Open For Business


After months of hard work and preparation, I took part in the BS4 Market on Sunday. This local produce/craft market is at the end of my road on the first Sunday of each month, so I thought it would be a good place to start my new endeavour.

This Sicilian lady baked all of these wonderful cakes, foccacia and arancini - 
we were blown away - these delights were absolutely divine.

My other favourite stall at the market was Bella Boho Gifts, who specialise in die cut designs. They use some really cool fabrics, wallpapers and found materials behind, to show through.

These art works would make wonderful presents - not just for baby gifts, but for weddings, birthdays etc, you name it :-)

Thankfully my mum came up from Cornwall to help me out, and Sam took care of Eve all day. The sun was shining on and off throughout the day and I really enjoyed talking to people about my terrariums. I was given positive feedback and even made a profit, so I am pleased that it's got off to a good start. I'm working on a website, so watch this space!

Daddy brought Eve out to see my stall, which was really nice. I had taken our kitchen table to use for my stall, so she wouldn't eat her lunch at home. Dad set Eve's lunch up on her little play table, but she refused to eat it. We were all quite tired by the end of the day, but Eve was really pleased to see me. She had a lovely time playing with her toy shop, pretending to be like Mummy which was cute. We had a nice half hour together before bed time, tickling and laughing.

Eve and I had a nice time together on Saturday morning. She helped me water the plants in the garden and then we went to the park together.



Making 'sand castles' with a turtle and shell which we found in the sand pit. 
She's getting much better at flipping them over, and was very excited when she saw her creations.

Daddy and I even got to spend some time together on Friday - 
just us two for lunch, chatting with beers - bliss...

This morning Eve ate all of her cereal at breakfast, for the first time in the last two weeks. She's finally better and much happier. Hurrah.
