton - Brackendowns)

26 Weeks Letter Challenge: “S”

Here is my offering this week, representing the letter “S”. Definitely much easier than “Q” a couple of weeks ago. I published this photo on Instagram this week. The sea is mesmerising and I upped the structure and saturation a bit to see the effect of the surf a bit better. The sea is mesmerising as always – previously published on Instagram©2016 Regina Martins Sea, sun, surf and sand…need I say…
