First day on the slopes


I am pleased to announce that today I went out on the slopes for the first time in the season. I had such a great time and thoroughly enjoyed skiing with people that challenged me to go faster.

We skied from 11.30 am until about 4 pm before going to Vincent's for a quiet red wine before starting work. We also made a short visit to Loop Bar in Tignes where we all had drinks and refreshed ourselves before it was time to hit the slopes once again. So much fun!

This evening I went up to my chalet and our chefs cooked up the most delicious dinner party for us. We had sausages in a tomato sauce, a beautiful salad, vinaigrette potatoes and a melted camembert. Delish!

Sarah and I tried to  bake a cake for tomorrow's afternoon tea and I'm disappointed to say I kind of screwed it up. It looked good when it went into the oven, but it turns out that the 3 tablespoons of baking powder I put into the mixture were in fact only supposed to be 3 teaspoons. Oops. So the cakes were a massive flop (literally) and I will need to rebake them tomorrow.


I am finding that my days are getting more and more enjoyable the longer that I stay here on my season. Lots of fun and hopefully it only gets better!
