Road Trip, Chocolate Fudge Cake, and Pizza

Crumpets for breakfast



This morning, after sleeping in and fixing some crumpets for breakfast, I showed my visitors around the village – the antique shop, the bed and breakfast, the village shop, and the chocolate shop. After a quick lunch of sandwiches in our cottage, we went on a road trip. We drove north and stopped at another castle, to take some photos and some photos of the mountains and the coastline. Of course I had found a bakery in the area, so we stopped there and shared a sinfully delicious chocolate fudge cake. It was a lovely sunny day and the drive was quite pleasant.

Pizza for supper
After the drive, we went for a casual, light supper in the little pizza place, in the village. This was lovely – we didn’t have a reservation but the friendly and accommodating staff squeezed us in and put us at a table in a private room with a fireplace and plenty of antiques to look at while we waited for our food. The pizza – wood-oven thin crust pizza served on thick wooden boards, was absolutely delicious. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and it was some of the best pizza I have had. Although the desserts looked tempting, we were quite full, but figured we may have time to return on Sunday.
