We had a week of warm sunny days here in England only to have friday be cold and rainy.  As we had planned a bbq on the lawns behind the Royal Crescent, I was quite sad to see the rain clouds.  My smile has returned this morning with seeing the beautiful sunshine has returned for the weekend.  It looks like we will be returning to Monkton Farleigh for our first fete in England as expats.  I look forward to showing you photos and a recap from our adventures on our country walk today.

Hi everyone! My name is Tara and I am the sole person behind Starletta Designs, a handmade jewelry design business. I strive to make affordable jewelry using high quality materials like gemstones, sterling silver and 14kt gold fill. The pieces I create are always limited edition or one of a kind, as I am always creating new designs! I also write a blog; shockingly called Starletta Designs as well. The blog is a mix of personal and business topics.

Hi there, I'm Rachel, the blogger behind With Love, Rachel. I write about all of the things that make life wonderful, from adventures in traveling to fabulous shoes. I drink more wine than I probably should, I consider bargain shopping one of my talents, and I often think out my plan for how to survive the zombie apocalypse. I'm also training for my first ever marathon and sharing the challenges that come with it.

The Nectar Collective documents my life as a California girl living and growing in Tokyo, Japan. 

I recently got a dog named Monja, who has a fetish for worn socks and is basically the sidekick to my silly and happy life. I write all about positivity, travel, love, dogs, DIY projects, and how we can each spread our unique nectar to the rest of the world. Come say hi, and have a bright day!
