zando to the rescue

YAY for {Zando} and {Havaianas}! I have a pair of black and gold Havaianas and I have been ON THE HUNT for a silver pair but can never find where they are stocked! Same goes with my hubby. He is a size 12 and no store seems to stock his shoe size!! I have heard so much about {Zando}- All its radio ads etc so thought I'd pop on and take a browse through. They stock Havaianas! In our sizes! YIPPEE! Just placed my order and cannot wait for them to arrive.

 

 

PS: Don't let my hubby know about this sneaky purchase, keeping them hidden for his birthday :)

heart tart

Super cute and easy to do for a breakfast/ lunch or dinner party.

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Roll out your pie dough. Cut out shapes with cookie cutter.
3. Sprinkle and stir the sugar with the chopped cherries in a bowl.
4. Lay out your heart cut outs on the baking sheet. Spoon on some fresh ricotta cheese, then spoon on the cherries. Lay down the top dough, seal to press with a fork.
