I'm always two steps ahead in the planning department. Something I've said I want to do for a while now and keep talking about is to take all of my Lilliput Lane cottages I've collected over the years, map them out (or at least most of the ones I love), and make a trip to the UK all about visiting them.
For those who don't know what these are, they are miniature versions of real places in the United Kingdom. I've collected everything from Edinburgh Castle, to Buckingham Palace, to Little Moreton Hall....places I've been, and places I would love to go to. My aunt from England got me started when i was young, and now I can't visit them without picking up a couple. Mainly because they just don't sell them many places in the US.
So, I guess I'll be adding this to my list of things to do in my spare time. Just another reason to visit my favorite place on earth.
A peek inside one girl's love for Britain (and some random bits and bobs I come across that I love)- from a British girl at heart, living in Chicago with a nationality identity crisis. I started this blog to share my obsession with all things British - and I do mean ALL things - fashion, food, culture, history, literature, the Royal Family, stately homes - but I can also get totally off topic, so don't be alarmed if you see the occasional post that has nothing to do at all with the UK!
