I am skipping off to London this weekend for a long-planned trip with VeggieKate.
And by ‘long-planned’ I mean it’s my 30th birthday present (thanks Kate!).
Except I’m now nearly 32.
We are useless besoms. Still, life gets in the way and all that… We’ve respectively had house moves, country moves, weddings and new jobs getting in the way of our chumly fun and that trip just slipped down the list – until now.
All I know is – there will be food. Oh yes. Lots of food. And wine.
See you when I get back – have a good weekend everyone

Just got into the hotel and my foodie rundown so far is a Krispy Kreme donut. Hmmmmm. Something’s gone a bit wrong…

Oh have a fab time! And a Ben’s cookie at Covent Garden will nix out the Krispy Kreme, honest

I’ll look forward to the report when you get back (appropriately ‘edited’ I’m sure).

I’ve recently turned over a “must eat more vegetarian food and less using chicken as unnecessary filler” leaf, so thanks for the link to Veggie Kate. I will now lose another day to archive reading.

Hiya Catherine.
I reckon you’re right – although I missed out on the Ben’s cookie experience
But the donuts were fluffy clouds of sugar-coated nothing. I can see why it would be easy to eat a lot of them though!
Hey Deb.
I got a couple of photos but nothing great – still, there will be an update soon, I hope
Hi Rachel.
I hang my head in shame. We figured we wouldn’t go to Borough Market this time as neither of us could really take stuff back and we knew we’d be tempted. Big mistake! There’s always next time…
Hey Trekkie
Edited? I would only ever give a warts and all report
Hiya Maz.
I’m on a similar kick
In fact, it’s funny, Kate and I were talking about this the other day… We used to be flatmates and we clearly left a deep impression on each other – she got me eating a lot less meat and I started up her cookbook fetish!
Hey Yvonne.
Twas a good time
I’ll get something posted soon. And we saw so many more places wherever we went that we wanted to try out. Definitely requires a return trip, or two, or three…
