New Traditions.

I get up to a fair bit that I don’t blog about on here, I don’t want this to be a boring journal of drunken nights out and every little thing that happens here. I want to use it to update those who want to know, and be able to look back on all the trips and exciting things we did while living here.

The last month Ben and I have been spending our weekends going to markets around London, and we love it. It’s becoming a tradition and we are going to try to find a new market, every weekend for us to go and explore.

It’s a great way to explore London, even Greater London, make the most of the yummy food, clothing stalls and spend some quality time together.

A month ago our tradition started, we went and spent the day at Camden Markets, it’s such an awesome market one which we will definitely be returning too. We made extremely bad food choices but has a great day out, looking through vintage furs, buying prints to decorate our room and just having fun together.

The weekend after that we went to Bricklane and Spitalfield markets, we had a wander around through all the cute stalls, and the amazing food market, we stopped off in a pub for burgers and beers.

The weekend before last we went to the Columbia Road flower market, I brought some gorgeous Tulips for £1 a bunch, we got some calamari and tempura prawns, and some old fashioned sweets. Unfortunately we had to get home before we froze to death! So will definitely be going back when it gets warmer- if it ever does.

Last weekend I broke the tradition, I went without Ben- Annie was over for the week (which was amazing having a bestie visit!) so I met her at Broadway markets.. Only the most amazing food market I have seen yet! I brought myself a scallop and bacon bap, had some arancini balls which were both amazing! I am taking Ben back this weekend so I can get some Fejioa relish, delicious cheese, another of the baps and let Ben experience the goodness!

And so, I am going to start blogging weekly, blogging about each market we go to, all the yummy food we enjoy and the fun we have together, because if we do this every weekend for the next 1.5 years that’s a whole lot of memories that I don’t want to forget!

p.s Yes,I am definitely just as obsessed with food as I sound
