Bakingbelle

Hi my name is Alicia and it has been a very busy year for me. So far in 2014 I've bought a house, gotten married, gone on a honeymoon to New York & Disneyworld in Florida which I loved.

As now I have abit more free time to myself I thought this would be a great place to connect with people all over the world and how nice it would be to recieve some actual letters instead of just bills!

I'm a reformed shoppaholic and I love baking sweets for family & friends to enjoy and I'm currently on a home made ice cream spree, trying out a new recipe every week.

I love the idea of swapping tried & true recipes, good quality makeup products and anything pet related. We have a 10 week old Samoyed puppy who I love to bits but once upon a time I would have loved a teacup pig or bunny rabbit as a pet.

I go through phases of reading non stop, especially if its a book I'm engrossed in, I'll spend every free minute reading until I finish it so always open to book recommendations.

I'm also abit of a girly girl, I like cute and pretty things, florals, small birds such as swallows, blue wrens and pink robins, Laura Ashley homewares & furnishings, anything high tea related- teapots, teacups, cake plates especially gold rimmed, decorative cupcake liners, pretty paper napkins

Total cliche', I love alittle bit of everything, right now I'm listening to Lana Del Ray, Lorde and Foster the People, Florence & the Machine

My husband & I are big tv buffs we're currently watching Game of Thrones, Castle, Grimm, Modern Family, The Neighbours, Orange is the New Black

I wish I had more time for crafts as I enjoy scrapbooking, card making & candle making. I enjoy mostly paper crafts and have a collection of pretty paper both A4 and scrapbook size

I would also love to recieve chocolate bars or candy for my dear husband who has the biggest sweet tooth of anyone I know! Pretty much any flavour goes except Fruity fillings, Mint & White Chocolate. I'm partial to anything peanut butter flavoured •favourite colours are duck egg blue, pink, gold and rose gold metallics, most pastels •favourite makeup brands are Benefit, Nars, Urban Decay and Sephora especially their eyeliners (no black please) and lipsticks (any colour I like trying new lippy shades), no lip glosses please, I have more lipgloss than I could possibly use due to a lipgloss phase I was going through.

•zombies, goth things, horror themed items •bugs and insects of any kind •incense sticks •figurines and nic nacs •skincare products eg eye cream, moisturiser, facial masks as I have sensitive skin and most products don't agree with me unfortunately. Same goes for foundation
