{ Remember.Remember }

If there is one thing I miss about England 

{other than my family, friends and of course our delicious food --- apparently Americans think its disgusting ... they clearly haven't tried Nando's!!}

... its Bonfire Night... 

{I know i'm a day late --- but I was so busy yesterday and everyones pictures on instagram were making me incredibly jealous!! }

As a child I would always be more excited for Bonfire night, than I would for Halloween!! 

How could you not?? 

{When you can make a live sized person to burn on a fire!!}

In my Childhood, we would always spend the weekend before making our 

Guy Fawkes to burn!! 

{If you don't know what bonfire night is about, a man name Guy Fawkes and some Catholics planned to blow up Parliament with the King, so they hung, drawn and quarted the men, and burned them!!}

Here is why I love Bonfire night...

unlimited Bonfires,

Fireworks,

Sparklers,

Bonfire Toffee,

Banoffee Pie,

Toffee Apples {or caramel apples for you yanks},

Jacket Potatoes with homemade Chilli,

Friends and Family,

Hand Warmers,

Freezing cold nights,

and the chance to wear your wellies!!

Next year we are planning to have a bonfire over here... and I can't wait!!!
