shopping spree....

The problem with being a market trader is all the temptation. I go to all these wonderful markets, full of fabulous things made by lovely people, and come home laden with goodies. So, having been to two markets this weekend, and these being the first two of the year, it was inevitable that I'd get carried away. Here's a flavour of what I came home with:

- fabulous sheep and Jersey cows' cheese from Wootton Dairy, cheesemakers from a local farm in Somerset:


- two fabulous prints from local artist Alce Harfield;
- some lovely pottery from Woodchester Fine Foods;
- and some divine lavender and orange handmade soap and lavender and neroli handcream from The Summer Hill Soap Company, from just down the road in Ashton:


Next weekend, I'll be at Thornbury Food Fair on Saturday and Love Food Spring Festival on Sunday. If this weekend's anything to go by, I'll be bankrupt by the following Monday!

Not complaining though....it's great to be spoilt for choice....
