We made our annual trip to Tent London
yesterday. Battling Bertie’s pushchair through thick crowds of
Shoreditch ‘trendies’ and inhaling various around-the-world cuisine
aromas; which made me very hungry, so we got two vanilla custard
doughnuts from St John Bread & Wine. Oh my, they were delicious (I didn't eat both)! The best doughnut you will ever taste in my opinion.
Anyway,
we made it to Brick Lane and had a pleasant browse around this year’s
show, which I feel didn’t live up to previous years...but again, that’s
just my opinion. It was great to see Famille Summerbelle there, and lovely to watch Bertie playing with Miller Goodman’s famous shapes. He wasn’t keen on leaving the table (he kept saying “mine, mine”) but a rice-cake bribe did the trick!
After this, we stepped back into our spaceship and flew home....(referring to the Gherkin there, in case you didn’t get me...I’m so hilarious.....). I hope your weekends were fun and you have a great week. I turn 33 in a few days. Yikes! :)
Oh my! Those doughnuts....Yum, they look good. I would've eaten both....
ReplyDeletelovely photos!
ReplyDeleteI visited Tent last year and was gutted that I couldnt make it again this year, but you saying it wasnt as good made me feel slightly better about missing it! Looks like the trip would have been worth it though just for those doughnuts! yum!x
ReplyDeleteHow i wish i was in London in Autumn! Love that skyline photo. And those doughnuts look soooo good.
ReplyDeletebeautiful images and those doughnuts are just perfect!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, fun photos. Though I really could have done without seeing those doughnuts... that cinnamon sugar! x
ReplyDeleteOn what planet have I been living that I've never hearf of Tent London?! I'll have to try to be in London this time next year to go. The egg cup-looking vases you photographed are so quirky - I love 'm!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful ceramics! I always wondered if that building had a nickname, it seems highly appropriate. Happy upcoming birthday!
ReplyDeleteI definitely need to go go London soon! Haven't been for months :) xx

Those planters are adorable. I keep seeing donut pictures today - and they all look delicious. Maybe it's a sign.
ReplyDeletep.s. you have quite a bit accomplished for almost 33!
I think I will need to hunt me down one of those doughnuts. Yum. Love the spaceship too ;)
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures!
ReplyDeleteI want to be 33 again (oh, to hell with real age, let's say I'm still 33, but then again 36 is cool too) ...lucky you! I wish you the best for this new year :)
Wow! Your photography just keeps getting better and better! Have an amazing Birthday! xx

I'm with you on Tent this year, I came away rather confused, think its lost its way a bit. v x
ReplyDeleteI love your photographs. The top one is beautiful!
ReplyDelete- Charlotte x
The doughnuts look so deliciouuus *.*
ReplyDeleteOhh the first photo is gorgeous! Wish you a happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteumm that is sad, I only saw Tent when it was still setting up and i thought it had a lot of good designers and products this year, in fact I had to rush to set up my pown stand at 100% design and left as if I wish i was exhibiting there instead. I can not complain i had a very good show myself, but I will defenetly consider tent for next year, still one of my fav.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great photo of the gerkin....wonderful compositio, love it!
ReplyDeleteYou managed to make donuts look good! And donuts are my least favorite food on the planet, along with Brussels sprouts.
ReplyDeleteThose flower pots are so damn cute!
Oh, and thanks for featuring me on your list of October list!
Awesome planters! Who makes them?
ReplyDeleteSO nice for stopping by our stand at Tent! Beautiful photos! Bon Anniversaire :)
ReplyDeleteEverything here is so perfect. I myself want to play with Miller Goodman's playshapes- although my son Presley would probably enjoy them as he is older as well!
ReplyDeleteHaha, so funny to read about Bertie's "mine, mine!" We have exactly the same going on here...! Have a good weekend and happy birthday.
