brit at heart,
horse girl,
sarcasm at its finest.

I believe...

That laughing can cure anything. That you should always keep your word. Sometimes traditional is the best..the fads will fade. I believe that sitting under the stars is good for your soul, and nothing beats a good dessert. I believe that love is unconditional but love requires work. I believe your spouse should be your best friend that you can grow old with. I want to be that funny old couple in a restaurant throwing our straw wrappers at each other.

I love England [I have family over there on my mothers side]...specifically the countryside. I love hot black tea, reading a good book [if I find the time!] and a good fluffy blanket.
