Baby loves...Spitalfields City Farm


cup of fresh Fennel tea

The farm is usually very calm, with lots of toys for the little ones, donkeys, various animals & even two treehouses to climb.

but there's no cafe!

so...last week I organised a pop up tea hut for one day. It was fun picking mint, etc from the farm to make fresh herb teas for mums and various passerby.

I'm still deciding whether to run it through the summer...

Baby loves...car boots


last year's art car boot on Brick Lane

The Chiswick Car boot this past weekend - first Sunday of every month - was a real bumper bootie. Scored some retro 70s coats for the tot at bargain prices.

I just came across one every Sunday in Pimlico - looks interesting to sell at:

My friend Katie has been buying up goodies France-side in Calais - she says the French version of car booties - brocantes - are a treasure trove. Hmm...I feel a weekend break coming on....here's a list of the dates
